BZ 310- Lab Quiz 3
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| partition coefficient | lower= will pass through the membrane (lipid soluble) |
| chloroform-methanol | lipid solvent |
| Triton X-100 | nonionic detergent |
| Sodium dodecyl sulfate | ionic detergent |
| most water soluble compound in list | n-propanol |
| least water soluble compound in list | glycerol |
| 5 properties that make E. coli DH5-alpha safe | pro/thi auxotroph, no polysaccharide layer, cell wall defects, lack of enzyme that degrades plasmid DNA, lack of ability to recombine DNA |
| EDTA | destabilizes cell wall and protects DNA from degradation |
| restriction enzymes depend on (2) | Mg2+ ions and neutral pH |
| find ug DNA | absorbance at 260 (DNA) x 50 ug/mL x 15 dilution x 1mL/1000 uL x 50 uL |
| absorbance is directly proportional to | concentration of the sample |
| hypotonic | less solutes outside of cell, cell bursts |
| bacterial trait helpful to molecular biologist but not doctor | altered so it cannot make one sick |
| the two different types of DNA present in bacteria are similar in what sense? | double stranded, encode for genes |
| wavelength DNA | 260nm |
| wavelength protein | 280nm |
| how did we differentiate between transformed and non-transformed cells? | whether or not they grew on antibiotics |
| two types of competent cells | yeast (naturally), any cell treated w/ CaCl2 |
| crenate | hypertonic |
| calculate CFU/mL | colonies/mL/(1/dilution) |
