What is the main advantage of using Yeast Artificial Chromosome based vector over other vectors?

1. It has ability to clone very large fragments of DNA.

2. YAC vectors do not contain origin of replication sites 

3. It has insert  range up to 2000 kb.

4. It help in genome mapping and sequencing projects.

How to Phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK-1) and Fructose 1,6-Bisphosphatase are reciprocally regulated ?

a) ATP inhibits PFK-1 by binding to an allosteric site and lowering the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate fructose 6-phosphate

b) citrate is also an allosteric regulator of PFK-1, high citrate concentration increases the inhibitory effect of ATP

c) FBPase-1, is strongly inhibited (allosterically) by AMP; when the cell’s supply of ATP is low (corresponding to high AMP), the ATP-requiring synthesis of glucose slows

d) AMP inhibits PFK-1 by binding to an allosteric site and lowering the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate fructose 6-phosphate

Which of the following statements of regulation of enzyme is correct?

Allosteric regulation of enzyme multisubunit or multiactive site shows cooperativity with the sigmoidal graph between substerate conc. v/s Activity,

a) Cell contain NADH, FADH2 and ATP, that inhibits the allosteric enzyme activity by lowering the affinity with its substate, graph shifts towards B from control

 b) A- shows low ATP, the Km for fructose 6-phosphate is relatively low, the affinity of the enzyme with its substate is relatively high

 c) Haemoglobin, Phosphofructokinase, Phosphate dehydrogenase complex, α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, these all enzymes shows characteristics of sigmoidal graph

 d) When ATP is high, Km for fructose 6-phosphate is greatly increased- this activity shown by B in the graph

 e) fructose 2,6-bisphosphate binds to its allosteric site on PFK-1, it increases the enzyme’s affinity for its substrate fructose 6-phosphate and reduces its affinity for the allosteric inhibitors ATP and citrate- shown in graph by A

 Which of the following  combination of the enzyme activity with its substate correctly shown;
