26. Why is green fluorescent protein (GFP) so useful in visualizing fusion proteins in eukaryotes?
(A) The reaction is only dependent on the presence of GFP and one other cofactor.
(B) It is easily cloned and expressed in eukaryotes.
(C) The presence of just a few molecules of GFP fusion proteins can be sufficient for observing the proteins microscopically allowing the study of its location and movements in the cell.
(D) It is derived from fire flies, which are easy to cultivate in the lab.
(E) The GFP protein recognizes and binds to fusion proteins allowing the location of the fusion protein to be determined.

複選題27. Which of the following is correct regarding yeast three-hybrid analysis? (A) A useful tool in analyzing RNA-protein interactions (B) It contain a fusion protein of LexA, which binds the reporter construct, and MS2 which specifically binds an RNA tag that has been added to every RNA produced by the plasmid library. (C) It needs a plasmid library that contains random sequences from the genome tagged with a unique hairpin sequence that MS2 will bind. (D) It requires a reporter construct that contains a LexA operator (binding site) and a reporter gene. (E) It needs a fusion protein of the protein of interest and two tags - the calmodulin binding site and protein A.

28. Which of the following is a function of telomeres? (A) Serve as an attachment site for the proteins of the kinetochore. (B) They are sequences at the ends of the linear eukaryotic chromosome that protect the ends from proteases. (C) They are sequences of the eukaryotic chromosome that ensure proper distribution during mitosis. (D) In most eukaryotes, telomeres are protected from shortening by a protein-RNA complex called telomere terminal transferase. (E) Drosophila species maintain telomere lengths by the regulated insertion of retrotransposons into telomeres.
