Part1: Using the DNA nucleotide sequences for the wild-type and mutant genes in the following tables, determine the complementary mRNA sequence for the five portions of the Mc1r gene provided. (Note: You are only transcribing short portions of the DNA sequence for this protein. The actual gene contains 954 base pairs.) Part2: Using completed the mRNA sequence, determine the resulting amino acid sequence of the MC1R protein. (Note: You are translating only a portion of protein. The full protein is 317 amino acids long. The numbers above the columns in the tables indicate amino acid positions in the protein sequence.) You may use the genetic code chart provided
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.
