Question

Notes 1. What are the key features of a plasmid. How will you exploit those features to make a recombinant protein? 2. You want to express a protein that makes cheese with jalapeño flavor. How will you do it? 3. How do bacteria acquire Antibiotic resistance? 4. How will you treat a bacterial disease using bacteriophages? 5. How does blue/white screening work? How will you exploit this to clone genes of interest? 6. How do antibiotics and antibiotic resistance influence the bacterial growth curve and how will you make sure that the antibiotics that you take don't lead to resistance? 7. What are the differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes and how will you exploit this to develop specific antibacterial products? 8. What is the difference between bacteriocidal and bacteriostatic and when would you use them? 9. How will you exploit prokaryotes to allow you to survive in extreme conditions? 10. Structure/function correlations of bacterial determinants (cells walls, proteins, plasma membrane, etc.) 11. You are on CNN talking about microbial sciences. What will you say in 5 lines?

Answer 1

Plasmids are iz Circuare DNA molecule i > Small iiiy can replicate independently ivy having antibiotic resistance gene We can insert the DNA ore gene of interest into a plasmid vectore called reecombinant plasmid . By the preocess of treans foremations it can I be introduced Linto a bacteria that can help in Copying these RNAs in lara numbers
