The R group for serine is -CH2-OH. In the ionized form, serine has the structural formula ________.

Assume that a base-pair substitution mutation converts a DNA triplet (AAT) to another DNA triplet (AAA). A second mutation now changes the AAA triplet to the GAA triplet. (UUA and CUU code for leucine and UUU codes for phenylalanine.) This second mutation is an example of a(n):

At a pH < 5, the ionized form for alanine (pI = 6) will have ________.

PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is an excellent method of generating copies of target DNA. If a single piece of double stranded DNA (dsDNA) is put into a PCR machine, how many dsDNA segments will there be after 3 rounds? 

Upon transposing to a new site, transposable elements:

Show your work and/or provide an explanation for how you got your answer to Question 2, above. Include dimensional analysis with correct sig figs where appropriate, in the following format: Example:  1.25 mol A   x   (2 mol B)/(5 mol A)   =  0.500 mol B

All of the following are requirements of a bacterial cloning vector EXCEPT:
