  1. 5. A type of DNA replication used to replicate the F factor
  2. 7. encodes genes needed for conjugation, including the T4SS
  3. 9. A mutation that results in a change in the amino acid sequence
  4. 11. Transfer of DNA between bacteria requiring direct cell contact
  5. 12. How we determine if a substance is carcinogenic/mutagenic
  6. 13. Has F factor integrated into the chromosome
  7. 14. Region on F factor that allows it to be incorporated in the host chromosome

  1. 1. Cytosine to adenine mutation
  2. 2. A mutation that does not cause a change in the amino acid sequence
  3. 3. Protein complex containing the relaxase and accessory proteins that bind to the F factor at the origin of replication
  4. 4. The extension of an F+ cell that makes contact with an F- cell
  5. 6. Guides the F factor DNA to the T4SS
  6. 7. Cytosine to thymine mutation
  7. 8. The F factor is an example
  8. 10. the experiment that showed direct cell to cell contact was needed for DNA transfer between bacterial strains
