In Methicillin resistant bacteria, what have the bacteria developed that allows them to stay alive in the presence of Methicillin?
The 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.
Group of answer choices
1.Only (i) and (ii)
2.Only (i) and (iii) are correct
3.(i), (ii) and (iii) are all correct
Under cellular conditions, dATP can be oxidized to its 2-hydroxy form, which is a substrate for an enzyme that converts 2-OH-dATP to 2-OH-dAMP + PPi. Explain why compounds that inhibit the activity of this enzyme would be eff ective anticancer agents.
