Which of the following E. coli strains with the lac genotypes will synthesize beta-galactosidase in the presence of lactose?
Note: Superscript wouldn't work in the answers, so for example, lacIs means lacIs(superrepressor of lacI)
lacIâ lacPâ lacOâ lacZâ lacYâ
lacIs lacP+ lacO+ lacZ+ lacYâ / lacI+ lacP+ lacO+ lacZâ lacY+
lacIs lacPâ lacO+ lacZâ lacY+ / lacI+ lacP+ lacO+ lacZ+ lacY+
lacIâ lacPâ lacO+ lacZ+ lacY+
lacI+ lacP+ lacO+ lacZ+ lacY+

Some mutations in the trp 5' UTR region increase termination by the attenuator. An example of a mutation that may have this effect is a
Choose the best answer!
mutation that changes the bases in region 3 of the 5' UTR, such that they no longer pair with region 2 or 4.
deletion of the two tryptophan codons in the 5' UTR leader peptide.
deletion in region 2 in the 5' UTR that prevents it from pairing with region 3.

Several examples of antisense RNA regulating translation in bacterial cells have been discovered. If you wanted to design a construct to artificially control translation of a bacterial gene with antisense RNA, what type of sequences should the antisense RNA contain?
A sequence complementary to the operator of an operon.
A sequence complementary to a 5' UTR.
A sequence complementary to the Shine-Dalgarno site of the mRNA.
The first and second choices are correct.
The second and third choices are correct.

Which of the following correctly describes the function of microRNAs?
Choose the best answer.
MicroRNAs are encoded by genes in the genome of an organism.
MicroRNAs form mRNA which encodes a protein repressor for another gene.
MicroRNAs encode a mRNA that base pairs with itself, forming double stranded RNA.
MicroRNAs are cut into small pieces, then bound by the complex of proteins called RISC to repress the translation of other mRNAs in the cell.
The first and second answers are correct.
The first, third, and fourth answers are correct.
The third and fourth answers are correct.
