#Unit 13. Methods in Biology

You are studying a specific gene in yeast, and you want to express that yeast gene in E. coli. Your task is to design a strategy to insert the yeast gene into the bacterial plasmid. Below is a map of the area of the yeast genome surrounding the gene in which you are interested.
 
The distance between each tick mark placed on the line above is 100 bases in length
Below are the enzymes you can use, with their specific cut sites shown 5’-XXXXXX-3’ 3’-XXXXXX-5’
 
The plasmid is 5,000 bases long and the two farthest restriction enzyme sites are 200 bases apart. The plasmid has an ampicillin resistance gene somewhere on the plasmid distal from the restriction cut sites.
                                    
You transform your ligation planned in which two restriction enzymes would you use to design a way to get the insert into the vector if you had to use two enzymes simultaneously, into bacteria and plate the bacteria on Petri plates containing ampicillin. (You actually transform six different ligation mixtures, which are described below, into six different populations of cells, and plate each transformation onto a different plate, because you want to do all of the correct controls.) The next day you come in to lab to look at how many colonies of bacteria are on each plate. You are really excited, because the number of colonies you see on each plate tells you that the entire procedure worked! Which of the three following patterns of number of colonies did you see in order to conclude that you had a successful transformation?
In this table, DV = digested vector. DYG = digested yeast genome.

The colored pigments of plants are of two principal types: carotenoids and flavonoids. Given below some statements of about these pigments;

 a) Anthocyanins are colored flavonoids that attract animals

b) Flavonoids are phenolic compounds that include a wide range of colored substances

c) Carotenoids are coloured terpenoid compounds that also serve as accessory pigments in photosynthesis

d) most widespread group of pigmented carotenoids is the anthocyanins, these are glycosides that have sugars. Without their sugars, anthocyanins are known as anthocyanidins

Which of the following is incorrect statements of these pigments;
