Construction Of A Thif Genetic Disruption In Bacillus Subtilis, Kathleen Bradley, Christine Pybus, Ronald Yasbin, Eduardo Robleto
Construction Of A Thif Genetic Disruption In Bacillus Subtilis, Kathleen Bradley, Christine Pybus, Ronald Yasbin, Eduardo Robleto
Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP)
The goal of our research is to determine whether the level of transcription of a gene is correlated with the level of mutation in that gene. One factor involved in the mutability of a transcribed gene is the ability of the single stranded DNA to form secondary stem loop structures (SLS), in the wake of the transcription bubble, that contain unpaired mutable bases. We are interested in correlating the levels of mutation with transcription in the thiF gene, which is predicted by bioinformatic analysis to be highly mutable. To achieve this goal, Kathleen will first construct a non-polar thiF genetic …
