Captain Fallowell, an astronaut had been aboard at the international space station from last 8 months. He complained that he had increased heart rate and abnormal blood pressure while standing in the speech. Sometimes he feels dizziness while standing although his reflexes were normal with no any sign of head trauma. Characters in the case: Captain Fallowell. Adequate information: Captain Fallowell’s heart rate (HR) was 112 beats per minute during standing and 85 beats per minute while he was lying. It was noticed that he turned pale. To determine: The reason of dizziness on standing. Given information: After the medical checkup, Captain Fallowell’s HR was recorded at 112 and 85 beats per minute while standing and lying, respectively.

The diagram below illustrates a quorum sensing pathway from Staphylococcus aureus. Please answer the following questions. 1. Autoinduction is part of the quorum sensing system. Which promoter (P2 or P3) is critical for autoinduction? 2)This staphylococcus aureus grows on human wounds, causing severe infections. You would like to start a clinical trial to treat these wound infections. Please describe: a) What molecule do you recommend for the trial. Why? b) Your trial requires that Staphylococcus aureus be isolated from the wound and submitted to genome sequencing before admittance. Why? What are you testing for? 3) If a mutation arises where the Promoter P3 is constitutively active, how would that influence sensitivity to AIP? Please explain your rationale. 4) This pathway is sensitive to bacterial cell density. Describe two separate mutation that would render the pathway active independent of cell density. Briefly explain your rationale. Mutation 1 Mutation 2
