Many antibiotics work by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis. investigators have isolated a promising new compound and wish to determine its mechanism of action. using a cell-free translation system similar to the ones originally used to deduce the genetic code, the researchers incubate their drug with the synthetic polynucleotide 5’-aug. in the absence of the drug, this polynucleotide directs the synthesis of the peptide met–phe–phe–phe. when the drug is added, only the peptide met–phe is produced. based on this observation, which is most likely the mechanism of action of this potential new antibiotic?

Female luna moths (actias luna) attract males by emitting chemical signals that spread through the air. a male hundreds of meters away can detect these molecules and fly toward their source. the sensory organs responsible for this behavior are the comblike antennae visible in the photograph shown here. each filament of an antenna is equipped with thousands of receptor cells that detect the sex attractant. based on what you learned in this chapter, propose a hypothesis to account for the ability of the male moth to detect a specific molecule in the presence of many other molecules in the air. what predictions does your hypothesis make? design an experiment to test one of these predictions.
