Precision will be reduced, but yield will be increased

Optimisation of a PCR reaction is often a compromise between the competing demands for precision, efficiency and yield. Although the specific effects may vary, generally, increasing the annealing temperature will increase non-specific primer binding and reduce precision. Increasing the length of the elongation phase will reduce the proportion of incomplete newly-synthesised strands and therefore increase yield. In this case, the potential effect on efficiency is unclear. Increasing the elongation phase would increase the reaction time, but the time taken to ramp down to a lower annealing temperature would be reduced.

How primer concentration leads to decrease in PCR efficiency?

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.

You next construct a MelA– MelB– double mutant, which gives the following behavior:

 

Which of your two models is consistent with this new data?

a) the MelA- MelB- double mutant is identical to the MelB- mutant

b) MelA- is epistatic to MelB-

c) MelB- is epistatic to MelA-

d) the MelA- MelB- double mutant is identical to the MelA- mutant

Which of the following is the correct prediction about the double mutants?
