Stuff
The specific part of interphase when DNA Replication occurs.
What is S phase?
An enzyme that relaxes DNA to prevent super coiling.
What is a topoisomerase?
An enzyme that adds matching bases to DNA based on where the RNA primers have been places.
What is DNA Polymerase III?
The strand of DNA that is built in sections and goes away from the "fork".
What is the lagging strand?
The organelle in which DNA Replication occurs.
What is the nucleus?
An enzyme that "unzips" DNA.
What is helicase?
An enzyme that replaces RNA primers with DNA Nucleotides. (Mr. Howard's brother)
What is DNA Polymerase I?
The purpose of DNA Replication (Why DNA Replication is necessary).
Proteins that hold back nitrogenous bases from snapping back to their matching bases/partners.
What are Single Strand Binding Proteins?
Enzymes that repair cracks in the sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA.
What are ligase? (The frog looking things)
The definition of anti-parallel.
What is one side/backbone of the DNA goes up, and the other side goes down? Or, one side moves from 5' to 3' and the other moves form 3' to 5'.
A kind of protein whose names end in -ase.
What are enzymes?
An enzyme that latches onto exposed DNA to lay RNA primers.
Fragments of DNA that are built discontinuously (in sections)
What are Okazaki Fragments?
Numbers that are used to tell/show which way the backbone of a DNA strand is running. (5' 3')
What are prime ends?
Temporary placeholders that tell the DNA polymerase (III) where to start.
What are RNA primers?
The strand of DNA that is built continuously and goes towards the "fork".
What is the leading strand?
The definition of Replication Bubble.
What is the location of multiple replication forks during DNA Replication?
The definition of Replication Fork.
What is the division of the original DNA strand and where DNA replication takes place?
