Answer: Despite the availability of antibiotics that lyse E coli cells, the reason this is NOT recommended in course of treatment is because the antimicrobial agents may trigger the lytic cycle and result in increased toxin expression.
Explanation:
Shiga toxin (Stx) are toxins which are produced by shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli ( STEC). The antimicrobial agents may also trigger the lytic cycle and result in increased toxin expression.
Answer:
B. It was necessary that each of the two phage components, DNA and protein, be identifiable upon recovery at the end of the experiment.
Explanation:
Hershey and Martha Chase used radiolabeled the DNA of some of the bacteriophage cells with phosphorus (32P). They radiolabeled the sulfur (35S) of the coat protein in the second batch of the phage cells. They infected some of the bacterial cells with phage having radiolabeled DNA while the other <em>E. coli</em> cells were infected with the phage carrying radiolabeled coat protein. This allowed the clear identification of the radiolabelled molecule (DNA or protein) present in the host cell.
They observed that the <em>E. coli </em>cells infected with phage having radiolabeled DNA exhibited the radioactivity while the other batch of the host cell did not show it.
Answer:
The name of the innate immune component is MEMBRANE ATTACK COMPLEX.
Explanation:
The membrane attack complex is a type of structure that is usually formed on the surface of the cell membrane of invading pathogens due to the activation of the immune system. Membrane attack complex is also known as terminal complement complex. Individuals that lack this immune component due to mutations usually experience recurrent infections.
