One of the enzyme that are involve in the ammonium assimilation is Asparagine synthetase (AS), some statements given below about AS such as,

a) This enzyme that catalyzes this reaction, is found in the cytosol of leaves and roots and in nitrogen-fixing nodules

b) High levels of light and carbohydrate inhibit the expression of genes coding for AS and the activity of the enzyme

c) Conditions of ample energy stimulate AS, thus they favor nitrogen assimilation into glutamine and glutamate

d) Energy-limited conditions inhibit GS and GOGAT, stimulate AS, and thus favor nitrogen assimilation into asparagine, a compound that is rich in nitrogen and sufficiently stable for long-distance transport or long term storage

Which of the following statements about AS is correct?

The structure of the four major protein complexes in the thylakoid membrane are organised form such as ;

a.) PSII is located predominantly in the stacked regions of the thylakoid membrane and Cytochrome b6f complexes are evenly distributed

b.) PSI and ATP synthase are found in the unstacked regions protruding into the stroma

c.) Lateral separation of the two photosystems requires that electrons and protons produced by PSII be transported directly to PSI and the ATP coupling enzyme

d.) Four main protein complexes of the thylakoid membrane, shown also are the two diffusible electron carriers—plastocyanin, which is located in the thylakoid lumen, and plastohydroquinone (PQH2) in the membrane, The lumen has a positive electrical charge with respect to the stroma

You are a scientist who is using genomics to currently study a new bacterial species that no one has ever studied before. The following sequence is a piece of DNA within the coding region of a gene that you have recently sequenced.
 
If you take any bacterial gene sequence, before you begin doing any sequence analysis on it, there are six potential open reading frames. Why are there six?
