Lab 7: Arabidopsis development/Bacterial transformation
1. The plant we will work with in lab this week is called ________________________. 2. Any change in the DNA sequence of an organism is called a ________________________. 3. In the plant experiments, we will be working with a reporter gene called ________________________. 4. When this gene is expressed it can cleave a substrate to produce the color ________________________. 5. In order to see the color better, you will extract the green chlorophyll with ________________________. 6. The part of a gene that controls where and when it is expressed (is on or off) is called the ________________________. 7. A ________________________ is a protein that controls the expression of many other genes. 8. Another name for a plant hair is ________________________. 9. "Transparent testa, glabra" means ________________________. 10. We will be extracting ________________________ pigment to measure its absorbance spectrum. 11. A relatively small circular piece of DNA is called a ________________________. 12. Often these small circular pieces of DNA encode for genes that confer resistance to ________________________. 13. If another piece of DNA is spliced into one of these small circular pieces of DNA, it is said to be ________________________. 14. When one of these small circular pieces of DNA enters a bacterial cell, the cell is said to be ________________________. 15. The bacterium we will use in lab this week is called ________________________.
