In a transduction experiment where the recipient is Met-, Ala-, Gal- you observe a recombinant phenotype Met+, Gal+ in some strains and Gal+ Ala+ in some strains. But in none of the cases can you find Met+ Ala+. What is the sequence of the gene?

In a transduction experiment where the recipient is Met-, Ala-, Gal- you observe a recombinant phenotype Met+, Gal+ in some strains and Gal+ Ala+ in some strains. But in none of the cases can you find Met+ Ala+. What is the sequence of the gene? Correct Answer Met, Gal, Ala

The recombinant genotype Met+ Ala+ will only result in the case when there is a double cross over such that the middle portion is exchanged twice. This is of least occurrence and is deterministic for the sequence.

In an experiment of determining the order of gene in bacteria we use HFR which is gal+, Lac+, Ara+ and His+. If the recipient is negative for all these genes, and we selectively choose Gal + and get the pattern- 100 % recipients are Gal + 30% are His+ 55% are Lac + And only 5% are Ara+ What would be our inference?
In an experiment you have a U-Tube with two strains of bacteria in two arms. In one arm the bacteria are Gal+ and His-, in other the strain is Gal- and His+. If the two arms are joined by a membrane that doesn’t allow bacterial cells to pass to opposite site what will you observe when you plate each arm bacterial strain on minimal media?
In and interrupted mating experiment, it is seem that the after 10 mins AziR gene in recipient, after 20 minuites there is appearance of tonR and after 15 mins the recipient is lac+ , but the recipient is almost never his+. Where in the genome is the ori of transfer?
Which of the following statements about gene therapy are correct?
P. Affected individuals, but not their progeny, can be cured through germline gene therapy.
Q. Affected individuals, as well as their progeny, can be cured through germline gene therapy.
R. Affected individuals, but not their progeny, can be cured through somatic gene therapy.
S. Affected individuals, as well as their progeny, can be cured through somatic gene therapy.
S1: If you want to do well in your examinations you need to be able to think for yourself which means not just following the guide-books but write what you think yourself.
P: That will not help much.
Q: Few if any students do this.
R: By discussing things with other students, with your teachers, and with any intelligent people you meet you will find you can pick up a lot of new ideas but it is not good first accepting these ideas, swallowing them undigested and then repeating them in the examination.
S: At first you will find it difficult but if you go on trying you will find clear independent thought becomes easier.
S6: If however you turn these ideas over in our mind accepting those which you agree with and fitting them into your stock of knowledge and rejecting the others you may get somewhere.
