Homework Answers
The % of Transformation Efficiency = Practical yield / Theorical yield * 100.
The practical yield = 10^6/ ug and
the theoritical yield = 10^8/ ug.
So, The TE = 10^6/10^8 * 100 = 1.
so, the answer is 1.

You add (1.04x10^0) ng of plasmid DNA in 50 µL to 100 µL of competent E. coli cells and incubate the mixture on ice for 20 min. Following a heat-shock treatment, the cells are incubated at 37 C for 30 min. At the end of the incubation you spread (1.2000x10^2) µL of the transformation mix on an agar plate and incubate the plate overnight at 37 C. The next morning you observe (6.8400x10^2) colonies on the plate, each colony having...

Bacterial cells, such as E. coli, are surrounded by a fluid plasma membrane and enclosed by a rigid cell wall that protects the cell from damage. You will recall that there is no nuclear envelope in prokaryotic cells, but rather a “nucleoid region” with a single chromosome that is continuous (circular), not linear, as in eukaryotes. All of the genes required for basic survival and reproduction are found in the main chromosome. In addition to the main chromosomes, some DNA...

II. Transformation of E. coli with Plasmid DNA (PGLO) 1. Three LB (Luria Broth) agar plates are obtained. The plates contain: • Plate A: LB-Agar/Ampicillin/Arabinose • Plate B: LB-Agar/Ampicillin • Plate C: LB-Agar 2. Three...

The starting concentration of the plasmid DNA is 100 ngul and you added 2μ1 to your cells. The cells were diluted to one ml prior to plating. First, determine how many transformants you would have if you plated the entire 1 ml of cell:s. Remember, you only plated half or your transformation reaction on plates 1 and 2. Add the number of transformants on plates 1 and 2, and then multiply by 2 for the total number transformants. Record that...

Suppose that you carried out a Bacterial transformation of E. coli HA101 with pGLO plasmid experiment in the lab. During the experiment plates with bacteria were inoculated from +GLO and -GLO microfuge tubes (LB (-) plate, LB/amp (-) plate, LB/amp (+) plate, and LB/amp/ara (+) plate). 14) Explain what kinds of bacterial growth you will find on each of 4 plates after incubation ((LB (-) plate, LB/amp (-) plate, LB/amp (+) plate, and LB/amp/ara (+) plate): under normal light and...

You have a strain of E. coli which is ade- (adenine minus, meaning unable to make adenine on its own). In the biosynthesis of adenine, there are five steps as follows: In the biosynthetic pathway shown above, the ‘precursor’ is the starting material. Enzyme 1 converts this precursor to compound 1 (intermediate 1), enzyme 2 then acts on compound 1 to give rise to compound 2 (intermediate 2), so on and so forth, until enzyme 5 gives rise to the...

As a student project, you have isolated six new mutant strains
of E. coli with altered behavior of the lactose operon. The strains
are listed in the table below, together with their phenotypes (with
regard to significant ?-galactosidase synthesis) in three specific
situations.
Columns 1 and 2 present the phenotypes of each mutant haploid
strain. In column 1, the mutant is in an otherwise wild-type
genome. In column 2, the genome also carries a nonsense-suppressor
mutation (that is not present...
