Glucagon cDNA
Go to the NCBI database and find the cDNA for human glucagon. Access code
NM_002054. (Keep the page open as there will be several questions).

How many nucleotides are described in this deposited sequence?
1. 1293
2. 1294
3. 1295
4. 2054
Reference
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NM_002054
2. glucagon introns
(Points: 10)
How many introns are reported for human glucagon?
(access cod NM_002054.4)
1. none
2. one
3. five
4. six

3. Glucagon exon 1
(Points: 10)
How many amino acids are coded by exon 1 ?
1. none
2. 3
3. 12
4. 24
Reference

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NM_002054
4. glucagon homology
(Points: 10)
In which animal is the glucagon sequence 84% similar to human
1. Dog
2. Guinea Pig
3. Chimpanzee
4. Degu
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NM_002054

Explanation
It was measured by application of BLAST N tool.
In case of chimpanzee, homology was 100% (plz see the highlighted portion in this snap
shot):
In case of dog, it was 93% :
In case of guinea pig, it was 92% :
Whereas; in case of Degu, it was 89% which was closest one so selected as answer.
5. Size of intron 1
(Points: 10)
What is the size (in nucleotides) of the first intron. Hint: you will not get the answer from
this page but you may be able to find it in NC_000002.11
1. 247
2. 3298
3. 2971 (Approximately and...
