DNA 3R's

UCI SOM Lee

QuestionAnswer
Helicase MCM 2-7; opens the DNA helix; hexameric ring, uses ATP
Polymerase alpha primer polymerase; lays down RNA primer for okazaki fragment binding
Polymerase beta involved in BER
Polymerase gamma mitochondrial DNA
Polymerase delta lagging strand nuclear DNA
Polymerase epsilon leading and lagging strand nuclear DNA
Polymerases with proofreading ability gamma, delta, epsilon
Sliding clamp PCNA
Clamp loader RF-C
Single strand DNA binding protein RPA
DNA ligase Ligase I
DNA topoisomerase Topo I and II
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
DNA damages repaired by NER 6-4PP, bulky adduct, CPD (T-T dimmer)
DNA damages repaired by recombination repair interstrand cross-link, double strand break
DNA damages repaired by MMR A-G mismatch, T-C mismatch, insertion, deletion
Damages repaired by BER x-rays, ROS, alkylating agents, spontaneous rxns
Damages repaired by NER UV, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
Damages repaired by recombination repair x-rays, anti tumor agents
Damages repaired by MMR replication errors
MMR subunits MutSalpha (MSH2-6) recognizes the MM and interacts with PCNA; MLH1-PMS2 has endonuclease activity
MSH2-6 recognizes a mismatch for MMR
PMS2-MLH1 makes the cut in MMR
FAP and what gene is mutated familial adenomatous polyposis; APC is mutated
Asbestos can lead to what mesothelioma
Inhaling cigarette smoke can lead to what G to T transversion
Futile DNA repair models add extra DNA sequences when cell is not dividing
DNA translesion DNA replication using a Y-family polymerase b/c there are too many mutations to use pol delta/epsilon

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.
