PRACTICE DOJO

Chemistry / Life Sciences

Examine chemistry, molecular and cellular science, genetics, ecology, environment, and agriculture through mechanisms, experiments, and quantitative reasoning. We study past-paper topics and formats across Japanese graduate schools, then independently write and substantially rework foundation, standard, and stretch practice with level-appropriate extensions.

Sample question

Passage
互いに交雑しない二つの架空の系統 X、Y について、相同な DNA の二つの区間を比較する。区間 I と II はともに 12 塩基長であり、全長に対する重みは等しい。R は分岐直前の祖先配列で、復元誤差はない。挿入・欠失、遺伝子流動および組換えはないものとする。表の各文字は同じ列の塩基と対応し、座位番号は区間ごとに左から数える。 現存する X と Y の不一致率を ppp、一座位当たりの推定置換数を KKK とする。設問(2)(3)では、各区間内で四塩基の平衡頻度と置換率が対称なモデルを用い、区間間では置換量が異なってもよい。補正式は以下のとおりである。計算には ln⁡2=0.6931\ln 2=0.6931ln2=0.6931、ln⁡3=1.0986\ln 3=1.0986ln3=1.0986 を用いてよい。
(1)区間 I の第3座位だけについて、分岐後の各枝で置換は高々1回と仮定する。X と Y が一致しているにもかかわらず、両枝での置換を見落とす原因となる事象はどれか。最も適切なものを一つ選べ。 表1 架空の整列済み DNA 配列配列区間 I(12 塩基)区間 II(12 塩基)RACGTTACGATGCTTGACCGATGCAXACATTACGATGCTTGACCGATGCAYACATTGCGTTGAATCATCAACGTAK=f(p)=−34ln⁡ ⁣(1−43p),0≤p<34K=f(p)=-\frac34\ln\!\left(1-\frac43p\right),\qquad 0\le p<\frac34K=f(p)=−43​ln(1−34​p),0≤p<43​
  1. Aア:祖先多型が置換なしで両系統に受け継がれたこと。
  2. Bイ:各枝で祖先状態へ戻る復帰置換が起きたこと。
  3. Cウ:同じ祖先状態から同じ派生状態への平行置換が独立に起きたこと。
  4. Dエ:祖先状態を保ったまま、同義コドンの使用頻度だけが変化したこと。
