Warm Up: Escherichia coli Escherichia coli (pron.: commonly abbreviated E. coli) is a Gramnegative, rod shaped bacterium that is commonly found in the lower intestine of warmblooded organisms (endotherms). Most E. coli strains are harmless, but some serotypes can cause serious food poisoning in humans, and are occasionally responsible for product recalls due to food contamination. The harmless strains are part of the normal flora of the gut, and can benefit their hosts by producing vitamin K2, and by preventing the establishment of pathogenic bacteria within the intestine. E. coli and related bacteria constitute about 0.1% of gut flora, and fecal–oral transmission is the major route through which pathogenic strains of the bacterium cause disease. Cells are able to survive outside the body for a limited amount of time, which makes them ideal indicator organisms to test environmental samples for fecal contamination. The bacterium can also be grown easily and inexpensively in a laboratory setting, and has been intensively investigated for over 60 years. E. coli is the most widely studied prokaryotic model organism, and an important species in the fields of biotechnology and microbiology, where it has served as the host organism for the majority of work with recombinant DNA. 1 AP Biology 1.

Work Time: • Continue Comparing DNA Sequences to Understand Evolutionary Relationships with BLAST • Week Assignments • Study Guide Announcements Due Friday, March 29, 2013: Week 8 Spring Assignments, BLAST Lab, and Study Guide Review session Wednesday, March 24 at 7:50 AM in room 312. 2 BLAST Lab 3 Review Lab 1. What do the branches show? 2. Can the same trait evolve more than once? Is this likely? 3. Name four characters possessed by mammals. Answer questions in the lab. Please answer these questions on separate pieces of paper in full sentences. Let's review the questions. 4 BLAST Lab Questions Part 1 The Investigation 5 BLAST Lab Questions Part 1 6 BLAST Lab Questions Part 2 7 BLAST Lab Questions Part 2 1. What species in the BLAST result has the most similar gene sequence to the gene of interest? 2. Where is that species located on your cladogram? 3. How similar is that gene sequence? 4. What species has the next most similar gene sequence to the gene of interest? 5. What other data could be collected from the fossil specimen to help properly identify its evolutionary history? Based on what you have learned from the sequence analysis and what you know from the structure, decide where the new fossil species belongs on the cladogram with the other organisms. Redraw the cladogram you created before. 8 Chapter 25 Notes 9 Chapter 25 Notes 10 11 Chapter 25 Notes Chapter 25 Notes 12 Chapter 25 Notes 13 Chapter 25 Notes 14 Chapter 25 Notes 15 Chapter 25 Notes III.
