Question

Answer iv only

A prototrophic strain (his* arg* lac*) was used as a donor to transform an auxotrophic strain (his arg
lac). Initial transformants are isolated on minimal medium + histidine + arginine + lactose - glucose.
i.
What genotypes will grow on this medium?
ii.
These colonies are replicated to minimal medium + histidine, and 50% of the original
colonies
grow.
What genotypes will grow on this medium?
The original colonies are also replicated to minimal medium + arginine, and 10% of the
colonies grow. What genotypes will
111.
grow on this medium?
iv.
The original colonies are also replicated to minimal medium. No colonies grow. Based
on this information, what genotypes will grow on minimal medium + histidine and on
minimal medium + arginine? What is the relative gene order for his, arg, and lac? Which
two genes are closer? Explain your answer.
