Question by pj: Lia Sophia?
Does anyone know the Lia Sophia jewlery specials for April?

Best answer:

Answer by Stained Glass
I just went to a Lia Sophia party and they were offering a buy two get the third (most expensive item) at 50% off. The sliders were also on special. I am pretty sure it was that if you buy two items then every additional slider you buy was 50% off.

u2…?????

Question by Pot8r Boi: u2…?????
just because U2 is from Ireland does that make them an Irish band? or are they an Irish band because they’re an Irish band?
like if they weren’t directly from ireland (e.g. say they moved there when they were 14/15 years old) would they still be an Irish band (if so would they still be JUST as Irish?)
WOW labken! take it easy man

Mosaic???????????

Question by carrierox2010: Mosaic???????????
We are making mosaics in art class and I am doing a sunflower and the color goes from a orangish to yellow… how do I show that in my mosaic?? Thanks!!

Best answer:

Answer by coolface
You can probably do with three or four colors of tile (if you’re doing a regular tile mosaic rather than a painted mosaic design, that is). Break down the flower to only a few main colors and get tiles of that color – you don’t need a very light yellow-orange, a slightler orangier one, an even darker one, etc. You can have the main yellow and the main orange, and then smaller pieces that are yellow-orange. When the color of the flower starts to transition from yellow to orange, start getting smaller with the pieces and mix in the yellow-orange pieces with the yellow and the orange and that should give you an optical gradient mixture that might be what you’re looking for.

What region of a prokaryotic gene is analogous to the enhancer region of a eukaryotic gene?

Question by ms. murder: What region of a prokaryotic gene is analogous to the enhancer region of a eukaryotic gene?
1. What region of a prokaryotic gene is analogous to the enhancer region of a eukaryotic gene?

2. Describe how the intron-exon pattern of a gene organization can serve as a source of genetic diversity.

Yes, I know these are homework questions, but I really need help. You don’t have to answer them; explaining it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Best answer:

Answer by gardengallivant
Prokaryotes have NtrC (nitrogen regulatory protein C) binding sites that act as enhancer-like DNA elements. The binding sites location at a distance from the promoter requires the prokaryote DNA to be looped or super coiled to bring them near the promoter so the NtrC protein can interact with RNA polymerase sigma 54 bound at the promoter site.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC556689/

http://genesdev.cshlp.org/content/12/6/894.long

Having exon sequences to be removed allows the option of alternative splicing so multiple proteins can be translated from one reading frame. These alternative proteins are regulated as to what cells they are expressed in and when in development. This regulated alternative protein expression is another inherited trait with allelic variations. The total range of allelic variation in a species is the base of its genetic diversity. A species with a large gene pool is more diverse than a species with a small gene pool. The gene pool is the number of alleles for each gene.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_splicing

Another aspect of exons is the idea some encode functional domains. If a functional domain is added to an existing gene a novel protein functional could result. The existence of isolated functional domains flanked by exon/intron splice sites facilitated this type of diversity at meiotic crossover. Crossover recombines homologous chromosomes and sometimes has additions. Crossover repairs the occasional addition/deletion to one chromosome by comparing to the partnered chromosome. This is how chromosomes rearrange over time.

Best answer:

Answer by Simon
Its pretty hard. Try Gamespot, as they sometimes have some. Other than that, try looking around in your phonebook for pawn shops and other game dealers.
