- How would you determine if a transfection was transient or stable? This image might be helpfularrow_forwardDescribe the mechanisms of horizontal gene transfer in bacteria, describing the manner in which the DNA can be transferred from one cell to another.Choose a disease or an organism that has a well-documented mechanism of resistance (such as methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus - MRSA or tuberculosis) and identify the gene or genes that confer resistance and the method of DNA transfer thought to contribute to its spread. This may be from one organism to another or may simply be passed down from mother to daughter cell due to environmental pressure.arrow_forwardYou are working with a recA- strain of E. coli (cannot produce functional RecA, nor carry out homologous recombination). In which horizontal gene transfer process(es) could cells of this strain successfully undergo genetic change? In conjugation, as a recipient of a portion of chromosomal DNA from a Hfr donor. In conjugation, as a recipient of a plasmid from a F+ donor. In natural transformation, as a recipient of a portion of chromosomal DNA. There are no HGT processes that could result in genetic change of this strain. In generalized transduction, as a recipient of a portion of chromosomal DNA.arrow_forward
- A hypothetical gene for cephalosporin resistance is found to be carried by a transposon. Explain what a transposon is. Then explain how the cephalosporin resistance could be horizontally transferred between organisms by transformation, conjugation, and transduction. What steps/events would have to occur to allow the transposon to be transferred by each method. Also, explain how it could be transferred vertically between organisms.arrow_forwardPictured below is a map of the pBR322 plasmid vector.
