Arthur is conducting an experiment of plasmid insertion. He has prepared some live bacteria and gone through all essential steps of plasmid insertion in a correct manner:
i) Cut open the plasmid by restriction enzyme and insert the gene by DNA ligase.
ii) Insert the plasmid into bacteria by heat shock.
iii) Grow the plasmid-containing bacteria in culture plate. However, after incubation, he failed to observe any successful cloning.
Assuming the enzymes involved could function properly.
List and expain FIVE possible errors that Arthur may have and lead to this unexpected result.

Which of the following statements about DNA repair is correct
Group of answer choices
during excision repair, an exonuclease is the first enzyme involved in removing a single-stranded segment of DNA from the template strand
none of the answer is correct
during mismatch repair, a methylated guanine in the consensus sequence GATC found on the parent strand activates the Mut complex
the Okazaki fragments synthesized during base excision repair are synthesized in a 3’ -- > 5’ fashion
repair of methylated DNA requires a set of proteins operating with the following order: endonuclease, exonuclease, DNA polymerase I, ligase and demethylase

Using circles to depict glucoses, draw a glycogen molecule with a main branch containing 12 glucose monomers. From the 5th glucose starting from the reducing end, draw a branch with 6 glucose monomers (Total 18 glucose monomers).
b)) Consider a liver cell with a debranching enzyme that lacks the ability hydrolyze 1,6 glycosidic linkages (it still has its other activity; all other enzymes are also working correctly). If this cell digests the above glycogen molecule, what would the products of this digestion look like? Draw the structure using circles to depict glucoses.

A)Triosephosphate isomerase(TIM)converts dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) into glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP) and vice-versa. This is one of the best-understood enzyme reactions. It has been studied extensively and we know the two critical side chains in the active site of TIM that catalyze the isomerization reaction. Write the mechanism of TIM showing the two catalytic side chains.
B) In the TIM reaction, the histidine residue starts off neutral, not positively charged (as one might expect since it donates a proton to the O-group). Explain why it makes energetic sense for the histidine not to start off positively charged.

1. If the pO2 is 30 mmHg in a given tissue, is more or less O bound at pH 7.6 compared with that bound at pH 7.2. Explain.
2. What role does CO2 play in determining/regulating blood pH? Explain.
3. Bis-phosphoglycerate (BPG) binds to hemoglobin. Discuss where and why it binds and the effect it has on the oxygen affinity of hemoglobin.
4. Describe two similarities and two differences between myoblobin and hemoglobin.
5. When the enzyme trypsin is denatured and then renatured it only regains 8% of its activity. Why is full activity not regained as it is with RNAase?
