EMG 9 and EMG 26 contain strain _lac-_(I- Z+ Y+) and strain _lac -_ (I+ Z- Y-)respectively.Three genes huddled together on the chromosome are required for two strains of _E.coli_ to utilize lactose.Consisting of three genes‚ namely‚ _lacZ_‚ _lacY_ and _lacA_‚ the _lac_ operon orderly handles these genes to code specific enzymes necessary for the metabolism of lactose. The genes _lacZ_‚ _lacY_ and _lacI_ would code for beta-galactosidase‚ galactosidase permease

digestive enzyme found in the intestines of mammals. Beta-galactosidase is an enzyme that initiates the breakdown of the substrate lactose. Lactose is a disaccharide sugar found in milk. It is composed of two rings. The rings contain 5 carbon atoms and an oxygen atom. Attached to the carbon atoms are a hydrogen atom and an OH group or another carbon. The rings are bound together by an oxygen bridge. This bridge can be broken when the enzyme Beta-galactosidase binds to lactose and a water molecule

problem we are studying was to determine the cellular damage of various concentrations of propanol‚ ethanol‚ methanol‚ NaCL‚ and sodium dodecyl sulfate henceforth known as SDS on Beta vulgaris to ultimately distinguish the ability of each solution to permeate the membrane of the Beta vulgaris. • Beta vulgaris contains a beta cyanin which is a water-soluble red-pigment‚ which remains in a healthy vacuole surrounded by the tonoplast membrane. When we damage the tonoplast membrane and thus disrupt the
