we examine how the deregulation of growth-promoting and growth-inhibiting signaling pathways contributes to tumorigenesis. Mutations-

A. A mutation that alters a single amino acid (valine to glutamine) in the transmembrane region of the HER2 receptor

B. A deletion that causes loss of the extracellular ligand-binding domain in the EGF receptor Results-

i. dimerization of the receptor, even in the absence of the normal EGF-related ligand, transforming it into the oncoprotein, a constitutively active kinase

ii. to constitutive activation of the kinase activity of the resulting oncoprotein

iii. no dimerization, even in the presence of the normal EGF-related ligand, repression of kinase activity

which of the following results are displayed after these mutations?

A researcher would like to map the location of galE and trpA genes in a new species of bacterium that appears to be closely related to E. coli. He decides to use cotransduction, and generates appropriate donor and recipient strains. He is disappointed when cotransduction is not seen in his experiement. What is the most reasonable explanation for this situation?
