c.
To determine:
The characteristics that a person would expect to see in the DNA isolated from a strain with a temperature-sensitive mutation in the gene that encodes DNA polymerase III.
Introduction:
Conditional mutations:
This mutationexpresses “mutant phenotype” only in certain conditions called “restrictive conditions”, and “normal phenotype” in other conditions called the “permissive conditions”. Example of conditional mutation: a temperature-sensitive mutation that expresses the “mutant phenotype” only at certain temperatures.
E. coli strain is isolated, and it contains temperature-sensitive mutations in its genes that encode different components for the replication process. The protein produced in each of the strain is contained mutated gene that is nonfunctional under the “restrictive conditions”. They are grown under “permissive conditions” and further rapidly enter to the “restrictive condition”. Under the restrictive condition, after one round of DNA replication, from each strain, the DNA is isolated.

- A 25-year-old woman presents to the emergency department with a 2-day history of fever, chills, severe headache, and confusion. She recently returned from a trip to sub-Saharan Africa, where she did not take malaria prophylaxis. On examination, she is febrile (39.8°C/103.6°F) and hypotensive. Laboratory studies reveal hemoglobin of 8.0 g/dL, platelet count of 50,000/μL, and evidence of hemoglobinuria. A peripheral blood smear shows ring forms and banana-shaped gametocytes.
