In the sequence for the mouse, circle any amino acid that differs from the sequence for the chimpanzee, gorilla, and rhesus monkey. Then draw a box around any amino acid that differs from the human sequence.

검증된 단계별 안내

Obtain the amino acid sequences for the mouse, chimpanzee, gorilla, rhesus monkey, and human. Ensure you have the correct sequences for comparison.
Compare the mouse amino acid sequence to the sequences of the chimpanzee, gorilla, and rhesus monkey. Identify any amino acids in the mouse sequence that differ from these three species.
Circle each amino acid in the mouse sequence that differs from the chimpanzee, gorilla, and rhesus monkey sequences. This visual representation will help highlight the differences.
Next, compare the mouse amino acid sequence to the human sequence. Identify any amino acids in the mouse sequence that differ from the human sequence.
Draw a box around each amino acid in the mouse sequence that differs from the human sequence. This will help distinguish differences specific to humans from those of other primates.

Amino Acid Sequence Comparison

Amino acid sequence comparison involves analyzing the order of amino acids in protein sequences from different species to identify similarities and differences. This comparison helps in understanding evolutionary relationships and functional similarities or differences between proteins. In this context, it involves identifying specific amino acids that differ between the mouse and other primates like chimpanzees, gorillas, rhesus monkeys, and humans.

Evolutionary Biology

Evolutionary biology studies the processes that have led to the diversity of life on Earth, including the genetic changes that occur over generations. By comparing amino acid sequences across species, scientists can infer evolutionary relationships and trace lineage divergences. Differences in sequences can indicate evolutionary distances and adaptations specific to each species.

Protein Structure and Function

Proteins are composed of amino acids, and their sequence determines their structure and function. Even a single amino acid change can significantly impact a protein's function, potentially leading to different traits or adaptations. Understanding these differences is crucial for studying how proteins evolve and function differently across species, which is essential for fields like comparative genomics and molecular biology.

Below are the amino acid sequences (using single letters; see Figure 5.14) of three short segments of the FOXP2 protein from five species. These segments contain all amino acid differences between the FOXP2 proteins of these species. Compare the amino acid sequences by answering parts (a)–(d).

Chimpanzee: PKSSD ... TSSTT ... NARRD

Mouse: PKSSE ... TSSTT ... NARRD

Gorilla: PKSSD ... TSSTT ... NARRD

Human: PKSSD ... TSSNT ... SARRD

Rhesus monkey: PKSSD ... TSSTT ... NARRD

교과서 질문

Primates and rodents diverged about 65 million years ago, and chimpanzees and humans diverged about 6 million years ago (see Figure 21.17). How many amino acid differences are there between the sequence for the mouse and the sequence for the chimpanzee, gorilla, and rhesus monkey? How many amino acid differences are there between the human se-quence and the sequence for the chimpanzee, gorilla, and rhesus monkey? Based solely on the numbers of amino acid differences occurring over these time periods, what might you hypothesize about the rate of evolution of the FOXP2gene? Based on the information in the chapter regarding the FOXP2 gene, is your hypothesis correct?
