1. a)Give two characteristics of recombinant proteins cloned into the pRSET-FP plasmid.
b) pRSET is called an “expression vector”. Explain the function of the following in the context of producing the recombinant fluorescent protein.
T7 promoter:
RBS:
ATG:
6xHis:
c) What does “in frame” refers to?
Q1)
A)
B)
An expression vector is a plasmid that can be used to drive the 'expression' or synthesis of the insert protein in the target host cell.
C)
'In frame' refers to the sequence 'read' by the ribosome to synthesize any protein. There are 4 letters in the Nucleic Acid alphabet, ATGC in DNA and AUGC in RNA. In order to encode for the more numerous standard Amino Acids, groups of 3 Nucleic Acid bases are used by the Ribosome to determine which Amino Acid to add to the growing polypeptide chain. This grouping is known as a Codon.
When the Ribosome recognizes the first codon (ATG), all downstream sequence is read by the Ribosome in subsequent groups of 3 Nucleic Acid bases. Theoretically, for any given DNA sequence, six different 'reading frames' are possible, three in the forward direction and 3 in the reverse. However, all codons, aligned with the initial ATG are used by the Ribosome for determining the protein sequence and these codons are called 'in frame'.
For example in the sequence ATGGGCTACTGGGCAACT; the codons are ATG, GGC, TAC, TGG, GCA and ACT and the sequence following the G in ATG is called in-frame.

1-Give two characteristics of recombinant proteins cloned into the pRSET-FP plasmid. 2-Briefly explain what the Ori locus is and its purpose? 3-What is the selective media? What is it selecting for (briefly explain)?
Based on the following picture: 1- Write the DNA sequence of the recombinant pET/GFP plasmid beginning at the ATG translational start codon and continuing through the first 4 codons (triplets) of the GFP coding region. Put a box around the NheI site.1- 2- Also, based on the DNA sequence you have written out above, write the amino acid sequence of the protein that is encoded by this DNA. Box the His-tag. Underline the region that corresponds to the GFP protein...

Genetics Worksheet Week 3: Gene Regulation and Epigenetics 1. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is caused by a mutation in a gene that is 2.5 million nucleotides in length and encodes a protein called dystrophin. The dystrophin protein itself is 3684 amino acids in length. Calculate below the approximate size of the mRNA that encodes dystrophin. Approximately what percentage of the gene that encodes dystrophin is intron sequence? The human genome encodes a much greater variety and number of proteins than the...
A genetically engineered plasmid Ficarries all of the elements of the lac operon, but replaces the structural genes with the reporter gene green fluorescent protein (GFP). The repressor allele cannot bind lactose, and the OC allele cannot be bound by the repressor. Given the following genotypes and growth media that does not contain glucose, indicate in the table below whether you expect to see b-galactosidase activity and glowing green colonies of E. coli by selecting Yes or No. growth media...

Hagrid has purified a protein from unicom sweat and called UNI-1. He has then doned the Unit gone and inserted in rat zygotes (by microinjection) a recombinant construct containing the Uni-1 coding sequence its entire 5 UTR region, covering both the minimal promoter and a series of cutative regulatory als elements. The mutantrats develop glorious, luminous hair. Hagrid has also discovered that the UNI-1 protein binds very tightly to DNA and hypothesizes it is a transcription factor that regulates proliferation...
1.In early March, it was reported that two main strains of SARS-CoV-2 had been identified, termed S and L, with the S type being the less virulent ancestral form representing about 30% of prevalence and the more virulent L type having descended from the S type and representing about 70% of prevalence. However, the prevalence of the more virulent L type seems to have decreased after early January, and it is thought that this resulted from human intervention against this...
