A.

Summary Introduction

To determine: What would happen if bacteria containing a phage in prophage state are irradiated with UV light and c1 protein is degraded.

Introduction: When bacteriophages infect a host cell, their DNA follows two fates in the form of lytic and lysogenic cycles. Lytic cycle refers to generation of new phages and lysis of a cell. Lysogeny also known as prophage stage refers to integration of phage in the host’s genome where it replicates with host DNA over many generations. These are controlled by c1 and Cro transcription regulators encoded by virus.

B.

Summary Introduction

To determine: Whether the change due to UV irradiation can be reversed when UV light is switched off.

Introduction: When bacteriophages infect a host cell, their DNA follows two fates in the form of lytic and lysogenic cycles. Lytic cycle refers to generation of new phages and lysis of a cell. Lysogeny also known as prophage stage refers to integration of phage in the host’s genome where it replicates with host DNA over many generations. These are controlled by c1 and Cro transcription regulators encoded by virus.

C.

Summary Introduction

To determine: Why this response to UV light might have evolved.

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
