As diagrammed below, some amino acid biosynthetic operons have stem loop structures in the mRNA. These structures play a role in the regulation of the operon by which of the following mechanisms? Translation stop codon- Attenuator loop mRNA 5' 3' DNA attenuator trpE O Catabolite repressor protein can bind and prevent the hairpins from forming thus allowing translation to occur. O The leader sequence shown contains codons for the amino acid. When these are low, the ribosome stalls, allowing a hairpin between the two middle regions to form so that the rest of the message can be translated. In the presence of large amounts of the amino acid, the hairpin will wind around the amino acid and prevent further translation. O A repressor protein made of that amino acid will bind to the region and prevent translation when large amounts of the amino acid are present. O The uridine-rich region has codons for that amino acid; when present, this region will be a terminator region. The hairpins allow for an RNA to bind that then allows translation to occur. P Leader peptide coding region U-rich attenuator
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.
