Cell Biology Test 1

Material for test 1

TermDefinition
Eukaryote Cells nucleus, multi-cellular, larger genome, more regulatory DNA sequences
Prokaryotic Cells no membrane bound DNA, cell wall common, single-celled organism, greater diversity/habitat, small genomes
Universal features of cells all cells store genetic information as DNA and bounded by a membrane
DNA Replication 3 semi-conservative, synthesis is 5' to 3', algging and leading strands; active replication fork; assembly of nucleosomes during replication
Transcription RNAs releases as synthesized - multiple transcripts are produced at same time
Transcription initiation General transcription factors and accessory factors
General transcription factors TFIID binds first; TFIIH - helicase; Phosphorylation of CTD catalyzed by TFIIH
Accessory factors Transcriptional activators; mediator; chromatin-remodeling complexes and HATs
TBP Tata binding protein- binds TATA box
Ribosomes cytoplasmic and ER-associated
Mechanism of translation Initiation; elongation; termination; polyribosomes
Cell fractionation separate organelles, protein complexes, macromolecules for study in vitro
Column chromatography purify individual proteins
Initiation of DNA replication replication origin; single or multiple origins not all activated simultaneously
ORC origin recognition complex - marks origin throughout cell cycle; initiation regulated by other proteins
Replication at telomeres end problem- lagging strand synthesis- no primer; replicative cell senescence- hypothesis for aging
CstF cleavage stimulation factor F - 3' polyadenelation
CPSF cleavage and polyadenelation specificity factor; travel with CTD of RNA pol II during transcription; catalyze cleavage at 3' end, poly A polymerase adds ~200 As; poly A binding proteins bind to tail, remain during nuclear export
PolII processivity loss after cleavage in 3' polyadenelation
IRES translational control mechanism; internal ribosome entry site; internal domain of mRNA forms stem-loop structure that can recruit machinery to start protein synthesis
miRNAs very small RNAs that lead to RNA degradation or inhibit translation
hsp60 barrel structure with isolation chamber; ATPase cap; mechanism for re-folding
hsp70 binds hydrophobic patches; binds as peptide exits ribosome
Ubiquitin pathway 7 kD polypeptide; covalent attachment to lysine sidechain; poly-ubiquitination- long chains of ubiquitin
E1 ubiquitin activating enzyme
E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme
E3 ubiquitin ligase

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
