Explain why you used a LB/ampicillin plate and a LB/ampicillin/arabinose plate to test the +pGLO bacteria. (4 pts) The LB/ ampicillin plate was used to show that the +pGLO bacteria had taken up the plasmid and to make sure only the +pGLO bacteria were growing. Bacteria without ampicillin resistance would not be able to grow. The LB/Ampicillin/arabinose tested that the +pGLO bacteria had taken up the plasmid and that they could produce the GFP protein which allowed them to fluoresce. The arabinose is present, which makes the araC gene activate the GFP gene to make the GFP protein, which fluoresces. 21.

What does this mean in terms of your laboratory success? Lab was not successful. The transformed yield was less than 50% of expected. The calculated efficiency (65.5 transformants/µg) is below the predicted limits (200 – 3000 transformants/µg) of efficiency for this protocol. 4.1.3: Protein Purification 27. In 4.1.3, we built a sample protein molecule. What are the four rules that designate how a protein folds? (6 pts) 1. Hydrophobic and nonpolar amino acids = inside 2. Hydrophilic and polar amino acids = outside 3. Charged amino acids (basic = positive, acidic = negative) are outside and form salt bridge bonds with each other to neutralize charges 4. Cysteine sidechains form a covalent disulfide bonds to stabilize the protein. 28. Which of the following contributes to a proteins’ function? (2 pts) A. Properties of amino acids that make up the protein B. Order of amino acids C. Tertiary structure of the protein D. A and B only E. All of the above 29.

During the final stages of hydrophobic interaction chromatography different buffer solutions were used with different salt concentrations. Why are the different buffers used to purify the GFP? (2 pts) A. The buffer solution causes the hydrophobic side chains to move and become attracted to the ions in the buffer. B. The buffer solution causes the hydrophobic side chains to move and become attracted the hydrophilic matrix in the HI column. C. The buffer solution causes the hydrophobic side chains to move and become attracted to the hydrophobic matrix in the HI column. D. The buffer solution causes the hydrophobic side chains to move and become attracted to the proteins in the buffer. 32. Using the protein diagram below, which color (white or dark) do you think are the hydrophobic amino acids? Why? (2 pts) Black - hydrophobic amino acids and proteins ‘hide’ on the inside 33. How does amino acid structure relate to the overall shape of a protein? (2 pts) A. The shape of the protein determines its function B. The sequence of amino acids determines the shape of the protein C. The hydrophobicity of each amino acid determines the shape of the protein D. Proteins are made of nucleic acids, so the amino acid shape does not affect the protein 34. Why does a salt buffer cause hydrophobic amino acids, like the ones in GFP, to push to the outside of a protein and bind to a chromatography column? (2 pts) A. The hydrophilic amino acids in GFP push to the inside of the column to be washed out B. The hydrophobic amino acids in GFP push to the inside of the column to be washed out C. The hydrophilic amino acids in GFP push to the outside of the protein and bind to the column, while the hydrophobic proteins can be washed out of the column D. The hydrophobic amino acids in GFP push to the outside of the protein and bind to the column, while the less hydrophobic proteins can be washed out of the column 35.

A single protein was denatured and electrophoresed. After visualization, 4 bands were noticed. Two were small and two were large. What can you conclude from these results? (2 pts) Answer: A – denaturing with SDS makes sure the proteins no longer A. Four polypeptides made up the protein have secondary, tertiary or quaternary structure. If it was a single B. The protein could be an enzyme protein and you see 4 bands, you can deduce that the single protein was made of four subunits – and that is what you are seeing on the C. The larger peptides traveled further than the smaller peptides gel. (B makes no sense as you can’t determine what the protein D. Restriction enzymes were used to create the fragments 39. Why is SDS used before protein electrophoresis? (2 pts) SDS coats the protein in a negative charge and unfolds the protein into its primary structure does just from the gel; C is wrong, smaller fragments travel faster than larger fragments and D is also incorrect – restriction enzymes do not cut protein). 40. How does protein electrophoresis differ from DNA electrophoresis? (Choose all correct statements) (2 pts) A. The DNA molecules are negatively charged, while the protein molecules during electrophoresis are positive B. DNA electrophoresis is sorted in agar, while the protein electrophoresis is sorted with polyacrylamide gel C. DNA fragments are sorted by size, while protein fragments are sorted by amino acids D. DNA fragments are sorted by charge, while protein fragments are sorted by amino acids 41. With the help of your partner, you performed an SDS-PAGE.

(2 pts) Any number between 40-45 (1.5) – kilodaltons/kD/kDa (.5) 4.1.5: Protein Manufacturing 43. Protein production of insulin has been perfected so that it’s just like following a recipe. What do you think could have been three problems researchers had to overcome in order to perfect the technique? (2 pts) Suggested answers could be: finding the appropriate restriction enzymes, finding the best temperature for heat shocking or bacterial growth, discovering ways of separating insulin (or other protein), discovering ways of transforming bacteria or finding the best bacteria for cloning. 44. One of the major goals of this unit was to think about the overall production and purification of a protein. First, give the order of the steps necessary to produce and purify GFP. Second, give the importance of that step relating to the goal of having a tube of pure protein product. Process SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis Make recombinant DNA Step # 4 1 Hydrophobic 3 Interaction Chromatography (HIC) Bacterial Transformation 2 Importance of step in the process of obtaining pure protein product. This step simply verifies that your HIC fraction contains pure protein product. If you are going to use this protein for commercial use or further research, you will want to make sure you have pure product. The SDS denatures the proteins and coats them with negative charges. The PAGE is a very tight matrix that will separate small molecules. This step is important because you are making the plasmid with the gene of interest in it. This plasmid is what will be inserted into the bacteria to produce the protein you want. The plasmid helps the cell know what to do with the gene (i.e. promoters/terminators) and has genes that help select for the cells that have taken in the new gene (i.e. GFP/amp resistance) In this step, you are isolating just the protein that you want. The protein is trapped in the cell (with all of the other proteins the cell is making). You have to find a way to isolate the protein of interest from the rest of the cell. In our case, the HIC step “grabs” the GFP because of the hydrophobic nature of the protein. We can release the protein from the column by changing the salt content and washing the protein from the column. In this step, you are adding the recombinant plasmid to the bacteria. Some bacteria will take in the new plasmid and start producing the new protein. 45. Which step is NOT specifically included in the steps above? Explain what occurs during the “missing” step.
