These video based exercises are designed to test your working knowledge of the different types of nutrient transport systems operating in E. coli. They address material presented in Nutrient Uptake Process section of the E.coli Student Portal. Supporting information can also be obtained from the EcoCyc web site.

Here are three ways to review the video materials :

  1. Organize your thoughts and compose a short (100-150 word) paragraph describing the key points of the process depicted in the assigned video(s).
  2. Describe to one of your colleagues the salient features depicted in the assigned video(s).
  3. Proceed on your own to review the materials covered by the videos.
