DNA replication
The enzyme used to add base pairs to the exposed strand
the product of transcription
What is RNA?
What is a protein?
change in a nucleotide sequence in DNA
What is a mutation?
paired chromatids with genetically identical info held together by a centromere
What are sister chromatids?
The product formed from DNA replication
What is 2DNA
the location of transcription
What is the nucleus?
has anticodon that attaches to the codon on the mRNA
What is tRNA?
mutation that causes NO change in the protein product
What is a silent mutation?
process where the cell is normally metabolizing and cell replicates its DNA
enzyme used to form covalent bonds between DNA segments
What is ligase?
the phase where RNA polymerase adds nucleotides to DNA
What is elongation?
brings the mRNA and tRNA together
What is the ribosome?
causes mutations
What are mutagens?
phase of mitosis where sister chromatids move to opposite poles of the cell
What is anaphase?
the location
the phase where RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region of the DNA strand
What is initiation?
location of translation
What is the cytoplasm?
does not produce disease symptoms but virus remains in host cell
What is a latent viral infection?
loose chromosomes that are made up of DNA and protein
What is chromatin?
The term used to describe that 50% of DNA molecule is retained from parent strand and 50% is new nucleotides
What is semiconservative?
the phase where RNA polymerase binds to the terminator region and releases
What is termination?
the bond formed when amino acids attach together in the ribosome
enzyme used in HIV that converts RNA to DNA
What is reverse transcriptase?
phase in mitosis where chromosomes condense
What is prophase?
