Question
Answer
Location of Translation   show
🗑
show Informational transfer from mRNA to protein. Also called protein synthesis.  
🗑
tRNA in translation   show
🗑
anticodon   show
🗑
"E" site in large ribosomal subunit   show
🗑
"P" site in large ribosomal subunit   show
🗑
show holds an aminoacyl tRNA  
🗑
translation - initiation   show
🗑
translation - elongation   show
🗑
show tRNA with release factor binds to "A" site. Protein is released. Ribosome subunits separate. mRNA is released.  
🗑
show Cells whose cell division is unregulated, creating a mass of cells.  
🗑
Proto-Oncogenes   show
🗑
Tumor Suppressors   show
🗑
MPF   show
🗑
Growth factors   show
🗑
show A transporter protein to take lactose into cells. An enzyme to break lactose into 2 monomers.  
🗑
lac genes   show
🗑
When lactose is absent, what is bound to the lac operon?   show
🗑
show Lactose (the inducer) binds to repressor. Repressor releases from DNA and transcription occurs.  
🗑
show Transcription of lac operon is drastically reduced. Glucose inhibits the lactose transport activity of galactoside permease.  
🗑
show Gene clusters that contains genes that produce proteins that function together. All genes in the cluster are controlled by the same promoter.  
🗑
show A gene that has its own promoter and is always active. Produces a repressor protein.  
🗑
show Binds to regulatory sequence of DNA.  
🗑
In chromatin structure, each nucleosome is:   show
🗑
HDAC   show
🗑
show Histone Acetyl Transferase Adds acetyl group to histone when DNA gets loosened  
🗑
show when the bases of DNA are not changed but chemical modifications are added (methyl groups or acetyl groups) that alter gene expression  
🗑
Epigenetic inheritance   show
🗑
show proteins that bind to regulatory sequences on the DNA.  
🗑
show 1. Synthesis of signal 2. Release of signaling molecule outside the cell 3. Transport of signaling molecule to target cells 4. Detection of signal by receptor protein 5. Signal Processing & Cellular response to signal 6. Deactivation of signal  
🗑
show signals (hormones) act on target cells distant from site of synthesis  
🗑
Paracrine signaling   show
🗑
show signals act on the cells that synthesized the signal Ex. Growth factors  
🗑
What else besides chemicals can act as signals?   show
🗑
show The presence of a protein receptor for a particular signal determines which cells will respond to a particular signal. Ex: responds to estrogen only if it has estrogen receptor.  
🗑
show Proteins that are dynamic  
🗑
Lipid-soluble signals   show
🗑
Lipid-insoluble   show
🗑
Transduction   show
🗑
show Signal transduction via G protein coupled receptors Signal transduction via Enzyme-Linked proteins  
🗑
show B4 signal binds to receptor, it’s in the “off” state, GDP is bound to 1 of 3 G proteins. Signal binds to receptor, GDP leaves, GTP binds to G protein, activating it/on. Activating an enzyme that generates second messengers, activating transc. factors.  
🗑
Signal transduction via Enzyme-Linked proteins   show
🗑
show Ras kicks out GDP and binds to GTP  
🗑
show GTP It activate G proteins that activate the enzyme that generates second messengers that active transcription factors. It turns on signaling pathways  
🗑
Second messengers   show
🗑
What is a phosphorylation cascade? What type of signaling pathway is it associated with?   show
🗑
What is the master tumor suppressor protein? What is its main job (what does it activate)?   show
🗑
show the break will go off (gas is pushed), and it will allow the cells to go into the S phase.  
🗑
p53, if DNA is in bad shape (damaged)   show
🗑
show Cell killing itself when p53 sees that it is damaged and not repairable.  
🗑
show One mechanism where cell cycle proteins can become defective change in base sequence (shape)  
🗑
When does mutation occur?   show
🗑
show DNA polymerase can fix it, but can miss the mistakes p53/ other tumor suppressors are able to remove the wrong bases and insert the correct bases DNA repair enzymes are constantly scanning DNA and repairing errors and damage (many are activated by p53)  
🗑
show Chemicals that cause high rates of DNA mutations affect cell cycle control genes.  
🗑
Cell differentiation   show
🗑
Benign tumors   show
🗑
Malignant tumors   show
🗑
show identifies defective cellular pathways and targets. Especially effective for tumors resulting from high mitogens (breast).  
🗑
Chemotherapy   show
🗑
show ionizing radiation that damages DNA - thought that tumor cells are more susceptible.  
🗑
show 1. reception of a signaling molecule 2. transduction of the signal 3. response to the signal  
🗑
LEARNING CATALYTICS In what environmental conditions would you expect to measure high levels of gene expression of the lac operon in E.coli?   show
🗑
show Levels of beta galactosidase and permease  
🗑
show DNA methylation  
🗑
show It integrates information about the environment It activates transcription factors It requires receptor proteins It alters gene expression  
🗑
LEARNING CATALYTICS What protein modification activates intercellular signaling proteins?   show
🗑
show lipid hormones  
🗑
show second messengers  
🗑
A(n) _____ is an example of a signal molecule that can bind to an intracellular receptor and thereby cause a gene to be turned on or off.   show
🗑
show estrogen  
🗑
Regulatory proteins bind to _____.   show
🗑
In the presence of a regulatory protein the lac operon is _____.   show
🗑
A(n) _______ is a stretch of DNA consisting of an operator, a promoter, and genes for a related set of proteins, usually making up an entire metabolic pathway.   show
🗑
show genes of an operon  
🗑
show promoter  
🗑
A(n) ________ codes for a protein, such as a repressor, that controls the transcription of another gene or group of genes.   show
🗑
Regulatory proteins often bind to the ______ to control expression of the operon.   show
🗑
A(n) ________ is a protein that inhibits gene transcription. In bacteria, this protein binds to the DNA in or near the promoter.   show
🗑
A(n) ______ is a specific small molecule that binds to a bacterial repressor protein and changes its shape so that it cannot bind to an operator, thus switching an operon on.   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
