DNA Replication
The product of DNA replication.
What is a newly synthesized strand of DNA that is complementary and antiparallel to its template strand?
The three processes of bacterial transcription.
What is initiation, elongation, and termination?
The four processes of translation.
What is tRNA charging, initiation, elongation, and termination.
Start codon
What is AUG?
Replication takes place in this direction.
What is the 5' to 3' direction?
The four processes of DNA replication.
What is initiation, unwinding, elongation, and termination?
“DNA sequence located immediately upstream of the eukaryotic core promoter; contains consensus sequences to which transcriptional regulator proteins bind” (Pierce, 2017).
What are regulatory promoters?
Its job is to decode the mRNA sequence into a polypeptide chain.
What are ribosomes?
The three stop codons.
What are UGA, UAA and UAG?
“Binds to origin ad separates strands of DNA to initiate replication”
What is initiator protein?
DNA polymerase inserts an incorrect nucleotide which is not correctly positioned in the active site. This results in the DNA polymerase removing the incorrect nucleotide.
What is proofreading?
Product of TranscriptionW
What is messenger RNA or mRNA?
What are initiation factor 1, initiation factor 2, and initiation factor 3.
Codon(S) for Met.
What is AUG?
“Joins Okazaki fragments by sealing breaks in the sugar-phosphate backbone of newly synthesized DNA”
What is DNA ligase?
“DNA strand that is replicated discontinuously” (Pierce, 2017).
What is lagging strand?
This binds to the promoter and moves along the DNA strand.
What is RNA polymerase?
Contains mRNA, initiator tRNA, GTP, IF-3, IF-2, IF-1, 30S ribosome, and 70S ribosome.
What is the initiation complex?
Codon(s) for Val.
What are GUU, GUC, GUA, and GUG?
“A group of proteins in eukaryotes that binds to the 5′ cap and initiates translation. Aids in exporting mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm and promotes the initial (pioneer) round of translation” (Pierce, 2017).
What is the cap-binding complex (protein)?
“DNA strand that is replicated continuously” (Pierce, 2017).
What is leading strand?
“Consensus sequence (TATAAAA) commonly found in eukaryotic RNA polymerase II promoters; usually located 25 to 30 bp* upstream of the transcription start site. The TATA box determines the start point for transcription” (Pierce, 2017).
*bp stands for base pair(s)
What is the TATA Box?
The product of translation.
What is a polypeptide chain?
Codon(s) for Tyr.
Codon(s) for Pro.
What are CCU, CCC, CCA, and CCG.
