Mr. J dies of a massive myocardial infarction which is triggered by coronary thrombosis. After an autopsy, necrotic myocardium is found in the lateral and posterior right ventricle and posterior interventricular septum. Adequate information: The muscular wall of the heart is known as myocardium. It helps in contraction and relaxation of the heart muscle the contraction of muscles results in pumping the blood out of the heart, whereas relaxation of muscle results in a refill of the chamber of the heart. The myocardium is composed of two membranes epicardium (outer membrane) and endocardium (inner membrane). To determine: The place of occurrence of thrombosis in the coronary circulation. Given Information: The person dies of myocardial infarction. After an autopsy, the reason for myocardial infarction is found as necrotic myocardium. It blocks the lateral and posterior right ventricle and posterior interventricular septum.

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
