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.

Why are viruses considered nonliving but bacteria are considered living? Give to reasons.
Andreyy89
Viruses aren't made up of living cells, like plants and animals are, they either consist of DNA or RNA surrounded by coating of protein. Versus also like the properties of living things. They have no energy, they do not produce waste, and they do not respond to stimuli. they do not reproduce independently but must rely on invading living cells and feeding off a them.

Therefore, there are many reasons my viruses are considered non living but the biggest reason is because they cannot survive on their on and have to feed and get their nutrients off of living things

And bacteria is considered living because it can do all these things that viruses cannot do.
