Тезаурус:
- The two reactions of the repressor protein, with the operator region of the chromosome and with the inducing galactoside molecules, are non-covalent, and therefore readily reversible, so that synthesis can be switched on and off repeatedly.
- However, the genes brought in by a plasmid do not usually become a permanent part of the bacterium's own chromosome.
- For the E. coli chromosome has both "hot spots", where mutations are more frequent than average, and stable zones where they are less frequent.
- Yet all female mammals are chimaeras; half the cells have one X chromosome active, and in the other half the other X chromosome is active.
- When the fertility genes (about 30) reside in E. coli 's chromosome, parts of the adjacent chromosomal DNA are often transferred with them during conjugation.
- I started by looking at the chromosome patterns, of course - remember the men who are born with an extra Y chromosome, who show aggressive behavior and antisocial tendencies.
- They differ from ordinary genes in that they can move from one site to another in the chromosome.
- But if the terminal repeats explain how wandering members of the Alu family might get into a chromosome, what can explain how they came to be wandering in the first place?
- If the explanation of affinity is true, then it is possible that spermatozoa produced by a male hybrid would contain only the paternal chromosomes, and will therefore carry the Y sex chromosome, a donkey-Y in male mules and a horse-Y in male hinnies.
- Moreover, the technology is available to transpose that part of the chromosome into a related species which will then produce offspring bearing the particular characteristic.
- As an example, a plasmid known as R100 (left) comprises 90 000 base pairs of DNA (compared with the 4 million base pairs of the chromosome) and has genes which make its host cell fertile and resistant to five antibacterial substances.
- During conjugation, DNA is passed from one bacterium to another; this DNA may be the plasmid which caused the conjugation, or the bacterial chromosome itself, or both.
- Inactivation of the X chromosome is random so that the early embryo is made up of a mixture of cells in which one or other of the X chromosomes is inactivated.
