We determined that the UV light treatment was the most potent treatment of mutagenesis and also the most effective in inducing mutations, followed by the Tn5 and the EMS was the least potent and effective treatment. Introduction A culture of E.coli K12, KL14 was used to carry out the experiment on. The advantage of using E.coli cells to experiment on is that they are haploid organisms and contain a single set of chromosomes so if a mutation was to occur, the bacterial cell will express it as…

test was positive, meaning K. pneumoniae produces urease to break down urea. An inoculation onto Kligler’s iron agar determines if an organism can ferment glucose and lactose, it also detects the production of hydrogen sulfide from the breakdown of cysteine. Our Kligler’s iron agar showed acid with gas production, meaning K. pneumoniae fermented both glucose and lactose. The hydrogen sulfide production was negative. A Litmus Milk test is done to determine whether the organism can ferment…

was created specific for apoptosis of polar cells. Those cells are destined to die during the early development of Drosophila melanogaster. This can be done by proteolytic cleavage of essential proteins by Caspases, a group of aspartate-specific cysteine (Khammari, 2009). There are total 7 genes that code for Drosophila melanogaster. Caspases normally are inactivation mode by bounding to inhibitors of apoptosis (IAP). As soon as apoptotic stimuli are detected, IAPs will bind to its antagonists.…
