DNA and Cell Cycle
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are the three things that make up DNA? | Ribose Sugar Phosphate Group Nitrogen Base |
| Which type of nitrogen bases contain double ringed bases and what are they called? | Purines Adenine and Guanine |
| Pyrimidines contain what kind of ringed bases? | Single |
| How many bonds are shared between Guanine and Cytosine? | 3 hydrogen bonds |
| List the steps of the cell cycle in order. | G1-phase S-phase G2-phase Mitosis Cytokinesis |
| In which phase are DNA replicated? | S-phase |
| What happens in G2-phase? | proliferation of organelles |
| When cells are no longer dividing they enter what phase? | Go-phase |
| What enzyme "unzips" DNA? | Helicase |
| What enzyme is the DNA maker? | DNA polymerase |
| DNA polymerase works in what direction? | 3' to 5' |
| DNA ligase has to join what together? | Okazaki fragments |
| What does semi conservative mean? | Each strand has half of the original genetic material. |
| List the phases of Mitosis in order. | Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase |
| In which phase are nuclear membranes dissolved and the spindle apparatus forms? | Prophase |
| What happens in metaphase? | The duplicated chromosomes align at the metaphase plate. |
| In which phase are the chromosomes pulled apart by the spindle apparatus? | Anaphase |
| In which phase do we undo everything that happens in prophase? | Telophase |
| What is the connector in the middle of a chromosome? | Centromere |
| What is the name of the protein complex to which the spindle apparatus connects to the spindle apparatus? | Kinetochore |
| What are two chromatids together called? | Sister Chromatid |
| What is formed in animals during anaphase? | Cleavage Furrow |
| In what phase in plants are cell plates formed? | Telophase |
| What is the name of the proteins that regulate the cell cycle? | Cyclins |
| What give ATP to enzymes involved in a given phase? | Kinases |
| In what phase are S-phase cyclins made? | G1-phase |
| What do the S-phase cyclins do next? | Bind to S-phase kinases |
| What happens in G1 arrest? | Check DNA for errors |
| What protein detects DNA damage? | p53 |
| What does p53 do? | Inhibits s-phase cyclin complexes from forming |
| In what phase are unduplicated DNA checked? | S-phase |
| In what arrest phase is DNA rechecked for errors? | G2 arrest |
| What is checked for in M-arrest? | spindle apparatus errors |
| How is polymerase effective? (two reasons) | It can exhibit proofreading capabilities and correct its own mistakes |
| What happens first in base-exision repair? | The bad area is bound to by recognizer proteins. |
| What enzyme pulls off bad DNA? | Glycosylase |
| What are the final steps of base-exision repair? | DNA polymerase puts correct DNA in and ligase binds it to the original strand. |
