Summary Introduction

a.

To determine:

The way by which the number of a gene can be identified by using the data given in the experiment.

Introduction:

A viral plaque may be defined as the visible structure formed on the culture plate of bacteria or another organism. Plaque calculation helps us to know the number of virus present on the culture plate

Summary Introduction

b.

To determine:

The way to find that mutants belong to the same complementation group.

Introduction:

Complementation test is used to analyze whether the mutation in two strains belongs to the same group or different group. The mutation in the same group doesn't result in the formation of the complementation group.

You observe the following: Your Your friend's Gel Gel 120 kDa 100 kDa 120 kDa 100 kDa -80 kDa 80 kDa -40 kDa 40 kDa a. You and your friend analyzed the same protein sample in your gels. Why are your results different? Explain briefly which gel is the correct representation of the SDS-PAGE & Western blot, and why? b. Explain briefly the size of protein observed in the chromatography column and the Western blot. Are they different or the same, why? (S c. If the primary antibody to Protein A was made in a mouse, describe the details of the secondary antibody used in the Western blot analysis?
Eight mutant bacteriophage strains cannot lyse a certain type of bacteria that can be lysed by wild-type bacteriophages. The mutant strains were allowed to infect the bacteria in a complementation test. A "+" indicates that lysis occurred with coinfection. A "-" indicates that lysis did not occur. GKWTMAQC G- ++++- K W T M A Q C - + +++ - ++++ - + + - + - + - - + + + A cistron is defined by no complementation in the How many genes are controlling lysis in this bacteriophage? (Use a number not a word in the space) configuration.
