In the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum, cAMP acts as an extracellular signalling molecule and binds to and signals via a G protein–coupled receptor; it is not a second messenger. Amoeba cells were transfected with genes encoding two fusion proteins: a Gα fused to cyan fluorescent protein (CFP), and a Gβ fused to yellow fluorescent protein (YFP). CFP normally fluoresces 490-nm light; YFP, 527-nm light. In which conditions fluorescence
energy transfer occur from CFP to YFP?

#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling
  1. If ligand binding occur it leads to association of the Gα and Gβγ subunits, then fluorescence energy transfer can occur.
  2. If ligand binding occur it leads to dissociation of the Gα and Gβγ subunits, then fluorescence energy transfer can occur.
  3. If ligand binding doesn’t occur (In resting state) it leads to dissociation of the Gα and Gβγ subunits, then fluorescence energy transfer can occur.
  4. If ligand binding doesn’t occur (In resting state) it leads to association of the Gα and Gβγ subunits, then fluorescence energy transfer can occur.

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

Numerous pure breeding crosses are made between two inbred plant strains, one having a mean height at maturity of 96 cm and the other as 56 cm. The height of the F1 progeny at maturity averages close to 76 cm. Height of plant control by four pair of polygene. The F2 progeny show the following phenotype.

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

Two varieties of maize averaging 25 and 125 inches in height, respectively, are crossed. The F1 progeny is quite uniform averaging 75 inches in height. Of the 500 F2 plants, the Shortest 2 is 25 inches and the tallest 2 are 125 inches. What will be number phenotype observe in F2 progeny and number of polygene contribute for that character respectively?
