True/false? if false, justify briefly The bacterial nucleoid comprises linear nucleic acid molecules associated with proteins that ensure the compaction of nucleic acids.
Fill the gap Molecular programming, also known as ........ exploits the information-processing capabilities of nucleic acids to design ....... at the nanoscale.
Central Dogma of Molecular Biology from DNA to RNA to Protein, discussing the principles underlying the transfer of information in a biologic system and its regulation. However, recent research seems to challenge certain aspects of Crick’s Central Dogma. Does the Central Dogma still stand today? If not, can you find an example for a type of information transfer that is not explicitly covered by the Central Dogma (or even violates it)?
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion lets say, you treat a bacteria with an unknown antibiotic. After three short days, the bacteria becomes resistant to the antibiotic. Mind you, after three days you measure the S12 protein mutations and they highly increased those three days. what is most likey the antibiotic identity and why?
PLEASE ANSWER WHY? Some substitution mutation result in a malfunctioning protein but others do not. Why is this?
Please explain it simply, and don't over-explain. Thanks! A. How is DNA structure arranged to allow it to do its function?
RNA polymerase from E. coli (core enzyme alone) has all of the following properties except: a)requires all four ribonucleoside triphosphates and a DNA template. b)can extend an RNA chain and initiate a new chain. c)recognizes specific start signals in DNA. d)produces an RNA polymer that begins with a 5'-triphosphate. e)is required for the synthesis of mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA in E. coli.
Which would be worse for an organism? Briefly explain your answer. B. The spliceosome can no longer form OR a particular gene has a mutation that removes the endonuclease site used in the addition of the polyA tail
a. Draw roughly the comparative electrophoretic mobilities of close circular DNA, open circular DNA and super coiled DNA, all having the same molecular weight. Why is the separation possible given that all the DNAs (in (a)) have the same molecular weight?
Which statements are true? Explain why or why not.1 Because the DNA double helix is only 2 nm wide—well below the limit of resolution of the light microscope—it is impossible to see chromosomes in living cells withoutspecial stains.2 A fluorescent molecule, having absorbed a singlephoton of light at one wavelength, always emits it at a longer wavelength.
Please explain it simply, and don't over-explain. Thanks! A. How can DNA be used to pass on inheritable material & make proteins?
Genetically Modified Foods The creation of transgenic crop plants using recombinant DNA methods involves the transfer of just one gene or a small number of genes to the plants, in contrast to classical breeding methods in which hundreds or even thousands of genes are transferred at once. Explain why this is true. If fewer genes are transferred during the creation of transgenic crops, why are some people afraid that they are dangerous?
