Discovery of penicillin in the year 1928 revolutionized it all for medical research.
Alexander Fleming discovered the bacterial killer or antibiotic in Streptococcus culture. This was used to trat several injured during world war II and saved thosands of life. This prompted pharmaceutical companies to invest in research for discovery of products with antibacterial properties that can save human life.

Question 2
Classical DNA sequencing is a powerful technique. Consider a situation where you first sequence a normal strand of DNA, then sequence a mutated strand. When analysing the results of sequencing reactions, run on a gel, would you be able to distinguish each of the following mutation types, compared to unmutated sequence, using classic "Sanger" sequencing? A silent mutation An insertion of 6 nucleotides A sense mutation Which of the following factors directly breaks phosphodiester bonds? Select all that...
