What do amino acids, fatty acids, and sugars (monosaccharides) have in common?

2 answers:

4 0

What amino acids, fatty acids, and sugars (monosaccharides) have in common is that they are made of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen which is option B.

Amino acids are the basic structural units of proteins. Each amino group (-NH₂) and a carboxyl group (-COOH) in its molecule. Thus, from the molecular structure of an amino acid, the carboxyl group of the molecule contains carbon, oxygen and hydrogen elements.

Fatty acids are commonly found in lipids ans are made up of long chain alkanoic acids of general formular, RCOOH where R contains about 10 to 18 carbon atoms. the terminal -COOH group contains carbon, oxygen and hydrogen elements.

Sugars (monosaccharides): they are naturally occuring organic compounds containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, with the hydrogen and oxygen present in the ratio of 2:1. The general formula for monosaccharides is C₆H₆O₁₂.

Therefore, amino acids, fatty acids, and sugars (monosaccharides) have carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen in common.

Komok [63]

Answer:

The correct answers are options

B. "Sequencing reagents, such as dNTPs, ddNTPs, and DNA polymerase".

C. "A computer to blast the base pair sequence of the bacterial genomic insert against the genome sequence of your E. coli strain".

F. "An E. coli genomic library made from the mutant strain".

I. "A sequencing primer that hybridizes adjacent to the insertion site of the bacterial genomic fragment in the library plasmids, and pointing in the 5'-to-3' direction towards the bacterial genomic DNA insert".

Explanation:

Plasmid library transformation approaches are very useful to characterize novel mutant bacterium strains. In order to perform a characterization study of this kind, several reagents and tools are needed, including:

- "Sequencing reagents, such as dNTPs, ddNTPs, and DNA polymerase". One important part of knowing what makes novel mutant bacterium different is to sequencing its DNA.

- "A computer to blast the base pair sequence of the bacterial genomic insert against the genome sequence of your E. coli strain". BLAST is a useful computer tool that compares and aligns DNA sequences, this allows to detect what are the nucleotides that are unique in the novel mutant bacterium.

- "An E. coli genomic library made from the mutant strain". Once DNA has been sequenced, an genomic library must be constructed to ensure that this novel mutant is preserved.

- "A sequencing primer that hybridizes adjacent to the insertion site of the bacterial genomic fragment in the library plasmids, and pointing in the 5'-to-3' direction towards the bacterial genomic DNA insert". Sequencing primers are needed when new genomic libraries are constructed. This short DNA sequences allow DNA polymerase to synthesize the DNA an replicate the genome of interest.
