In case of special transduction, the transductor phage can transfer only certain chromosomal markers.

For example: Lambdoidal-phague and E. coli system.

Generalized transduction differs from specialized transduction in that generalized transduction?

GENERALIZED TRANSDUCTION- Is the type of transduction in which a fragment of DNA from the degraded chromosome of an infected bacteria cell is accidentally incorporated into a new phage particle during viral replication and thereby transfered to another bacterial cell. specialized- is the type in which the bacterial DNA transduced is limited to one or a few genes lying adjacent to a pro-phage that are accidentally included when the phage is excised from the bacterial chromosome.

In what part of the eye does transduction occur?

Transduction occurs in the retina of the eye. The retina contains specialized cells called photoreceptors (rods and cones) that convert light signals into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve for visual processing.

It is called Transduction.


What is the only sense that has no transduction?

None as all comunication in cells using transduction, endocrine system use hormone, nerve system uses nerve impulse which is not involve in transduction but at the synapse neurotransmitter is produced which involve in transduction. Noted that all senses such as the eye uses nerve system and endocrine system.


What is abortive transduction?

Abortive transduction occurs when a bacteriophage injects its genetic material into a bacterial cell, but the viral DNA fails to replicate and instead integrates into the host bacterial genome. This can result in a mixed bacterial population with some cells acquiring new genetic traits from the phage.


How can specialized transduction contribute to the transfer of antibiotic resistance genes in a bacterial population?

Specialized transduction involves the transfer of a specific set of bacterial genes by a temperate bacteriophage during its lysogenic cycle. If the bacteriophage integrates into the bacterial chromosome near antibiotic resistance genes, they can be co-transferred to other bacteria upon phage infection. This process can facilitate the spread of antibiotic resistance genes within a bacterial population.


What is the use of chloroform in p1 transduction?

Chloroform is used in P1 transduction to help release phages from the donor bacterial cells by disrupting the cell membrane. It facilitates the transfer of genetic material from the donor to recipient cells during the transduction process.

What does a protein phosphatase actually do to end a signal transduction?

Protein phosphates turn off signal transduction pathways by removing the phosphate groups from the protein kinase, making them reusable and making the kinase inscribe stopping the signal transduction pathway.
