The relationship between shortened telomeres and stem cell depletion has been seen in degenerative diseases such as mouse muscular dystrophy,

I) When____ is activated by damaged telomeres, DNA replication halts, and if the repair doesn’t work, apoptosis is initiated. If the cell is a stem cell or some other rapidly replicating cell, this will reduce the numbers of cells produced, and the lack of stem cells will produce an “aged” phenotype.

 II) When ____ is activated by damaged telomeres, DNA replication halts, repair do its work, apoptosis is inhibited. If the cell is a stem cell or some other rapidly replicating cell, this will increase the numbers of cells produced, and then these cells will produce an “aged” phenotype.

The following statements are made to describe the biosynthetic pathway of IAA;

a)  IPA pathway involves a deamination reaction to form IPA, followed by a decarboxylation reaction to form indole-3-acetaldehyde (IAld) and then oxidized to IAA by a specific dehydrogenase

b) IAN pathway is similar to the IPA pathway, except that the order of the deamination and decarboxylation reactions is reversed, and different enzymes are involved

c) IAM pathway  involves the two enzymes  tryptophan monooxygenase and IAM hydrolase

d) In the IAN pathway, tryptophan is first converted to indole-3-acetaldoxime and then to indole-3-acetonitrile. The enzyme that converts IAN to IAA is called nitrilase
