DNA
The sugar that is part of DNA
Deoxyribose
The sugar that is found in RNA
Ribose
Translation of RNA to protein happens here
A mutation that does not change the sequence of amino acids and does not cause disease.
Silent mutation
The 4 nitrogen bases of DNA
Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine?
The sequence of nucleotide bases on mRNA that would complement the following bases on DNA: A T T C G C A G T
U A A G C G U C A
DNA is copied into a strand of RNA during this step of protein synthesis.
Transcription
The type of mutation that occurs when one base is replaced by another.
Substitution
The enzyme used to match up complementary nucleotide bases during transcription.
RNA Polymerase
Two things that happen in the nucleus involving DNA
DNA Replication and Transcription
The full names for the three different types of RNA
messenger RNA, transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA
Anticodons and amino acids are found on this molecule.
transfer RNA
A mutation that results in an early stop codon.
Nonsense mutation.
The enzyme used to match up complementary nucleotide bases during DNA replication.
DNA Polymerase
The three parts of the DNA nucleotide (building block)
Deoxyribose sugar, phosphate group and nitrogen base
The names of the 4 nitrogen bases of RNA.
Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Uracil.
Groups of three bases on a mRNA molecule
Codon
The type of mutation that happens when a base is either deleted or inserted, causing a change in the reading of codons and amino acids.
Frameshift
DNA Helicase
The reason why DNA replication happens.
Pass on genetic information to other cells during cell division
Two differences between the STRUCTURE of RNA and DNA.
DNA is double stranded and RNA is single stranded. RNA has Ribose and DNA has Deoxyribose. RNA has the base Uracil and DNA has the base Thymine.
This is the anticodon for CAG
GUC
The original strand of DNA is ACT TTG CGA The mutated strand of DNA is ACT TTC GA This is a _______________ mutation that causes a _________ of amino acids.
Deletion, Frameshift
The name for long chains of amino acids that form during protein synthesis.
