Question

One type of cancer is caused by a dominant mutation that causes the protein Raf kinase to always be active Part 1 How would you classify the normal non mutant version of the Raf kinase gene O Tumor suppressor O Proto oncogene O Oncogene O Tumor suppressor proto oncogene or oncogene Part 2 Sort each scenario based on whether it is more likely to be cancer causing or non cancer causing Methylation of the Raf kinase promoter A mutation in an intron of the Raf kinase gene that results in retention of the intron upon transcriptional splicing A duplication of a gene that encodes a repressor protein which acts on the Raf kinase promoter A mutation in a regulatory region of the Raf kinase gene that allows a transcriptional activator to bind more frequently Deletion of one of the two copies of the Raf kinase gene Translocation of the Raf kinase gene to another chromosome that puts it under control of a promoter for a gene with high expression levels Acetylation of histones in the region of DNA containing the Raf kinase gene Cancer causing Non cancer causing
