Find the palindrome in this restriction enzyme site: 5'-CTGCAG-3'?
A patient with impaired judgment, personality changes, signs of abnormal body
movements and depression comes to the physician's office for a follow-up visit. The
physician suspects a single-gene disorder may be the cause of those clinical
manifestations. A blood specimen was then sent to your clinical laboratory for mutation
screening in the Huntington gene. Testing with standard PCR indicates that patient has
Huntington Disease, HD. Which of the following would be consistent with this
diagnosis?
25 CAG repeats in the Huntington gene
85 CAG repeats in the Huntington gene
25 CGA repeats in the Huntington gene
85 CGA repeats in the Huntington gene - correct answer. 85 CAG repeats in the
Huntington gene
