|---|---|
| The three possible models of replication were | ___Conservative____, semi-conservative, and dispersive. |
| Meselson & Stahl determined that replication was | __Semi-conservative____. |
| ___Helicase____ does what? | unwinds and separates the DNA. |
| __Topoisomerase____ does what? | relieves supercoiling. |
| What stranded binding protein coat the single stranded DNA to protect it from degradation? | Single |
| ___Primers____ are | small pieces of RNA to provide a 3’ hydroxyl group for DNA polymerase to add a nucleotide and are provided by the enzyme primase. |
| DNA ____Polymerase____ | is the enzyme that adds the nucleotides to the newly growing DNA strand. |
| ___Replication_____ takes place in the | 5’ to 3’direction. |
| ___Telomeres____ are | the ends of the chromosome which track how many times a cell has replicated. |
| According to the video the leading strand replicates in a... | __Continuous__ manner, while the lagging strand replicates in short pieces called Okazaki fragments. |
| What does Exonuclease do? | removes the RNA ___Primer__ from the new DNA strands. |
| What does DNA ___Ligase__ do? | joins all of the pieces of DNA in the new strands together by covalently bonding the sugar phosphate backbone. |
| What is telomerase? | an enzyme that can maintain the ends of the chromosomes and is activated in cancer. |
