Bacterial strain A (met+, his-, arg+) is mixed with bacterial strain B (met-, his+, arg-), grown in complete media, then plated on minimal media. The colonies that grow on the plate indicate that ________.

Group of answer choices

the wild-type met gene has been transferred from A to B

the wild-type met and arg genes have been transferred from A to B

the wild-type his gene has been transferred from B to A

the wild-type arg gene has been transferred from A to B

genes have been transferred between A and B, but no further conclusions can be made

Expert Solution

Answer- the wild-type met and arg genes have been transferred from A to B.

According to Lederberg and Tatum of genetic recombination theory,the mixing of Bacterial strain A (met+, his-, arg+) with bacterial strain B (met-, his+, arg-) ,exchange the genetic material in complete media.When mixture plated on the minimal media (having less nutrients), the recombinant cells (met+,his+,arg+)were able to synthesize the constituents for metabolism. The Bacterial strain A (met+, his-, arg+) and bacterial strain B (met-, his+, arg-)separately can't grow as they can't synthesize the constituents for metabolism.

An Hfr strain that is met + pro + bio + his + was mated with an F- strain that was met - pro - bio - his -.

An Hfr strain that is met + pro + bio + his + was mated with an F- strain that was met - pro - bio - his -. Mating was interrupted and the percentage of cells with each phenotype was determined by replica plating the cells on minimal media plates that lacked met, pro, bio or his. The data shown in Figure 1 were obtained. (Figure 1) Using the data in Figure 1, label each line on the results...

Deduce the sequence of a heptapeptide that contains the amino acids Gly, His, Tyr, Ser, Ala, Met, and Arg, from the following experimental data

Deduce the sequence of a heptapeptide that contains the amino acids Gly, His, Tyr, Ser, Ala, Met, and Arg, from the following experimental data. Edman degradation cleaves Ala from the heptapeptide, and carboxypeptidase forms His and a hexapeptide. Treatment of the heptapeptide with chymotrypsin forms a hexapeptide and a single amino acid. Treatment of the heptapeptide with trypsin forms a pentapeptide and a dipeptide. Partial hydrolysis forms His, Ala, Tyr, and the tripeptides Ser-Gly-Met and Gly-Met-Arg. 7 amino acids total
