You are carrying out experiments to study transcription termination in an E coli gene. You sequence the 3-end of the gene and get the following results: 11eb5b1b_c90f_26d5_a06e_bb43f5f50574_SM1034_00 You then create mutant genes with this sequence changed to the following (top, or nontemplate strand, 53): 11eb5b1b_c90f_26d6_a06e_85accd89dfd2_SM1034_00 You put each of the mutant genes into an assay that measures termination and get the following results: 11eb5b1b_c90f_26d7_a06e_57dafd4ed46b_SM1034_00 a. Draw the structure of the RNA molecule that results from transcription of the wild-type sequence above. b. Explain these experimental results as completely as possible.

Exercise 3

You are carrying out experiments to study transcription termination in an E coli gene. You sequence the 3-end of the gene and get the following results:

You then create mutant genes with this sequence changed to the following (top, or nontemplate strand, 53):

You put each of the mutant genes into an assay that measures termination and get the following results:

a. Draw the structure of the RNA molecule that results from transcription of the wild-type sequence above.
b. Explain these experimental results as completely as possible.
