You are trying to program E. coli bacteria to generate N-acylethanolamide, lipids that have been found to help suppress appetite

. In order to do this, you need to transfer the gene for the enzyme N-acyltransferase from the plant Arabidopsis Thaliana into the E.coli bacteria.
The transgene, which codes for ***********, will also need to have a**********
for RNA polymerase and a ********** that would fluoresce to let you know the insertion was successful. You would also need a********** , a small circular piece of bacterial DNA.
Then you would hunt for a *********** that would cut the plasmid once and also cut the transgene out from its host.

Answer:

The transgene, which codes for N-acylethanolamide, will also need to have a transcription initiation site for RNA polymerase and a selectable marker (reporter gene) that would fluoresce to let you know the insertion was successful. You would also need a plasmid, a small circular piece of bacterial DNA. Then you would hunt for restriction enzymes that would cut the plasmid once and also cut the transgene out from its host.

Explanation:

A transgene can be defiend as a gene (in this case, the N-acylethanolamide gene) which has been transferred by using genetic engineering techniques from one organism to another. The RNA polymerase is an enzyme required to copy a DNA sequence (e.g., a gene) into an RNA sequence, during transcription. RNA polymerases bind to specific DNA sequences called transcription initiation sites on the DNA template, and this binding triggers the initiation of the transcription. A plasmid is a small circular DNA molecule separated from chromosomal DNA which is capable of replicating independently of the chromosomal DNA. Plasmids are widely used in genetic engineering to clone/transfer/manipulate transgenes. During transgenesis, the plasmid is cut with a specific restriction enzyme in order to ligate the transgene of interest into the plasmid. Finally, the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene is a selectable marker (i.e., a reporter gene) that indicates which cells were successfully modified because its expression can be detected without any substrates.

Difference between mycoplasma and l form bacteria​
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

L-form bacteria are distinct from mycoplasmas, because Mycoplasma spp. do not originate from bacteria that normally possess a cell wall. ... Some of these bacteria remain as CWDB (stable L-forms), whereas others revert back to possession of a cell wall (unstable L-forms).

What might be the result if you shuffle the order of bases in an organism's DNA<br> molecules?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

It would have disastrous consequences on the viability of the individual

Explanation:

The genome can be defined as the genetic material of an organism, which is composed of DNA molecules named chromosomes whose building blocks are four different nucleotides: Adenine, Thymine, Cysotcine and Guanine. The order of these nucleotides specifies the information contained in the chromosomes and, ultimately, in the genome. The genes, which are recognized to be the basic units of inheritance, are genetic sequences composed of ordered nucleotides along the chromosomes. During transcription, a gene encodes different RNA codons (for example, start and stop codons) which are specified by the order of the nucleotide sequence. Finally, the order of the RNA codons will be critical to specify the polypeptide chain during the translation from RNA to protein.

Describe how The Carbon Cycle works.
shutvik [7]

Carbon cycle refers to an array of procedures by which the compounds of carbon are interconverted in the environment, comprising the inclusion of carbon dioxide into living tissue by the process of photosynthesis and then getting back into the atmosphere via respiration, the burning of fossil fuels, and the decomposition of dead organisms.  

The following are the steps that illustrate how the carbon cycle functions:  

1. Carbon enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide from combustion and respiration.  

2. The absorption of carbon dioxide takes place by the producers to manufacture glucose in photosynthesis.  

3. The animals feed on the plant passing the carbon components through the food chain. The majority of the consumed carbon is exhaled in the form of CO2, which was produced at the time of aerobic respiration. The plants and animals die eventually.  

4. The dead plants and animals get dissociated by the dead organisms and return the carbon present in their bodies back to the atmosphere as CO2 by the process of respiration. In certain occasions, the dead plant and animals get converted into fossil fuel, which is available in future for combustion.
