Question
Chapter 19.5, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To predict: The exchange of F plasmid between the F donor cell and the F recipient cell.
Introduction: The F factor stands for fertility factor. These are present in the bacteria that perform sexual reproduction. It is a type of plasmid, which is present in a few bacteria that are known as the high frequency for recombination (Hfr).

Q1. Predict the effects (on translation of coat gene and replicase gene) of the following mutations on phage R17 coat gene and replicase gene translation and explain the logic of your answers:
a. An amber mutation (premature stop codon) six codons downstream of the coat gene initiation codon.
b. Mutations in the stem loop around the coat gene initiation codon that weakens the base-pairing in the stem loop.
c. Mutations in the interior of the replicase gene that cause it to base-pair with the coat gene initiation codon.
The terms conjugation, transduction, and transformation are usedto describe three different natural forms of genetic transferbetween bacterial cells. Briefly discuss the similarities and differencesamong these processes?
