- When Chargaffwas performing his experiments, the tetranucleotide hypothesis, which stated that DNA was composed of GACT nucleotide repeats, was the most widely accepted view of DNA’s composition. How did Chargaff disprove this hypothesis?Multiple Replication Forks in E. coli II On the basis of Figure 28.2, draw a simple diagram illustrating replication of the circular E. coli chromosome (a) at an early stage, (b) when one-third completed, (c) when two-thirds completed, and (d) when almost finished, assuming the initiation of replication at oriC has occurred only once. Then, draw a diagram showing the E. coli chromosome in problem 3 where the E. coli cell is dividing every 20 minutes.Human Genome Replication Rate Assume DNA replication proceeds at a rate of 100 base pairs per second in human cells and origins of replication occur every 300 kbp. Assume also that human DNA polymerases are highly processive and only two molecules of DNA polymerase arc needed per replication fork. How long would it take to replicate the entire diploid human genome? How many molecules of DNA polymerase does each cell need to carry out this task?
- Multiple Replication Forks in E. coli I Assuming DNA replication proceeds at a rate of 750 base pairs per second, calculate how long it will take to replicate the entire E. coli genome. Under optimal conditions, E. coli cells divide every 20 minutes. What is the minimal number of replication forks per E. coli chromosome in order to sustain such a rate of cell division?Semiconservative or Conservative DNA Replication If 15N-Iabeled E. coli DNA has a density of 1.724 g/mL, 14N-labeled DNA has a density of 1.710 g/mL, and E. coli cells grown for many generations on 14NH4+as a nitrogen source are transferred to media containing 15NH4+as the sole N-source, (a) What will be the density of the DNA after one generation, assuming replication is semiconservative? (b) Suppose replication took place by a conservative mechanism in which the parental strands remained together and the two progeny strands were paired. Design an experiment that could distinguish between semiconservative and conservative modes of replication.4a in context to taking genomic DNA from eukaryotic cells and randomly shearing it into pieces of a constant size, why do some of the genomic DNA fragments re-nature so much more quickly than other fragments
- 1d) Whether done manually or automated, DNA sequencing gels are always made of polyacrylamide rather than agarose. Why can't agarose be used for a sequencing gel, as it is for other DNA gel electrophoresis?3. Replicate the following segment of DNA. 5'-ATCGGCTACGTTCAC-3' 3'- TAGCCGATGCAAGTG-5'; and show the direction of the new strands and explain lagging and leading strands are, also explain how this is semiconservative replicatication. Are the new strands identical to the original segments of DNA?Q.)The Bacteria Escherichia coli DNA genome has a molecular mass of about 3.1 X 109 In your answers, show how you came up to each result?

Assume that they are all different sizes.Need help 1) Say you have an organism with a genome of 1 thousand bases (103) and a forward primer made up of 5 nucleotides (aka, a 5-mer) a)How many possible 5-mers are there? Remember that each position in the 5-mer has one of four nucleotides. b) Pick a 5-nucleotide position at random in the genome: what’s the probability that your forward primer matches there? Focus for now just on one strand of DNA. c) Pick a random 5-nucleotide position in the genome: what’s the probability that your forward primer does NOT match there? Focus for now just on one strand of DNA. d) How many physical locations might your forward primer sit in the genome? Focus just on one strand of DNA. Ignore whether or not it matches at a given location. this is one question with different parts. I would really appreciate it if all parts are answered. and I will defiantly rate.2c) If the whole potoroo genome is 4.2 x 10' bp, and the highlyrepetitive DNA in the potoroo genome is composed entirely ofcopies of the sequence 5'AAGACT' and its complement, howmany copies of this sequence are present in the potoroogenome?
