Translation
Where does translation take place?
the cytoplasm at a ribosome?
Created high resolution photos of DNA diffraction
Who is Rosalind Franklin?
Watson and Crick used this term to describe the shape of DNA.
What is a double helix?
This is what results from copying one molecule of DNA
What are two molecules of DNA?
What is the first step in Transcription
What is RNA polymerase binds to specific sequence of DNA that acts as a signal to start transcription?
What is the bond called that holds two amino acids together?
Peptide bond?
This scientist formed a major rule about the nucleotide base pairings of DNA
Who is Erwin Chargaff
The sugars and the phosphates.
What is the "backbone of a DNA molecule"?
This is the first step in the replication of one DNA molecule.
What is the unwinding of DNA?
What replaces T in the RNA sequence
What is U
This is made in translation.
What is a protein?
This scientist found a substance called "nuclein"
Who is Mieschler?
The type of bond that holds bases together in the double helix.
What is a hydrogen bond?
The enzyme that is used to make a copy of a DNA molecule.
What is DNA polymerase?
What happens in transcription?
When DNA makes mRNA
The end product of translation
What is an amino acid chain or protein chain?
Credited for discovering DNA
Who are Watson and Crick?
He is credited with the discovery that the amount of G's was roughly equal to the amount of C's (and A's with T's) in several samples of DNA.
Who is Erwin Chargaff?
This is what you call a "G" binding with a "C" or an "A" binding with a "T".
What is a base pair?
Where does transcription take place?
What is a nucleus?
Type of RNA that "brings" amino acids to the ribosome
What is tRNA?
Conducted the blender experiment
Who are Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase?
A (nitrogenous) base, a sugar, and a phosphate.
What are the 3 parts of a nucleotide?
The proteins which the DNA double helix winds around so that DNA can become "supercoiled".
What are histones?
How does RNA polymerase know where to start and stop making an RNA copy of DNA?
What is RNA polymerase will only bind to regions of DNA called Promoters?
