Wild‑type E. coli cells can synthesize all 20 common amino acids, but some mutants, called amino acid auxotrophs, are unable to

synthesize a specific amino acid and require its addition to the culture medium for optimal growth. Besides their role in protein synthesis, some amino acids are precursors for other nitrogenous cell products, such as the purine and pyrimidine nucleotides. Consider the three amino acid auxotrophs that are unable to synthesize glycine, glutamine, and aspartate, respectively. For each mutant, identify the nucleotide product or products which the cell would fail to synthesize by placing the nucleotide in the bin next to the auxotroph.

Answer:

Complete questions include: Answer Bank: Guanine nucleotides, uridine nucleotides, adenine nucleotides, cytosine nucleotides.

Explanation:

Glycine Auxotroph: Guanine nucleotides and adenine nucleotides (Purine nucleotides)

Glutamine auxotroph: Guanine nucleotides and adenine nucleotides (purine nucleotides)

Aspartate auxotroph: Guanine nucleotides, uridine nucleotides, adenine nucleotides, cytosine nucleotides Both purine and pyrimidine nucleotides)

The amino acids glutamine, glycine, and aspartate provide all the nitrogen atoms of purines in a two ring-closure steps to form the purine nucleus. Pyrimidines are synthesized from carbamoyl phosphate and aspartate.

Process by which living things produce more organisms like themselves
maxonik [38]
The process by which living things produce more organisms like themselves is the reproduction. There are two types of reproduction namely; asexual reproduction where only one parent is involved, and sexual reproduction that needs two parents, such that the cells of the two parents (egg and sperm) join, resulting to a unique offspring since they have characteristics from each parent are passed down/combined.

From which molecules are mRNA molecules transcribed?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

An RNA molecule transcribed from DNA is called messenger RNA, or mRNA for short. The mRNA now moves away from the DNA and leaves the cell's nucleus. Outside the nucleus, ribosomes attach themselves to the RNA.
