A microbiologist would like to use a noncompetent genus of streptococcal bacteria, Enterococcus faecalis, as a cloning host to e

xpress genes from Streptococcus pneumoniae, which is naturally competent. Is this possible? Group of answer choices
Biology
1 answer:
DENIUS [597]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Yes, with the assistance of electroporation the bacteria Enterococcus can be made competent, and afterward, the Streptococcus bacterial genes can be presented within the Enterococcus with the help of a cloning vector.  

The electropermeabilization or electroporation refers to a microbiology technique in which the permeability of the cell membrane is enhanced with the application of the electric field. This permits drugs, chemicals, or DNA to get presented within the cell.  

The procedure of electroporation is generally used in the field of microbiology to transform yeast, bacteria, or protoplasts of plants by presenting novel coding DNA.

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Yes,  P. Falciparum and T. Cruzi undergo similar antigenic variation because of repetitive genomes evolved by time.

Explanation:

Living (i.e., actively proliferating) repeats are dynamic elements which reshape their host genomes by generating rearrangements, creating and destroying genes, shuffling existing genes, and modulating patterns of expression. Dead repeats (i.e., those which are no longer able to proliferate) constitute a palaeontological record, which can be mined for clues about evolutionary events and impetus. The dynamic nature of repeats leads to a rapid evolutionary divergence that can be used in species identification and phylogenetic inference. Repeats can also provide passive markers for studying processes of mutation and selection.

The genomes of these protozoan parasites, like all eukaryotic genomes, have been colonized by diverse repetitive elements. Repetitive sequences can be artificially divided into two groups: interspersed repeats and tandemly repeated DNA. P. falciparum undergoes antigenic variation ans similar anitgenic variation is present in t. cruzi because of repetitive sequences resembling each other.

Tertiary structures of proteins can be very complex. Analyzing and recognizing common structural patterns is the first step in u
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

a. Always independently stable. Domain

b. Retains native structure even when separated from the rest of the protein. Domain

c. β Barrel. Motif

d. Calcium-binding segments of calmodulin. Motif

e. An advantageous folding pattern composed of two or more secondary structure elements. Domain

f. Sometimes independently stable. Motif

Explanation:  

a. Protein domains are evolutionary conserved and stable 3D structures formed by a series of amino acids joined by peptide bonds.

b. Domains are stable because they conserve their tridimensional structure in physiological conditions even if they are separated of the rest of the protein.

c. The ß-barrel motif is a type of motif localized in single-stranded DNA viruses.

d. Calmodulin is a protein that contains calcium-binding motifs that enable to sense intracellular calcium levels.

e. Domain folding patterns are critical transitional states that allow the proteins their interaction with specific ligands in different physiological conditions.

f. Motifs are sometimes independently stable, but due to their short length (3-15 amino acids), protein motifs are generally unstable in different conditions.

What would the results of this experiment look like if the pigments that drive photosynthesis in the algae were to absorb most s
Debora [2.8K]
Attached is the experiment details. I found the exercise on the internet.

The pigments of the algae, according to the experiment, absorb the most strongly around the violet-blue and red parts of the spectrum and so photosynthesis is the most efficient when the algae are under such wave lengths. The results were that more oxygen-seeking bacteria gathered around the algae that were under such wave length because there were more production of oxygen.
If the pigments were now to absorb most strongly around the 500 nm to 560 nm, the bacteria would gather the most around the algae under such wavelegth (green light).
