The bacteria is able to grow on the medium containing the arginine, methionine and antibiotic-streptomycin. But lacks the isoleucine. The bacteria must be able to synthesize the isoleucine in order to grow on the medium. The genotype of the bacteria can be arg- met- tet- ile+ .

2. You have performed the following mating experiment using Hfr and F"strains of Escherichia coli:(4 marks) Hfr (asp+ trp+ mal+ StrepS) x F (asp-trp-mal- Strep). Strep = streptomycin, an antibiotic Asp = aspartic acid, an amino acid Trp = tryptophan, an amino acid Mal = maltose, a sugar molecule, can be used by some organisms as an energy source rather than glucose (a) What selective media would you use to score recombinant colonies that have received all of the markers...

1. The type of genetic exchange between bacterial cells that can happen between isolated DNA and a live bacterial cell is: a. conjugation b. transduction c. transversion d. transformation 2. An Hfr strain of E. coli with genotype a+b+c+d+e+f+ is mated with an F¯ auxotrophic strain with the genotype a¯b¯c¯d¯e¯f¯. Conjugation is stopped at 10 minute intervals and the genotypes of the resulting conjugants are determined. The following results are obtained: after 10 minutes e+ after 20 minutes a+ e+...

An Hfr strain is used to map four genes in an interrupted mating experiment. The cross is Hfr/a+b+c+ rifs ×F−a−b−c− rifr . (No map order is implied in the listing of the alleles; rifr is resistance to the antibiotic rifampicin.) The a+gene is required for the biosynthesis of nutrient A, the b+ gene for nutrient B, c+ for nutrient C. The cross is initiated at time = 0, and at various times, the mating mixture is plated on medium. Each plate contains minimal medium (MM) plus rifampicin....

QUESTION 1 Imagine you are preparing an industrial enzyme assay. The protocol says to add 20 mL of 100 mM NaCl to your assay, and the final volume of the assay is 100 ml. What is the working concentration of NaCl? The number of significant digits you include in your answer doesn't matter, but it must be in units of mM. QUESTION 2 Imagine you are preparing an enzyme assay that requires a working concentration of 10 mM NaCl. If...

Title: Development of an Adhesion Assay and Characterization of an Adhesion-Deficient Mutant of Pseudomonas fluorescens RESULTS Bacterial adhesion to sand columns. In the initial column assays with soil-and-sand mixtures, P. fluorescens PfO-1 and E. coli SLH25 had the highest and lowest adhesion values, respectively. Therefore, the sand column assay was optimized to yield the greatest difference in percent adhesion for these two strains. PfO-1 bacteria grown in minimal medium to the logarithmic phase were washed and suspended in either minimal...
