You genetically modified a bacterium so it can only produce ribosomes from a plant. The most immediate effect on this bacterium would be; A. Nothing. It would produce proteins as normal because the genetic code is essentially universal B. It may not be able to produce proteins C. It would not be able to transcribe mRNA D. It would not be able to remove introns Select the best option above and explain why you chose that answer. Your explanation should include a description of the role of the ribosome in the cell and how it interacts with mRNA and tRNA. As well as explanations for why the other options are not correct
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.
