1) Determine where are the hydrophobic or hydrophilic residues concentrated? Where does your mutation fall relative to these clusters and to the inside/outside of the protein? 2)What (if any) are the primary partner(s) or binding site component(s) [such as a heme, DNA, GSH (Glutathione)? It should be obvious to you […]

2. You isolate a Gram positive alkalinophile that grows at a pH = 10. At this external pH, the intracellular pH is maintained at 7.3. Using the equation proton motive force (pmf), determine the contributions of the electrical and chemical energy components to the pmf in this bacterium.  3. You […]

1) What is a bioindicator? What ecological and biological aspects make lichens good indicators of poor air quality? In the study by Cameron et al. (2007) what were the pros and cons of using lichens to access air quality? How might these issues be addressed in future research projects? 2) […]
