Calculate the number of times the DNA of a modern E. coli cell has been copied accurately since its earliest bacterial precursor cell arose about 3.5 billion years ago. Assume for simplicity that over this time period, E. coli has undergone, on average, one cell division every 12 hours (this is an overestimate for modern bacteria, but probably an underestimate for ancient bacteria).

#Section C (Domain-Specific Knowledge)

Which of the following statements is correct regarding the stereochemistry of Thr, Ile 

1. Thr, Ile is special case because of two chiral center exist in L-Ile in 2R,3S and L-Thr in 2R,3S configuration 

2. Thr, Ile is special case because of two chiral center exist in D-Ile in 2R,3S and D-Thr in 2R,3S configuration 

3. Thr, Ile is special case because of two chiral center exist in L–Ile in 2S,3R and L–Thr in 2S,3R 

4. Thr, Ile is special case because of two chiral center exist in D–Ile in 2S,3R and D–Thr in 2S,3R
