E. coli cells are simultaneously infected with two strains of phage λ. One strain has a mutant host range, is temperature sensitive, and produces clear plaques (genotype h st c); another strain carries the wildtype alleles (genotype h+ st+ c+). Progeny phages are collected from the lysed cells and are plated on bacteria. The following numbers of different progeny phages are obtained: Progeny phage genotype Number of plaques h+ c+ st+ 321 h c st 338 h+ c st 26 h c+ st+ 30 h+ c st+ 106 h c+ st 110 h+ c+ st 5 h c st+ 6 a.

8. You infect E. coli cells with two strains of T4 virus. One strain is minute (m), rapid lysis (r) and turbid (t); the other is wild-type for all three markers. The lytic products of this dual infection are plated on a lawn of E. coli and the morphology of the plaques are classified. The resulting 10, 342 plaques were distributed among eight phenotypes, as follows: mrt 3467 +++ 3729 mr+ 853 m+t 162 m++ 520 +rt 474 +r+ 172 ++t 965 You decide to repeat the exact same experiment as outlined above and this time you count and classify 25, 000 plaques? How many plaques would you expect to be wild-type for all three markers? (Hint: You will need to calculate the expected DCO class for the cross above and apply that to your answer.)
You infect bacteria with two phages during a cis test. This produces a lysate that contains phage particles. Before you can count outcomes, you need to work out the amount of phage to use in subsequent experiments. You start by making two ten- fold serial dilutions of the lysate and then add 1mL of the final diluted lysate to a plate of permissive strain e.coli. You observe 10 plaques. How many phage per mL were present in the original lysate? a. 10 phage/mL o b. 3,300 phage/mL c. 10,000 phage/mL o d. 1,000 phage/mL e. 33 phage/mL

In E. coli, the gene bioD+ encodes an enzyme involved in biotin synthesis, and galK+ encodes an enzyme involved in galactose utilization. An E. coli strain that contained wild-type versions of both genes was infected with P1 phage, and then a P1 lysate was obtained. This lysate was used totransduce (infect) a strain that was bioD− and galK−. The cellswere plated on a medium containing galactose as the sole carbonsource for growth to select for transduction of the galK+ gene.This medium also was supplemented with biotin. The resultingcolonies were then restreaked on a medium that lacked biotin tosee if the bioD+ gene had been cotransduced. The following resultswere obtained:What information do you know based onthe question and your understanding of the topic?

You are designing a phage therapy for a cystic fibrosis patient with an multi-antibiotic resistant Mycobacterium infection. The Mycobacterium infection is preventing the patient from taking immunosuppressant drugs that are needed for a successful lung transplant. The idea is that introducing the right phage to the patient will kill the Mycobacterium cells and allow the patient to go on immunosuppressant drugs that will ensure the new lung is not rejected by the body. You need to find a phage that infects the Mycobacterium you isolated from the patient. Which TWO options have the highest chance of success? Group of answer choices 1.Isolating new phage from soil using a plaque assay with the Mycobacterium isolate 2.Choosing likely candidates from analysis of phage 16S rRNA phylogeny in the tree of life 3.Obtaining a very well-studied phage, such as T4 bacteriophage, that specifically targets E. coli 4.Screening a colleague's library of known Mycobacterium phages for phage that…

Our Western Blot experiment requires a buffer called TBS. At working concentration (1X), this buffer contains: 20 mM Tris 150 mM NaC1. Prior to use, however, the buffer is made and stored as a 10X concentrated stock What are the concentrations of these two ingredients in the 10X stock? Primary antibodies for the Western Blot experiment are prepared using this TBS buffer, with the addition of several other ingredients.
