Computer programmers, working with molecular geneticists, have developed computer programs that can identify genes within long stretches of DNA sequences. Imagine that you are working with a computer programmer on such a project. On the basis of what you know about the process of transcription, what sequences should be used to identify the beginning and end of a prokaryotic gene with the use of this computer program? Select all that apply.

(A) Sequences with close similarity to the -35 and -10 sequences upstream of start site.
(B) A stop codon indicates the last transcribed nucleotide.
(C) The start codon (AUG) indicates the first transcribed base.
(D) Sequences with close similarity to the -25 TATA box are found near the beginning of a gene.
(E) Short, inverted repeats followed by at least seven T nucleotides indicating potential intrinsic termination sites.
(F) At least five inverted repeats indicate the last transcribed nucleotide that indicates intrinsic termination site.
(G) Sequences with 10 to 20 repeats of A and T nucleotides mark the beginning of most genes.

Ms. w, a 21-year-old woman, came into a clinic after suffering a deep laceration on her foot while walking barefoot around her yard. the wound was cleaned, sutured, and bandaged, and she was released to return home after receiving tetanus antitoxoid. within 72 hours, the wound area was red and swollen, the suture line was dark in color, and it was accompanied by severe throbbing pain. ms. w had a high fever, her heart felt like it was racing, and she was finding it hard to concentraten even on simple tasks. she returned to the clinic and was immediately taken to the hospital. following lab tests, a diagnosis of acute necrotizing fasciitis was made. discussion questions 1. explain why ms. w. received a tetanus antitoxoid before leaving the hospital. (see chapters 3 and 4, infection and passive immunity.) 2. explain how acute necrotizing fasciitis developed in this case and the pathophysiology involved. (see acute necrotizing fasciitis.) 3. what is the potential outcome for ms. w if antibiotic drugs do not reduce the infection quickly?
