You are studying a new strain of E. coli that can utilize the disaccharide melibiose very efficiently. You find that utilization depends on the enzyme melibiase, which is encoded by the gene Mel1. Mel1 is not expressed unless melibiose is present in the growth medium. Next you isolate a mutation, designated MelB–, which gives uninducible melibiase activity. Mapping experiments show that MelB– is linked to Mel1. Using an F' factor that carries the chromosomal region surrounding Mel1, you perform the following genetic tests:

 
Describe the proposal for the type of regulatory functions affected by the MelB– mutation.

#SCPH06 I Botany
  1. MelB is likely a positive regulator of Mel1 expression.
  2. MelB is likely a negative regulator of Mel1 expression.
  3.  MelB is likely a induced regulator of Mel1 expression.
  4. MelB is likely a constitutive regulator of Mel1 expression.

The above figure shows where sample applied was 100 µg of total protein extracted from a normal dog heart ventricle. The first dimension was conducted using a pH 4–7 isoelectric focussing gel. The second dimension was a 12% SDS–PAGE vertical slab gel. The pattern was visualised by silver staining. Which of the following techniques is applied
