Biology Test 4

DSC DWS BIO 1610 Test 4

QuestionAnswer
Discovered DNA Replication Arthur Kornberg 1955
Discovered Nucleins (DNA) in Sperm cells and Pus Cells Johann Friedrich Miescher 1868
Streptococcus Pneumoniae Experiment- transformation of nonvirulent to virulent by protein Frederick Griffith 1928
Transformation Experiment- Found DNA responsible for gene transmission, not protein Avery, McCarty, MacLeod 1944
Bacteriophage transformation experiment- DNA hereditary Material, viruses transmit DNA Hershey, 1952
Paper Chromatography of nucleotides Erwin Chargaff 1947
X-ray photos of DNA Wilkins and Franklin 1920-1958
Molecular Structure of Nucleic Acids: A The Double Helix. Structure of Deoxy Ribose Nucleic Acid in Nature. Built on Chargaff and Franklin's work Watson and Crick 1953
Invented Gen. Engineering when they transferred Genes from One organism to another Berg and Cohen 1972-3
Whole Gene Shotgun Sequencing, Human Genome Project J. Craig Venter2000
Mass Reproduction of DNA in a test tube Replication
Enzyme which breaks the Double Helix by dissolving Hydrogen Bonds Helicase
Stabilizes DNA and holds it together during replication Single Strand Binding Protein
Enzyme which makes RNA Primers 5 Prime to 3 Prime DNA Primase
Enzyme that builds DNA Polymers 5 Prime to 3 Prime DNA Polymerase
Leading DNA Strand "Reads" Continuously
Lagging Strand "Reads" Discontinously
RNA primer and associated DNA Okazaki Fragments
Ezymes that put DNA back together DNA Ligase
Enzyme that builds RNA primers RNA Polymerase
A specific gene is Transcribed into RNA (occurs in nucleus) Transcription
Promoter DNA where transcription starts
Where transcription stops Terminator DNA
Transcribes DNA takes info to Ribosomes mRNA (Messenger RNA)
takes info from mRNA to make protein rRNA (ribosomal)
brings amino acids to construct proteins tRNA (transer)
Junk DNA Introns
Ribosomal subunit binds Amino Acids, RNA together A site
Ribosomal subunit, binds Peptides / tRNA together P site
Ribosomal subunits where amino acids exit E site
Start code for Amino Acids AUG
Bonds between amino acids Peptide Bonds
Codes for Stop UAA, UAG, UGA
Mistake in genetic code, not always bad Mutation
1 nucleotide or 1 Amino Acid Mistake Point mutation
deletions cause frame shift left
insertions cause frame shift right
Affects all DNA after this point Mistakes During DNA Replication
Affects all RNA and proteins after this point Mistakes during Transcription
Affects all Proteins after this point Mistakes during Translation
Cell Produces more viruses Lysogenic Cycle
Cell incorporates viral DNA into its own, cell division occurs, resulting in new daughter cells w/ viral DNA incorporated. Lytic Cycle
40% AT, 60 % GC, a's match t's, g's match c's Chargaff's Rule
Cuts up specific sequences of DNA restriction enzymes
puts DNA back together Ligating Enzymes
enzyme that reverses transcription sometimes found in RNA carrying viruses Reverse Transcriptase
Replicates DNA The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)
viruses are used to inject new genes, in place of damaged genes Gene Therapy
Forensic Use of identifying genetic code, uses semen, blood, etc, and requires large amounts of fresh tissue Tissue Typing
forensic identifier of genetic code requires very little tissue, tissue can be up to three years old, identifies w/ great certainty your genetic fingerprint DNA fingerprinting
improving human genetics eugenics

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.
