Genetic Transformation of Escherichia coli with pGLO Ahmed Islam Abstract Aim: This experiment is designed to help understand the concept of genetic transformation. This is the uptake of DNA fragments from the environment by a competent bacterium. Competency must be induced in bacterium such as Escheria coli. Also, this lab helps understand the concepts of plasmids, specifically pGLO, and their genes, specifically green fluorescent gene (GFP). Expression will be regulated using promoters.
They are ten to 100 times larger than viruses. A virus is a small infectious agent that can replicate only inside the living cells of organisms. Most viruses are too small to be seen directly with a light microscope. They infect all types of organisms, from animals and plants to bacteria and Achaea. All viruses have genes made from either DNA or RNA, long molecules that carry genetic information; all have a protein coat that protects these genes; and some have an envelope of fat that surrounds them when they are outside a cell.
Genetically inherited traits depend upon genes found in DNA (de-oxy ribose nucleic acid), the fundamental molecule of chromosomes. DNA carries the information that determines what physical and genetic characteristics can be found in organisms. It does not dictate all of an individual's characteristics, because many aspects of most species are shaped features of the environment in which they live. DNA codes for mRNA which binds with a molecule of transfer RNA in the ribosomes, this tRNA carries a corresponding amino acid, which is coded for by the mRNA. When the MRNA and tRNA bind the amino acid is deposited and binds with an adjacent amino acid forming a polypeptide chain and eventually (after modification by other organelles) forms a protein codes for proteins.

Changes in climate or introduction of a new species from elsewhere can greatly affect the balance of nature. A virus is a small infectious agent that can replicate only inside the living cells of organisms. Most viruses are too small to be seen directly with a light microscope. Viruses infect all types of organisms, from animals and plants to bacteria and archaea. All viruses have genes made from either DNA or RNA, long molecules that carry genetic information; all have a protein coat that protects these genes; and some have an envelope of fat that surrounds them when they are outside a cell.
Latent infection- does not produce disease symptoms, yet the viral genetic information is inside the cell Vaccine-“teaches” the immune system to recognize one or more molecular components of virus without actually exposing the person to the disease Viroid- is highly wound circle of RNA that lacks a protein coat; it is simply naked RNA that can infect a cell Notes 7.3 * Transcription produces an RNA copy of one gene. It is a three step process * 1 step is Initiation: enzymes unwind the DNA double helix exposing the template strand that encodes the RNA molecule. RNA polymerase (the enzyme that builds an RNA chain) binds to the promoter, a DNA sequence that signals the gene start. * Step 2 is Elongation: RNA polymerase moves along the DNA strand, adding nucleotides to the growing RNA

They remain as loosely coiled chromatin.The nuclear membrane is still intact to protect the DNA molecules from undergoing mutation. | | | 2. ProphaseThe DNA molecules progressively shortenand condense by coiling, to form chromosomes. The nuclear membrane andnucleolus are no longer visible.The spindle apparatus has migrate to opposite poles of the cell.. | | | 3.

A pilus is a hair-like characteristic found on the outside of bacteria. Bacteria use their pili to connect to its species, or other species, and ultimately build a bridge from the interior, which enables plasmid exchange that can lead to antibiotic resistance. A sex pilus stabilizes bacterial mating during the exchange of DNA (Citation 8). Under the best conditions, bacteria can divide every 1-3 hours, and even some species can make a new generation in 20 minutes. Prokaryotic reproduction is limited due to the resources.
