A bacterium is infected with an experimentally-constructed virus (bacteriophage) composed of the T2 phage protein and the T4 phage DNA. The resulting progeny phages would have
| a. |
T2 protein and T4 DNA |
|
| b. |
T4 protein and T2 DNA |
|
| c. |
T2 protein and T2 DNA |
|
| d. |
T4 protein and T4 DNA |
Ans.
d. T4 protein and T4 DNA.
Explanation :
As we know the phage insert only its DNA inside the host (Bacteria) and the protein coat remains outside the cell wall of the host.
So, in this case T4 DNA will get inserted inside the host and T2 phage protein will remain outside the host.
Then the T4 DNA will code for the T4 protein not for T2 protein.
Hence, the resulting progeny phages would have T4 protein and T4 DNA.

A permissive bacterial strain is simultaneously infected with
two strains of T4- like phage. One phage strain has the genotype a
-b + , while the other is a +b - . If the map distance between
markers a and b is about 10 map units, what proportion of the
progeny phages are expected to have the genotype a +b +?

22. (2 pts) The following step(s) occur in replication of both Bdellovibrio and a lytic virus such as T4, pathogens of E. coli. A. The genetic material of the pathogen is injected into the host cell B. The pathogen carbohydrates in the host to replicate itself. uses C. The host cell lyses, releasing the replicated pathogen D. The host cell DNA polymerase replicates the pathogen genome. 23. (2 pts) Phage are composed of nucleic acid and protein. Which of the...
E. coli strain B is doubly infected with two rII mutants of phage T4. 0.1 ml of a 10^6 dilution of the progeny is plated on E. coli B and 0.1 ml of a 10^5 dilution of the progeny is plated on E. coli K. 400 plaques appeared on strain B, 10 on strain K. Calculate the map distance between these two mutations. Please show detailed work to demonstrate where each number comes from and state your reasoning. A. 0.05...

The bacteriophage used in this experiment reproduces by the
lytic cycle. Suppose a similar experiment were conducted with a
bacteriophage that uses the lysogenic cycle. How would the effect
on the infected bacteria MOST likely differ?
A. The bacteriophage would attach to the bacteria and reproduce
in the extracellular space.
B. The bacteriophage would become permanently dormant and
unresponsive to environmental cues for reproduction.
C. The bacteriophage would attach its genes to the bacteria’s
DNA, allowing its genes to be...
