Based on the data presented in the passage, which statement best describes the HSP110ΔE9 allele?
A.Cancer-promoting and dominant to HSP110WT
B.Cancer-promoting and recessive to HSP110WT
C.Cancer-suppressing and dominant to HSP110WT
D.Cancer-suppressing and recessive to HSP110WT

Answer:

C.Cancer-suppressing and dominant to HSP110WT

Explanation:

This is a case study on how genetic information are transmitted from gene to protein

Its seen from figure 1 that HSP110ΔE9 reduces growth of tumor (cancer-suppressing) unlike the HSP110WT

HSP110ΔE9 restrains HSP110WT ability to stop aggregation and reduces apoptosis since its the dominant allele and HSP110WT is the recessive allele. This info can be reduced from table 2
