C. How do RecA and RecBCD function to promote recombination? D. Endonuclease activity of RecBCD is greater in the 3'-5' strand, rather than the 5'-3' strand. Describe how this affects strand invasion, branch migration and resolution. E. How is recombination initiated during meiosis in eukaryotes? F. What is the connection between nonhomologous end joining repair and canc

2. Suppose that you isolated an enveloped helical RNA virus. Purified RNA from this virus is capable of supporting translation in a rabbit reticulocyte cell‑free translation system or in any other such system Further analysis indicates that this virus replication is inhibited if infected cells are incubated with protease inhibitor such as trypsin inhibitor. Based on this information, discuss the mechanism by which this virus replicates its genome in infected susceptible, permissive cells.

The lac operon of E. coli encodes the two enzymes ß-Galactosidase and Permease. Indicate in the following table whether these enzymes are synthesized (“+”) or not (“–“) given the genotypes in the left column and the presence or absence of the inducer. Note that some of the genotypes are partial diploids, i.e. a second copy of the operon is present on a separate plasmid.
