Question

What order should the steps be in for this culture method?

You have a leu auxotroph strain of e. coli. You suspect that if you mutagenize this strain, you can isolate prototrophic
revertants. You irradiate these cells to generate mutants.
A) What media should you plate these mutants on to identify leu prototrophs?
B) Generate an ordered list from the following entries that would allow you to identify conditional mutants.
Step 1
Mutagenize cells
Step 2 Replica plate two plates to the media selected in part a
Step 3 Place one plate at 3ọC and one plate at 42C
Step 4 Select clones that grow at 30C and not 42C
Step 5 Plate for single colonies
