Using the times for transfer of each maker, draw a unified chromosome map of E. coli, showing the order and relative distances between these markers.What is the total length of the E. coli chromosome, in transfer minutes?
1. In order to determine the overall chromosome map for E. coli, three Hfr strains (# 1, 2, & 3) were obtained from F+ ancestors. The start times of transfer during conjugation matings with Fstrains carrying auxotrophic, resistance, and fermentation markers were determined for each Hfr strain, as listed. A. Using the times for transfer […]
