    1, (12 pts.) You are fortunate to obtain a strain of E. coli from the Pasteur Institute labeled #348, preserved from the work of Jacob & Monod. The genotype of the strain is Lac LacP Laco' Lacz' LacY. The Lacf mutation results in resistance to allolactose allosteric inhibition so it is always bound to the LacO operator. The LacY is a mutation resulting in zero permease activity. Lucky for you, today's echnology allows you to test this bacterial strain to...

    25. You take your lac/ strain and transform in two F' plasmids to conduct a complementation test. The first F' plasmid contains the entire lac operon from a strain that is lacz, while the second F' plasmid contains the entire lac operon from a strain that is lacY. You test the ability of the transformed bacteria to grow on media where the sole carbon source is either glucose or lactose, and obtain the following results: Lac t mutant compl lacZ...

    4. Monod's group figured out how the different parts of lac operon work by constructing "meroploidl E. coli cells. These have two copies of each of the lac operon genes, one in their chromosome and one on a plasmid* (actually a separate chromosome fragment introduced via conjugation), so they are "partial diploids." Many different versions of these were constructed, with different combinations of mutations in the chromosomal and/or plasmid- encoded genes. +/- indicate active/inactive gene products. O® = "constitutively active...
