|
What has to happen as the first step of Conjugation?
|
the F factor (f plasmid) has to multiply and goes over first.
|
|
|
what is the connection between the two cells called?
|
the pillus
|
|
|
Which method of transferring DNA gets the most DNA across?
|
CONJUGATION
|
|
|
what is the ratio of F plasmids that cross the pillus into the new cell?
|
10 x -6....aka, one in a million.
|
|
|
what is the first step of CONjuGATION involving an Hfr cell?
|
The F plamid integrates into chromosome by recombination
|
|
|
what does HfR stand for?
|
High frequency of Recombination
|
|
|
How is an Hfr cell created?
|
when an F+ cell integrates its F plamid into its chromosome. Hfr cells donate a partial copy of their DNA and a portion of the F plasmid to a recipient, which is rendered a recombinant cell but remains F-.
