🗑
RNase H   removes all but one ribonucleotides  
🗑
FEN1   removes last ribonucleotide and several deoxynucleotides  
🗑
Contributing factors to high fidelity DNA replication   polymerase, exonuclease proofreading, MMR  
🗑
Are polymerization and editing activity located at the same site on the pol   NO  
🗑
Do all DNA pols have 3’ to 5’ exonuclease activity   NO  
🗑
DNA ligase action   seals 3’OH and 5’Phosphate  
🗑
What does processivity mean   how many nucleotides are added in one attachement  
🗑
Which enzyme is responsible for telomere length maintenance   telomerase  
🗑
Human telomerase   hTERT-human telomere reverse transcriptase  
🗑
What proteins recognize mispairs, small deletions, and small insertions in MMR   MSH heterodimer  
🗑
What proteins make MMR cleavage   PMS2  
🗑
How are newly synthesized strands detected   lagging strand has gaps; leading strand I don’t have a clue  
🗑
Examples of epigenetic change   hypermethylation of CpG island; post-translational modification of a histone; repair gene is transcriptionally silenced through epigenetic modification  
🗑
8-oxoG is repaired by   BER  
🗑
BER steps   glycosylase cuts out the damaged base, AP endonuclease cleaves the deoxyribose phosphate backbone, AP lyase binds it all up  
🗑
Y-family DNA pols   used for DNA synthesis when template is damaged; pol eta is in this family and it’s mutation leads to XPV  
🗑
DNA topo I   introduces a single stranded break; attached to 3’ of DNA  
🗑
DNA topo II   introduces a double stranded break; needed for daughter chromosome separation  
🗑
Campothecin   drug that reversibly binds and stabilizes cleavable complexes formed between DNA and topo I; used in cancer treatment  
🗑
Doxorubicin   inhibits topo II; widely used in breast cancer treatment; also known as adriamycin  
🗑
Replication origin   discrete sit on chromosome where replication starts  
🗑
Fusion of S and G1 cells results in   DNA synthesis inducement in G1  
🗑
Fusion of G2 and S cells results in   no change  
🗑
Telomore DNA sequence   TTAGGG  
🗑
Diseases caused by trinucleotide repeat expansion   fragile X syndrome, friedreich’s ataxia, myotonic dystrophy, spinocerebellar ataxia type B, huntington’s disease, kennedy’s disease  
🗑
Huntington’s disease   expansion of CAG repeat  
🗑
Spontaneous DNA damage   base loss (mostly purines), tautomeric shift (keto to enol or amino to imino), deamination, ROS damage (mostly in mitochondria, alkylation lesions  
🗑
Environmentally induced DNA damage   UV damage (260 nm) eg thiamine dimmers (CPD) and 6-4PP, chemicals  
🗑
4 other types of DNA damage   replication errors, intra and inter strand crosslinks, DNA-protein crosslinks, strand breaks  
🗑
types of DNA repair   photolyase, alkyltransferase, BER, DER, MMR  
🗑
photolyase   reverses UV damage; not present in humans  
🗑
alkyltransferase   removes methyl group from O6 position of guanine; the repair protein is AGT which is the same as MGMT  
🗑
AGT   O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (used in alkyltransferase)  
🗑
MGMT   O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (used in alkyltransferase)  
🗑
O6-meG cell apoptosis process   requires MMR; MMR removes thymine which introduces a break in DNA; O6-meG also can bind to MutS which recruits ATR-ATRIP  
🗑
BER short patch repair   dominant repair pathway; DNA pol beta fills one nucleotide  
🗑
BER long patch repair   uses pol beta, delta and epsilon (2-10 bases), and PCNA. FEN1 removes DNA flap and ligase 1 seals the gap  
🗑
3 steps to BER   1)N-glycosylase creates an AP site 2)AP endonuclease (APE) nicks at 5’ of AP site 3)extension by DNA pol  
🗑
3 genetic NER diseases   xenoderma pigmentosum, cockayne’s syndrome, trichothiodystrophy  
🗑
xenoderma pigmentosum   light sensitivity, weird pigmentation, early skin cancer  
🗑
cockayne’s syndrome   premature aging, dwarfism  
🗑
trichothiodystrophy   premature aging, brittle hair, short, facial abnormalities  
🗑
origins of DSB   IR, ROS, and replication of SSB  
🗑
Rad 51-59   basically facilitate in homology search  
🗑
Rad 50   process DNA at ends of a double stranded break  
🗑
BRCA1   deficient in breast cancer and interacts with Rad 50  
🗑
BRCA2   breast cancer susceptibility gene and interacts with Rad 51`  
🗑
DNA damage checkpoints   G1 checkpoint is leaving G1 and going to S, G2 checkpoint is leaving G2 and going into M, Metaphase checkpoint assures all chromosomes are attached to spindles  
🗑
DNA damages repaired by BER   c deamination, 8-oxoguanine, single strand break  
🗑

🗑
MSH2-6   recognizes a mismatch for MMR  
🗑
PMS2-MLH1   makes the cut in MMR
