price‚ and high degree of reduction have made glycerol a highly attractive and exploited carbon source for the production of fuels and reduced chemicals. Here we report the quantitative analysis of the fermentative metabolism of glycerol in Escherichia coli through the use of kinetic modeling and metabolic control analysis (MCA) to gain a better understanding of glycerol fermentation and identify key targets for genetic manipulation that could enhance product synthesis. The kinetics of glycerol fermentation

DNA extraction lab 1. A number of steps are required to isolate DNA from cellular content. Describe what happens at each step‚ and why it acts to separate the parts of the cell. The steps include a) breaking cell open to release the DNA; b) separating the DNA from cellar materials and proteins; c) using alcohol to precipitate the DNA; d) cleaning the DNA; e) confirming the presence of the DNA. a) Breaking cell open to release the DNA: the cells are separated from each other by physical means such

Strawberry DNA Extraction Donovan Roberts Mrs. Caudill Honors Biology 3/7/11 Introduction The structure of DNA is made of nitrogenous bases‚ phosphate groups‚ and sugars. These three parts of DNA form hydrogen bonds and create a right-handed double helix. The location of DNA in a eukaryotic cell is found within the nucleus‚ bound to proteins. DNA can be extracted from within the cell. They are several steps you must take to retrieve DNA from within the cell. When extracting DNA cells can be

antibiotic-resistance plasmids to transform Escherichia coli. Materials For this lab you will need the following: LB Agar Petri dishes Beakers Test tubes CaCl2 solution Sensitive E. coli (-ampR) amp plasmids ampicillin -amp cells Water bath to heat shock cells A freezer to incubate cells Process Step 1: Wash hands and sanitize lab setting. This will prevent anything reacting with a substance that could have been present when it shouldn’t have been. Step 2: Ampicillin sensitive E. coli cells

The Escherichia Coli bacterium was discovered in 1885 by bacteriologist Theodor Escherich. He found the bacteria in the human colon and showed that some strains of Escherichia Coli were responsible for infant diarrhea and gastroenteritis. The Escherichia Coli was originally named Bacterium Coli. The name was changed to honor Theodor Escherich. E coli are normally harmless and are part of the normal flora found in the lower intestines of humans and healthy cattle. Some E. coli serotypes are known

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PLASMID AND CHROMOSOMAL DNA IN BACTERIA. Eukaryotes have two or more chromosomes‚ prokaryotes such as bacteria possess a single chromosome composed of double-stranded DNA in a loop. DNA is located in the nucleoid of the cell and is not associated with protein A plasmid is an extra-chromosomal DNA molecule separate from the chromosomal DNA which is capable of replicating independently of the chromosomal DNA. Plasmids usually occur naturally in bacteria. A chromosome
