Text SolutionText solutionverified iconVerified

Interphase involves a series of changes that prepare a cell for division. It is the period during which the cell experiences growth and DNA replication in an orderly manner. Interphase is divided into three phases :
(i) G phase
(ii) S phase
(iii) G phase
G phase – It is the stage during which the cell grows and prepares its DNA for replication. In this phase, the cell is metabolically active.
S phase – It is the stage during which DNA synthesis occurs. In this phase, the amount of DNA (per cell) doubles, but the chromosome number remains the same.
G phase – In this phase, the cell continues to grow and prepares itself for the division. The proteins and RNA required for mitosis are synthesised during this stage.

Gout is a disease characterized by hyperuricemia from an overproduction of purine nucleotides via the de novo pathway. The specific cause of Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is a severe deficiency of HGPRTase. Allopurinol is used in the treatment of gout to reduce the production of uric acid. In Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, the decrease in uric acid is balanced by an increase in xanthine plus hypoxanthine in blood. In the other forms of gout, the decrease in uric acid is greater than the increase in xanthine plus hypoxanthine.The explanation for this difference in the two forms of gout isA. it is an experimental artifact and the decrease in uric acid and increase in xanthine plus hypoxanthine in non-Lesch-Nyhan gout is the same.B. allopurinol is less effective in non-Lesch-Nyhan gout.C. there is an increased excretion of xanthine and hypoxanthine in non-Lesch-Nyhan gout.D. PRPP levels are reduced in Lesch-Nyhan.E. in non-Lesch-Nyhan gout hypoxanthine and xanthine are salvaged to IMP and XMP and inhibit PRPP amidotransferase.
