DNA Replication
DNA Transcription
DNA Translation
Operons
Others
100

This enzyme is essential for removing the RNA primers from the fragments and replacing them with the required nucleotides. Specifically in Prokaryotes

DNA Polymerase 1

100
A -10 consensus sequence for Prokaryotic Transcription

TATAAT

100

This type of organism can go process transcription and translation at the same time

Prokaryotes

100

A classic example of negative inducible operon that we have talked about in class

Lac Operons

100

A type of genetic component that copies and pastes themselves into different genomic locations.

Retrotransposons.

200

This enzyme is responsible for elongating the leading strand during the dna replication. Specifically for Eukaryotes

DNA Polymerase Epsilon
200

This enzyme recognizes famously the TATA box at -35

RNA Polymerase II

200

This sequences represents a three consecutive nucleotides that codes for a specific amino acid

Codon

200

An Example of negative repressible regulation that we have talked about in class

Trp Operon

200

This is the process of selecting different combinations of splice sites within an mRNA.

Alternate splicing

300

This part is an end of a chromosome and its function is to protect the internal regions of the chromosome and maintain genomic integrity

Telomeres

300

This enzyme transcribes rRNAs and recognizes promoter from -1 to -50, AT-rich sequence

RNA Polymerase II

300

This is the template that is being read during the translation.

mRNA

300

This type of control describes when the binding of a regulatory protein turns the operon on or off

Positive vs. Negative control

300

In this process, when a certain chemical group is attached to the histones, it results in Heterochromatin.

Methylation

400

This is the direction where DNA replication occurs

5' to 3'

400

This process occurs when a certain factor binds with the transcript strand and terminates the transcription by breaking hydrogen bonds between the template and the transcript.

Rho Dependent Termination

400

This type of RNA connects the mRNA codons to the amino acids they encode.

tRNA

400

This type of control describes when a signal/substrate results in the expression of the structural genes

Inducible vs. repressible control

400

A DNA element that acts as a boundary stopping DNA folding out of its territory

Insulator
500

This Y shaped region on a replicating DNA molecule where new strands are growing

Replication Fork

500

These are subunits of RNA polymerases that are responsible for determining the specificity of promoter DNA binding and initiating transcription. (Prokaryotes)

Sigma factors

500
They facilitate the coupling of tRNA anticodons to mRNA codons

Ribosomes

500

This is produced when glucose levels are low. They attach themselves to CAP which results in high levels of transcription.

cAMP

500

Short Sequences of DNA nucleotides that are synthesized discontinuously and later will be linked together by DNA ligase during the DNA replications

Okazaki fragments.
