Chp. 21 bio

genomes, proteomes, and Bioinformatics

QuestionAnswer
Genome refers to the entire complement of Dna an organism has
Genomics the study of genomes
Human has 2.91 billion base pairs
why study genomes? -to find all the genes and learn functions -to learn how mutations cause various diseases -to develop therapies for diseases -to examine evolution
Human Genome Project name given to a joint effort to completely sequence the entire DNA sequence of 22 human autosomes and 2 sex chromosomes
Junk dna consists of repetitive dna. raw dna sequence (at least 90%)
Centromeres and telomeres are mostly repetitive DNA.
some regions of repetitive dna are transposons
Transposons are unique DNA sequences that can relocate from one part of genome to another. causing rearrangements.
Only 2% of our genomes codes for proteins.
98% of genome is regulatory, repetitive and unkown.
Proteome is a set of all the proteins made by a cell.
Alternative Splicing is why the proteome is larger than genome.
Bioinformatics is a field that uses computers, math, and stats to record store and analyze large sequences of data.
why is Bionformatics used? used to find genes, regulatory regions, evolutionary relationships.
gene annotation analyzing genes in DNA sequence.
Homologues sequences two sequences are related. had a common ancestor.
Bionformatics programs Blast database.

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.
