Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) is a powerful technique for separating cells according to their content of particular molecules. For example, a fluorescence-labeled antibody specific for a cell-surface protein can be used to detect cells containing such a molecule. Suppose that you want to isolate cells that possess a receptor enabling them to detect bacter ial degradation products. However, you do not yet have an antibody directed against this receptor. Which fluorescence-labeled molecule would you prepare to identify such cells?

E)You isolate a bacterium from a diseased plant. This bacterium makes a pigment that fluoresces under UV light. You set about to study the regulation of this fluorescent pigment. After careful analysis, you determine that the wildtype strain has the following characteristics: • It contains an operon that produces a blue fluorescent protein, BFP • The genes for BFP are under the control of a regulatory protein, called RegB • BFP synthesis is induced by a small signal molecule, acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) 1) Draw the likely positions for RNA polymerase (RNAP), AHL, and the RegB protein if the bfp operon is under positive control RNAP AHL RegB with AHL present: Activator binding site promoter bfp genes without AHL Activator binding site promoter bfp genes 1. In which case does transcription occur and why? 2. In this example AHL is a(n) __________. (word bank is part A) 3. This process of regulation is referred to as __________. (word bank is part A) 4. RegB is a(n) __________ protein. (word bank is part A) If unable to draw the binding above describe here:

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) can activate multiple signaling pathways. The PI3 kinase pathway is diagrammed below: You express green fluorescently labeled Akt (GFP-Akt) in cells. Under which of the following conditions would you expect to see fluorescence in the cytoplasm? Choose all that apply Bad mutant that cannot be phosphorylated; with ligand Wild-type cell; with ligand Gain of function PI3K mutant; no ligand Akt mutant missing the PH domain; with ligand Loss of function PI3K mutant; with ligand Receptor with tyrosines (Y) mutated to phenylalanine (F), with ligand
