10 Questions

The response regulator, once phosphorylated, binds to the activator to turn transcription on.

True

Porins in Gram-negative bacteria regulate the synthesis of histidine kinases.

False

Phosphatase activity removes phosphate from the response regulator at a faster rate than kinase activity.

False

OmpC is synthesized more in bacterial cells when there is low solute concentration.

False

NRII becomes dephosphorylated when excess ammonia is present in the environment.

True

Phosphorylation of NRI by PII leads to the binding of NRI to the activator binding site.

True

The dual enzymatic activity of NRII is controlled by the response regulator.

False

Ammonia limitation results in the binding of PII to UMP.

True

In the absence of ammonia, nitrogen fixation is turned off.

False

The Two-Component Regulatory Systems in Bacteria involve sensor kinase and effector kinase.

False

Learn about the regulation of the maltose operon in bacteria, including the role of activator proteins, promoters, and inducers. Explore how enzymes needed for the production of maltose are activated in the presence of maltose in the culture media.
