100
A DNA molecule that can carry other, "foreign" pieces of DNA
What is a vector?
100
The totality of an organism's chemical reactions
What is metabolism?
100
This is this site of RNA polymerase binding
What is the promoter?
100
This occurs when a protein catalyzes the addition of a phosphate group on to itself.
What is autophosphorylation?
100
This anaerobic process converts pyruvate to ethanol
What is alcohol fermentation?
200
This technique can tell you the relative levels of mRNA in a cell.
What is RNA sequencing?
200
The region on the enzyme where the substrate binds
What is an active site?
200
What is the role of lactose in regulation of the lac operon?
What is a corepessor?
200
This protein breaks down lactose.
What is beta-galactosidase?
200
Oxidative phosphorylation occurs under aerobic or anaerobic conditions?
Aerobic
300
This method is used to separate DNA molecules by size
What is gel electrophoresis?
300
This process is where an enzyme binds a phosphate group from a substrate to ADP to make ATP and a product.
What is substrate level phosphorylation?
300
The lacI gene encodes for this.
What is a repressor?
300
This is the addition of a phosphate group to a molecule is typically carried out by this type of protein.
What is a kinase?
300
When glucose is phosphorylated and cleaved, this is the 3-carbon product obtained.
What is pyruvate?
400
This vector can be used to infect large cells with its recombinant DNA
What is a bacteriophage?
400
Enzymes catalyze reactions by specifically doing this.
What is lowering the activation energy of a reaction?
400
This regulatory "switch" is a segment of DNA that is usually positioned within the promoter
What is an operator?
400
This process resets a signal transduction cascade's sensitivity to a stimulus
What is adaptation?
400
This large multi-unit protein phosphorylates ADP to ATP
What is ATP synthase?
500
These recognize and cleave specific sites in the DNA sequence and are used in molecular cloning.
What are restriction enzymes?
500
These pathways consume energy to build complex molecules from simpler ones
What are anabolic pathways?
500
Glucose levels are (Directly / Inversely) related to cAMP levels?
Inversely
500
The flagella must rotate in this direction in order for the bacteria to "run"
What is counter-clockwise?
500
This protein uses the exergonic flow of H+ to drive ATP phosphorylation
What is ATP synthase?
