Chapter 5.2, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To describe:
The reason for the observation that the H-2 proteins were found on only one side of the cells when they are incubated at 0ºC.
Introduction:
Protein is one of the components that make the membrane molecules. Two categories of membrane proteins are integral proteins and peripheral proteins. Examples of membrane proteins are receptors, enzymes, channel proteins, cell-adhesion molecules, and carriers.

Do letter 4 and draw a titration curve as directed in letter 4 c) for pka 4.7, labelling all the axes.
Rarely, the conjugation of Hfr and F− cells produces two Hfr cells. Explain how this event takes place.
In a nutrient medium that lacks histidine, a thin layer of agar containing ~109 Salmonella typhimurium histidine auxotrophs (mutant cells that require histidine to survive) produces ~13 colonies over a two-day incubation period at 37 ° C. How do these colonies arise in the absence of histidine? The experiment is repeated in the presence of 0.4 μg of 2-aminoanthracene. The number of colonies produced over two days exceeds 10,000.What does this indicate about 2-aminoanthracene? What can you surmise about its carcinogenicity?

One of your tasks is to make sure that there is enough cell culture medium containing antibiotics to grow bacteria. One day you realize that there is only 5 ml of 10% Antibiotic stock solution in the freezer. You decide to use it all to prepare the working culture medium with 0.01% antibiotic. In the lab there is plenty of growth medium without antibiotics. (Note: dilution in medium is like dilution in water). You remember the equation to make dilutions of stock solutions. You usually use this formula to calculate the required volume of a stock solution, but you realize it can apply here as well, even though the unknown is the final volume. So, you make that dilution.

- Fifteen bacterial colonies growing on a complete medium (that means that they have all of nutrients that they need supplied in the dish, and they don't actually need to synthesize these compounds to survive) are transferred to minimal medium. Twelve of the colonies grow on minimal medium. Three colonies do not grow on minimal medium. But, if these three colonies are put on a plate that has minimal medium supplemented with the amino acid serine (min + Ser), they all What does this suggest about the three bacterial colonies (pick all that apply)? grow. They lack the ability to synthesize their own serine. O They are probably wild-type. They probably have a mutation that causes them to lack a certain protein.
