Chapter 22.3, Problem 3MI
Summary Introduction
Formate dehydrogenase (FDH) is an enzyme that splits the formic acid into H2 and CO2. E.coli consists of three FDH enzymes (FDH-O, FDH-N, FDH-H) that differ from each other. Production of FDH-N occurs under microaerobic conditions and when nitrate acts as a terminal electron acceptor. FDH-N production takes place under anoxic conditions and when the terminal electron acceptor is nitrate. Synthesis of FDN-H (H indicates hydrogen production occurs during fermentation.

- You are studying a cytoskeletal accessory protein, AB2. You believe it is involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis allowing for the entry of a novel virus, SARS-CoV X, into the host cell. To confirm that AB2 is required for viral entry, you engineer an AB2 protein containing an N-terminal hydrophobic signal sequence and a C-terminal KDEL sequence (AB2-SSKDEL) and express it in human epithelial airway cells. You compare cells expressing wild-type (WT) AB2 (lacking the signal sequence and KDEL sequence) with cells expressing AB2-SSKDEL. You are looking at the entry of a GFP (green) virus into cells. If AB2 is required for viral entry, via receptor-mediated endocytosis, what results would you expect to see in terms of viral entry? A. WT AB2 - Green ER AB2-SSKDEL - No green ER B. WT AB2-NO green cells AB2-SSKDEL - Many green cells OC. WT AB2 - Many green cells AB2-SSKDEL - NO green cells D.WT AB2 - Green nuclei AB2-SSKDEL - No green nucleiarrow_forwardWhat role does quorum sensing play in bioluminescence?arrow_forwardThe monod model relates bacterial growth to substrate utilization. (i) The relationship of growth-limiting substrate utilization to bacterial growth is what is at the heart of the model. (ii) The mathematical equations of the model can vary in complexity depending on the given conditions (iii) Endogenous decay is the only mechanisms of cell death that is important enough to warrant representation in the monod model.

Drag and drop the events into the proper sequence from left to right. ▸ View Available Hint(s) First Step Transformed cells are detected by the presence of lacz, which causes them to cleave Xgal and produce a blue color. Yeast is transformed using Mycoplasma mycoides fragments. The synthetic chromosome is transformed into Mycoplasma capricolum. The synthetic Mycoplasma mycoides chromosome is purified. DNA fragments assemble through homologous recombination in yeast. Reset Help Last Steparrow_forwardYeast cells are eukaryotes, and they require a functional secretory pathway to grow and to maintain cellular organization. But surprisingly, when SRP is removed from yeast cells by deleting the relevant genes, the cells are still alive (although they grow slowly). a) How can yeast survive without SRP?
