History of DNA
First major contributor to DNA research
What is Friedrich Miescher
Part of the cell cycle where DNA replicates
What is interphase
Mutations definition
What is errors made in DNA sequence that are inherited
Name three big uses of genetic engineering
What is disease cures, better/healthier food/crops, edit animal gene codes, edit human DNA to rid negative genes (any three)
Restriction enzyme with sticky end looks like
What is overhanging end
They proposed the exact 3d structure of the DNA double helix
Who is James Watson and Francis Crick
Length of leading strand
What is 5 inches
Segment of DNA that has reversed it's orientation in the chromosome
What is Inversion
Name 2 big uses of genetic engineering specifically on crops
What is increase certain nutrients, and protect from pests
Add methyl group to one of the neucleotides in the recognition
Revealed Double Helix structure of DNA
Who is Rosalind Franklin
Role of semi-conservative strands
What is separate and act as templates for new strands
At a specific base pair in the genome, a mutation happens
What is Point Mutation
Cuts certain parts of genes out of DNA
What is CRISPR/CAS9
Small circular pieces of DNA in bacteria that replicate independently of chromosomal DNA
What is Plasmids
Did the Blender experiment
Who is Martha Chase and Alfred Hershey
Molecule breaks every ten bases and new bases synthesize in gaps
What is Dispersive
A change in the base sequence causes stop codon to replace an amino acid codon, only part of protein produced
What is Missense Mutation
4 Types of genetic engineering
What is selection, mutagenesis, conjugation, and protoplast fusion
Creates phosphodiester bonds between nucleotides
What is DNA ligase
Discovered Nucleic Acids were made from 5 different sub units
Who is Albrecht Kossel
Speed of DNA replication
What is 749 nucleotides/second
Segments of DNA that constantly move from one location to another
What is Transposable elements
Meaning of CRISPR
What is C: Clustered R: Regularly I: Interspaced S: Short P: Palindromic R: Repeats
Where was restriction endzymes originally found and what were they used for
Where is bacteria and what is to fight of viruses
