- What is bacteriophage ?arrow_forwardYou have been tasked with designing a new computer algorithm to identify protein-coding genes in bacterial genomes.a) Name 3 specific criteria/patterns you will use to define whether a given sequence could contain a full-length protein-coding gene, and briefly justify your choices.b) Do you think your algorithm will work well to detect proteins encoded by the archaean Sulfolobus acidocaldarius? Why or why not?c) Do you think your algorithm will work well to detect proteins encoded in the eukaryotic yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae? Why or why not?arrow_forwardIn studying Lokiarchaeota, researchers identified eukaryotic signature genes and used this information to better understand the relationship between archaeans and eukaryotes. Many other types of genetic analysis can be used that focus on certain types of genes. One example of this is multilocus sequence typing (MLST), which focuses on examining genes called housekeeping genes. Microbes encode both housekeeping and pathogenic genes in their genome. Drag the examples of genes to the correct bins to indicate whether they are housekeeping genes, pathogenic genes, or eukaryotic signature genes. Place the phrase describing a gene product in the correct bin. ► View Available Hint(s) peptidoglycan synthesis genes Housekeeping genes membrane remodeling genes cytoskeletal genes membrane lipid genes Pathogenic genes endotoxin genes Reset ribosomal genes exotoxin genes Eukaryotic signature genes Helparrow_forward
