Several temperature-sensitive mutant strains of E. coli displaythe following characteristics. Predict what enzyme or function isbeing affected by each mutation. Supercoiled strands remain after replication, which is never completed.
Bacterial Genomics
The study of the morphological, physiological, and evolutionary aspects of the bacterial genome is referred to as bacterial genomics. This subdisciplinary field aids in understanding how genes are assembled into genomes. Further, bacterial or microbial genomics has helped researchers in understanding the pathogenicity of bacteria and other microbes.
Transformation Experiment in Bacteria
In the discovery of genetic material, the experiment conducted by Frederick Griffith on Streptococcus pneumonia proved to be a stepping stone.
Plasmids and Vectors
The DNA molecule that exists in a circular shape and is smaller in size which is capable of its replication is called Plasmids. In other words, it is called extra-chromosomal plasmid DNA. Vectors are the molecule which is capable of carrying genetic material which can be transferred into another cell and further carry out replication and expression. Plasmids can act as vectors.

The replication process occurs during the S-phase of the interphase of the cell cycle. DNA replication is a process by which a new strand of DNA is synthesized using the existing DNA strand as the template.
Many factors and replication machinery are involved in the process of replication. The DNA strand is synthesized in the direction of 5' to 3' and the synthesis occurs in the nucleus.
