DNA Replication
These are the 4 nitrogen bases that form the "rungs" of the twisted ladder in DNA.
Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine
DNA uses the sugar 'deoxyribose', and RNA uses this sugar.
Ribose
This is what TFIID binds to, to invite the initiation complex to the promoter.
TATA box
This is the type of sequence that is cut out, or spliced, from the transcript.
Introns
Codon
This is the enzyme that adds new nucleotides in the 3'-5' direction.
DNA Polymerase
DNA uses the nitrogen base 'Thymine', while RNA uses this nitrogen base.
Uracil
This is the kind of enzyme that adds a phosphate (PO4 2-) to a protein.
Kinase
This is the name of the "machinery" that cuts out the non-coding sequence(s) from the transcript.
Spliceosome
This is the part of the tRNA that recognizes the 3 base code on the mRNA.
Anti-codon
These "chunks" are made discontinuously on the lagging strand.
Okazaki fragments
This type of RNA will become a protein.
Messenger RNA
This RNA modification is added to the 5' end of the transcript.
Capping/methyl-Guanosine cap
The spliceosome is made up of catalytic RNA's called this!
snRNPs/ Snurps
This part of the ribosome matches the tRNAs to the codons on the mRNA.
Small subunit
This enzyme "unzips" the double stranded DNA by breaking the Hydrogen bonds between bases.
DNA Helicase
This type of RNA carries a single amino acid to the ribosome.
Transfer RNA
This RNA modification is added to the 3' end of the transcript.
Poly-A/Poly-adenylation tail
Lariat/Lasso
The large subunit of the ribosome does this!
This enzyme relieves tension in the DNA behind the replication fork.
DNA Topoisomerase
This sequence is upstream, or "in front of" the gene that will be transcribed.
Promoter sequence
Eukaryotic genes have 2 types of sequences, and this is what they're called!
Introns and Exons
This is where a fully mature mRNA will go after all of its processing.
Cytoplasm
This is the order in which the tRNA goes through each "site" on the ribosome.
A-site, P-site, E-site
