72 year old man, complaining of flu like symptoms, but without a fever.He also has a rash on the right side of his body. The rash consists of fluid filled blisters is very painful. Worst pain he has every had.Checking with our medical intern, he asks if during the patient history, if we asked our patient if he had the chicken pox as a child and if he has been vaccinated against shingles.Why would a childhood disease be important now?…. And what does a vaccine have to do with this?please don't answer this question unless you know the complete answers to the case study form below.This case study is for nursing class.

An E. coli mutant isolated is simultaneously unable to utilize a large number of sugars, e.g. lactose, arabinose, maltose, as carbon source.  However, genetic analysis shows that each of the operons responsible for metabolism of each sugar is free of mutation.  Name a specific gene the mutation of which may account for this outcome?   Explain.

Which of the following is true about interferon?

It is released by uninfected cells during a viral infection

It is produced by virally infected cells during a viral infection, whereupon it inhibits further viral replication within the cells where it is made.

It is produced by virally infected cells to activate helper T-cells.

It is released by virally infected cells to induce an antiviral state in uninfected cells. It is released by cells in lymph nodes to attract T cells to the lymph node.

DNA EXTRACTION & PURITY PROTOCOL

  1. Add a small piece of peeled banana (2-3 cm) and 12mL extraction buffer (NaCl & Sodium Citrate) into the beaker. This buffer contains salts necessary for the precipitation of the DNA. The ions in the solution make it more polar facilitating the dissolving of the DNA.
  2. Add 3mL detergent into the beaker. This will break open the cells and dissolve the DNA. Detergent breaks up the lipids of the plasma and nuclear membranes

Questions:

a. Why does a more polar solution make DNA more likely to dissolve?

b. How does detergent break up lipids in a membrane?

Imagine you identified what you believe to be a new, previously-unidentified spe- cies of bacterium. You therefore cultured the bacterium in the lab, purified RNA from the bacteria, made cDNA from the RNA, and obtained its sequence. What next step would you take to confirm whether this is, indeed, a novel species?
