phenotype | the expression of a gene
🗑
|

gene | a segment of DNA and it codes for a functional product
🗑
|

purines | double ring
🗑
|
||||
which nucleotide's are purines? | adenine and guanine
🗑
|
||||
pyrimidines | single ring
🗑
|
||||
which nucleotide's are pyrimidines? | cytosine, thymine, and uracil
🗑
|
||||
plus strand | the side to tell what you what protein to make
🗑
|
||||
minus strand | is the template strand that replicates the gene strand
🗑
|
||||
genetic code | linear sequence of bases
🗑
|
||||
replication | DNA -->DNA
🗑
|
||||
transcription | DNA-->RNA
🗑
|
||||
translation | RNA-->protiens
🗑
|
||||
tRNA | is the interpreter from RNA->proteins
🗑
|
||||
semi-conservative replication | the new daughter strands have each parent strand as a template
🗑
|
||||
3’ carbon | has the OH group, used for dehydration synthesis
🗑
|
||||
5’ carbon | has the phosphate group, dead end
🗑
|
||||
antiparallel | the strands are oriented in opposite directions from each
other
🗑
|
||||
ends of the molecule | refer to the ‘5 prime’ or ‘3 prime’
🗑
|
||||
where does the energy come from to do replication? | free nucleotide's in the cytoplasm
🗑
|
||||
DNA polymerase | proofread's the bases added and get's rid of them if they don't match correctly
🗑
|
||||
how many phases does DNA replication have? | three, unwinding, complimentary base pairing & joining
🗑
|
||||
unwinding | the parent strands are unwound by an enzyme called helicase
& the hydrogen bonds are ‘unzipped’
🗑
|
||||
what enzyme unwinds the parent strand? | helicase
🗑
|
||||
complimentary base pairing | free bases in the nucleus spontaneously form hydrogen bonds
with the complimentary bases in the parent strands
🗑
|
||||
joining | DNA polymerase III makes a covalent bond between the sugar
and the phosphate group on the daughter strand
🗑
|
||||
DNA polymerase III | adds the base nucleotide's to the strand
🗑
|
||||
what prevents the upstream tangling of DNA by nicking it in places and allowing it to unravel? | Topoisomerases
🗑
|
||||
replication fork | the point at which the DNA is unwound to allow for replication
🗑
|
||||
what is needed to start a new strand? | RNA polyermase
🗑
|
||||
what is RNA polyermase also called? | primase
🗑
|
||||
what is DNA polymerase I? | is the proofread for DNA and removes the primer, fixes any mistakes
🗑
|
||||
what is DNA ligase? | seals the nicks between adjacent, unattached nucleotides
🗑
|
||||
transcription | synthesis of a complementary strand of RNA from a
DNA template.
🗑
|
||||
Messenger RNA (mRNA) | carries the genetic code – the working copy of the gene, carried into protiens
🗑
|
||||
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) | is an integral part of ribosome structure – the site
of protein synthesis, not translated into proteins
🗑
|
||||
Transfer RNA (tRNA) | carries the free amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis, not translated into protiens
🗑
|
||||
Ribozymes and spliceosomes | RNA enzymes
🗑
|
||||
3 Stages of transcription | initiation, elongation, termination
🗑
|
||||
codons | groups of three nucleotide's, that code for a particular amino acid
🗑

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.
