Identify the following by describing their functions: EF-G, EF-Tu, EF-Ts, EF-P, and peptidyl transferase
1. A) Explain this statement, “Most enzymes are gene-encoded proteins, but most enzymes are not only
protein". B) You recently isolated a new enzyme in your lab, and you named it "lipidase 1120". As a
temporary name, this is fine. Who is responsible for assigning a formal name, and on what criteria will that
name be assigned?
I read that vinyl chloride exposure is associated with an increased risk of a rare form of liver cancer (hepatic angiosarcoma), as well as brain and lung cancers, lymphoma, and leukemia. But my question is what gene(s) are being mutated by this type of taxic gas?

Penicillin is a bacteriostatic drug because autolytic enzymes are not activated. b. Penicillin inhibits transpeptidases, which are required for cross-linking peptidoglycan. C. The structure of penicillin resembles that of a dipeptide of alanine, which is a component of peptidoglycan. D. An intact β-lactam ring of penicillin is required for its activity.arrow_forwardIn the: Exposure to a substance that mutates the Shine-Dalgarno sequence. Explain: (a) What is the process affected?

- You are studying a bacterial metabolic pathway that results in the synthesis of a product, vitalin, that is essential for survival. In the figure below, each number represents an intermediate product, and each letter represents the enzyme (protein) that catalyzes that step. d 3 e 5 Vitalin Compound 4 > Vitalin You find that bacteria with mutations in either c orf can survive, but a bacterial cell that has mutations in both c and f cannot survive. Which of the following statements explain your observations? Select all that apply. If both genes, c and f, are mutated, then vitalin cannot be synthesized O If gene c is mutated, then vitalin cannot be synthesized The pathway to synthesis of vitalin is branched, and either one can result in vitalin production gene c is mutated, then bacteria can survive by synthesizing vitalin using enzymes f and g Ifarrow_forwarda) Explain how oxidation of a substrate proceeds without oxygen.

- As we focused on the translation of mRNA into proteins as well as on protein structure and function. Along the way, we found many opportunities to consider the methods and reasoning by which much of this informationwas acquired. From the explanations given in the chapter,what answers would you propose to the following fundamentalquestion How do we know, based on studies of Neurospora nutritionalmutations, that one gene specifies one enzyme?arrow_forwardIn each case, these are enzymes that catalyze thesame reaction in different species. The question is: are they related or not? i.e. Are the structures essentially the same? Often you can get similar reactions from proteins thatevolved from a common ancestor (e.g., trypsin and chymotrypsin). Sometimes the samereaction can be catalyzed by proteins with very different evolutionary origins and with verydifferent structures (e.g., trypsin and subtilisin). Your job is to decide if these proteins have fundamentally different folds or if they have basically the same fold. Briefly justify your answer.1. Aminopeptidases from a mammal (PR1A) and the malaria parasite (PR1B)2. Bisphosphoglycerate mutase from a mammal (PR2A) and the toxoplasma parasite(PR2B)arrow_forwardProcedure This activity will use the Human β-hemoglobin gene, which is mutated in sickle cell anemia, with the following sequences of the first thirty (30) nucleotides: TAC CAC GTG GAC TGA GGA CAC CTC TTC AGA... 1. First transcribe the DNA sequence into the mRNA sequence. 2. Refer to the genetic code to write down the amino acid sequence that these 30 nucleotides encode beginning with the first nucleotide. 3. Generate a random number (1-30) by drawing lots in a bowl. Then locate the DNA nucleotide to "mutate" using the number drawn as the position along the gene. 4. "Roll" the tetrahedron "mutator" dice (see direction below for making the tetrahedron "mutator" dice). Note the letter on the side that is flat on the table. That is the nucleotide that will replace the nucleotide in the DNA at the position decided in the previous step. 5. Write the mutant nucleotide sequence in the row for Mutation 1, then analyze mutation. a. If it is the same nucleotide, write same nucleotide…arrow_forward
