What would be the most likely effect on the transcription of the trp structural genes for...
You are studying a mutant strain of bacteria in which the trp operon includes a mutation in region 1 of the 5'UTR. Whereas in the wildtype strain the affected codons code for "trp, in the mutant strain these codons code for "stop". How will this mutation affect attenuation? Translation of the S'UTR will stop at the position of the mutation in region 1. As a result, region 3 of the 5'UTR will pair with region 2 in the mRNA causing...

There are several possible mutations in the trp operon: trpP -is a mutation in the promoter sequence that prevents RNA polymerase from binding to the promoter and initiate transcription of the trp operon genes. trpOcis a mutation in the operator sequence that prevents the trp repressor protein from binding to the operator to block transcription of the trp operon genes. trpR-is a mutation in the repressor protein that either prevents repressor protein from being made or produces a mutant repressor...
Why is an insertion or deletion more likely to result in a damaging mutation than a point mutation? 1.Point mutations only change two or three nucleotides 2.Point mutations never change the amino acid that is called for in the protein 3.Insertions/deletions change all codons that follow them, unless they are indels of 3, 6, 9, etc 4.Point mutations cannot result in a stop codon, whereas insertions and deletions can.
Which of the following occurs as a result of an abundance of tryptophan in E. coli? A.The leader sequence is not transcribed. B.The 5 trp genes (TrpA � TrpE) are not transcribed. C.Stalling of the ribosome at trp codons in the leader sequence D. The 5 trp genes (TrpA � TrpE) are transcribed, but not translated. Which of the following features of the trp operon is likely least essential to the process of attenuation? A.The order of the structural genes,...
1. (1 points) A deletion mutation in the leader sequence of the trp operon removes the two tryptophan codons that are involved in attenuation. Predict the effect of this mutation on the expression of the trp structural genes in E. coli cells grown in media that lacks tryptophan. 2. (2 points) What protein family members are the main protein components of the RISC complex? How does the RISC complex target specific mRNAs for silencing? 3. (3 points) In bacteria, the...
1. Tryptophan (Trp) is encoded by the codon UGG. Suppose that a cell was treated with high levels of 5-Bromouracil such that mutations were induced at Trp codons. Would you expect that these mutations would results in a non-sense mutation, a silent mutation, a missense mutation. Explain your answer.What is a tautomeric shift and explain how it contributes to transition mutations? 2.Draw the structure of the rare tautomeric enol form of guanine. Draw the structure of the monophosphate deoxynucleotide which...
3. Consider a hypothetical strain of E. coli (strain 401) that contains two mutations that affect tryptophan biosynthesis. The first mutation is a single nucleotide substitution that converts the second tandem Trp codon in region 1 of the Trp leader sequence into a stop codon (see slides 2-7 of Lecture 24 on iLearn) trp structural genes trpE trpD trpC trpB trpA PO Trp Leader Met-Lys-Ala-lle-Phe-Val-Leu-Lys-Gly-Trp-Trp-Arg-Thr Ser- Stop Assume that strain 401 also contains a mutation in the gene for the...

Shown below is the trp mRNA leader. (A) How does attenuation in the trp operon work to control the levels of Trpe peptide? What happens when tryptophan levels are high in the cell? When they are low?
