The rate of cell growth is increasing,its takes about 20 hours to grow 10 ells ,but it only takes 2-3 hr to grow the last 20 cellsExtend your thinking: In living organisms, the cell cycle is closely regulated.
Answer:
D) increased illnesses that result in a decrease in population
Answer:
When an E.coli cell is infected by multiple phages,they will take either lytic or lysogenic pathway.
Explanation:
When lambda phage bacteriophage infects an E.coli,it can either undergo lytic cell growth and lyse the host cell or enter lysogenic pathway.
The operator region of lac operon in E.coli contain single repressor binding site whereas the lambda operators
and
each contains 3 repressor binding sites (
and
) that are differently occupied under different conditions.
The differential affinity of lambda repressor for the three binding sites in these operators play an important role in the maintenance of lysogenic state of lambda prophage in E.coli.
The lytic development occurs in cells infected with lambda phage that carry
gene.
In contrast,lysogeny will occur in bacteria that infected with lambda phage that harbor a deletion of Cro gene.
Answer:
Potential targets:
1- DNA methyltransferases
2- Chromatin modifiers such as histone acetyltransferases, histone deacetylases, histone methyltransferases, etc.
3- Components of the RNA interference (RNAi) machinery such as Dicer, Argonaute, etc.
Explanation:
Epigenetics can be defined as the study of any heritable change in the phenotype that does not involve modifications in the DNA sequence. Epigenetic mechanisms can be classified into three major types: 1-DNA methylation, 2-histone modifications (e.g., acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, etc), and 3-regulatory non-coding RNAs (e.g., miRNAs, lncRNAs, siRNAs, etc) that modulate target gene expression via the RNA interference pathway. There are different types of proteins that are involved in these complex epigenetic mechanisms, and those cited above represent only some examples that can be used as therapeutic targets.
