Application

Application Comment Organism
additional information protocol for undergraduate molecular biology and biochemistry laboratory courses spanning two semesters that is organized around the LdhA gene from the yogurt-fermenting bacterium Lactobacillus bulgaricus, using commercially available yogurt. Curriculum starts with cloning the LdhA gene into a prokaryotic expression vector, followed by mRNA isolation and characterization of recombinant gene expression levels using RT-PCR. The biochemistry module begins with overexpression of the cloned LdhA gene and guides students through the process of affinity purification, biochemical characterization of the purified LdhA protein, and analysis of enzyme kinetics using various substrates and an inhibitor, concluding with a guided inquiry investigation of structure-function relationships in the three-dimensional structure of LdhA using molecular visualization software Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus
