Chapter 17, Problem 13CONQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The function of Cas1, Cas2, and Cas9 proteins for the defense in a bacterial genome.
Introduction:
The CRISPR-Cas system is a significant defense system in prokaryotes. It provides an effective defense against foreign invaders like bacteriophage, transposons, and plasmids. The CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) locus contains a series of repeated sequences which are derived from the DNA of bacteriophage.

One of the ways for a cell to generate ATP is through the oxidative phosphorylation. In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?
