- How was Escherichia coli modified to produce indigo?arrow_forwardAustin Taylor and Edward Adelberg isolated some new strains of Hfr cells that they then used to map several genes in E. coli by using interrupted conjugation . In one experiment, they mixed cells of Hfr strain AB-312, which were xyl+ mtl+ mal+ met+ and sensitive to phage T6, with F− strain AB-531, which was xyl− mtl− mal− met− and resistant to phage T6. The cells were allowed to undergo conjugation. At regular intervals, the researchers removed a sample of cells and interrupted conjugation by killing the Hfr cells with phage T6. The F− cells, which were resistant to phage T6, survivedand were then tested for the presence of genes transferred from the Hfr strain. The results of this experiment are shown in the accompanying graph. On the basis of these data, give the order of the xyl, mtl, mal, and met genes on the bacterial chromosome and indicate the minimum distances between them.arrow_forwardAn F' merozygote is formed as a result of the following events: 1) the recipient cell receives genes which used to be a part of an Hfr bacterium chromosome 2) an F' bacterium excuses an F factor from another bacterium chromosome 3) an F factor that was imprecisely excised from Hfr chromosome was transferred to an F- bacterium 4)an F' bacterium conjugate with an F- bacterium 5) an F' bacterium incorporates an F factor into its chromosome 6) an F- bacterium incorporates an F factor into its chromosomearrow_forward
