The proteome is defined as
a. the set of proteins encoded and expressed by the genome.
b. the set of proteins encoded by an individual's genotype.
c. the rate of gene expression.
d. a species' profile of mitochondrial DNA.
Question 2
Huntington's disease, a fatal degenerative movement disorder, results from large numbers of codon repeats in the Huntington gene located on chromosome 4 . This means that the
a. extra codon repeats will not impact the individual's phenotype.
b. affected Huntington gene will be silenced, producing no protein.
c. affected Huntington gene will produce a protein with abnormally large amounts of the amino acid encoded by the extra codons.
d. affected Huntington gene will produce a protein with abnormally small amounts of the amino acid encoded by the extra codons.
