Different mutations in the wdr62 gene that inactivate gene function were found in the exomes in many different people with microcephaly. tins information provided strong support for the idea that the wdr62gene mutation causes microcephaly. a. the human genome sequence identified wdr62as one of the approximately 25,000 genes in the human genome. what information about the function of wdr62 do you think was learned originally from the dna sequence of the normal human genome? b. what additional information was provided by identification of wdr62 as the microcephaly disease gene? c. ue mouse genome contains a gene similar to human wdr62. experiments in mice have shown that the mouse wdr62 gene is expressed in the brain. technology is now available that allows scientists to generate mice in which the two normal copies of the wdr62gene are replaced with mutant copies of the gene that are nonfunctional. why would a scientist want to generate such wdr62 mutant mice?
