In humans, albinism (unpigmented skin, hair, and eyes) is due to an enzymatic deficiency, and it is an autosomal recessive trait. Suppose that in a small country of one million people (“Generation 1”), there are 500 aa albinos and 9000 Aa heterozygous carriers. What is the probability that a child will be albino if: Both parents are non-albino members of Generation 2?

Two-component system regulating response to low Gln,

a) Glutamine dissociates from the sensor domain in the NtrB protein, leading to activation of a histidine kinase transmitter domain in NtrB

b) glutamine binds to a sensor domain of NtrB, causing a conformational change in the protein that inhibits its histidine kinase activity, the regulatory domain of NtrC blocks its DNA-binding domain from binding the glnA enhancers.

c) Activated transmitter domain of NtrB that transfers the γ-phosphate of ATP to a histidine residue (H), this phosphohistidine then transfers the phosphate to an aspartic acid residue (D) in the NtrC protein

d) This causes a conformational change in NtrC that unmasks the NtrC DNA-binding domain so that it can bind to the glnA enhancers
