All of the following statements are correct EXCEPT a. DNA forms described by Watson and Crick have right handed helix except of Z-DNA form b. In case of Z-DNA form, the deoxyribose phosphate backbone forms a "Zigzag structure" c. Inverted DNA sequence repeat that happens within each individual strand of the DNA, called cruciform d. Plasmid carries genes that convey antibiotic resistance to the host bacterium
Bacterial Genomics
The study of the morphological, physiological, and evolutionary aspects of the bacterial genome is referred to as bacterial genomics. This subdisciplinary field aids in understanding how genes are assembled into genomes. Further, bacterial or microbial genomics has helped researchers in understanding the pathogenicity of bacteria and other microbes.
Transformation Experiment in Bacteria
In the discovery of genetic material, the experiment conducted by Frederick Griffith on Streptococcus pneumonia proved to be a stepping stone.
Plasmids and Vectors
The DNA molecule that exists in a circular shape and is smaller in size which is capable of its replication is called Plasmids. In other words, it is called extra-chromosomal plasmid DNA. Vectors are the molecule which is capable of carrying genetic material which can be transferred into another cell and further carry out replication and expression. Plasmids can act as vectors.
