6. (3 pts) After transformation, 40 colonies were present on the plate. What is the transformation efficiency of the competent c
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Given:

Number of colonies on plate = 40

Amount of DNA used for transformation = 100ng

Volume of competent cells used = 100ul

Total volume = 1ml (1000ul)

Volume plated for growth = 200ul

The amount of cells transformed per 1 µg of DNA is called the transformation efficiency

(CFU is colony forming units) => (number of colonies on plate/ng of DNA plated) X 1000 ng/µg = CFU/µg of DNA

Amount of DNA used for plating = 100ng * (200/1000)

                                                      = 100ng * (1/5)

                                                      = 100/5 = 20ng

Efficiency calculation = 40 colonies / 20ng = 2 colonies/ng

               (2 colonies/ng) * (1000 ng/µg) = 2000 CFU/ug DNA

Transformation efficiency = 2000 Transformants / ug DNA

                                          = 2 x 10³ Transformants / ug DNA

Explanation:

Efficiency of transformation is highest in the 100 pg-1 ng range, so Low transformation efficiency could be because of high amount of DNA used for transformation.

Class ii mhc proteins are found on which of the following cell types?
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

The answer to the question: Class II MHC proteins are found on which of the following cell types, would be: on macrophages and lymphocytes, particularly T-Cells.

Explanation:

MHC, or Major histocompatibility complex, is a very important part of the immune response that the body gives against an invading pathogen, or other foreign substances. There are three types in the human body, Class I, Class II and Class III and each of them will play a role on the cellular membrance of different types of cells and mediate different types of responses. In the human body, this histocompatibility complex is best known as HLA, or human leukocyte antigen, and it will ensure the recognition, or non-recognition of substances, tissues, and other organisms, by the human immune system. Class II, as mentioned before, are most usually found on the immune cells macrophages and lymphocytes, and they are the ones responsible for presenting antigens to these proteinic antibodies so that the immune cells can initiate a proper immune response.

Which types of mutations in the lac operon stop Escherichia coli from utilizing lactose as a carbon source? a) promoter deletion
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

D.) repressor DNA-binding site mutation

Explanation:

lacl prevents the repressor polypeptide is a mutant that prevent operon from binding lactose, and thus will bind to the operator and be non-inducible.. This mutant will represses the lac operon whether lactose is present or not and the lac operon will not be expressed. It is also called“super-supperesor".

The lacI locus – One type of mutant allele of lacI (callled I-) prevents the production of a repressor polypeptide or produces a polypeptide that will not allow to bind to the operator sequence.

This is also a constitutive expresser of the lac operon because absence of repressor binding permits transcription.
