Anatomy, Biochem and Physiology Flashcards
Central dogma of the genetics
DNA to protien
Building blocks of DNA
Sugar phosphate, base, and nucleotide
How are AT and GC bonded
AT w/ 2 H bonds
GC w/ 3 h bonds
How are nucleotides linked w/ through a sugar-phosphate backbone
covalently
The 5’ end is characterized by the
phosphate group
How is DNA packed in eukaryotes
Histones(portiens)
histones is comprised of 8 monomers
H2, H2b H3 and H4 x 2
Levels of DNA packing (eukaryotic)
Nucleosomes, beads on a string, and 30nm(solenoid)
What is the role of H1
It is a binds together other nucleosomes
How is prokaryotic DNA packed
HU protiens
Where does DNA synthesis being?
ORIC
Prokaryotic genomes are usually ____ so have ___ ORI
circular and have one
Eukaryotics chromosomes have ____ replication origin
multiple
Why does eukaryotics genomes have multiple ORC
Large amount of DNA to process
in e.coli what tow sequences are needed
13 nucleotide sequence(three in tandem array)
9 Nucleotide sequence
13 mer tandem sequence
bonding at A-T is weaker and this means that seperation of DNA is easier
the 9 nucleotide regions is needed for
DNA-A initiator proteins to bind
After DNA-A bind what is next
DNA-C protein delivers Helicase(DNA-B)
Single stranded binding protein(SSB)
bind to single stranded DNA to prevent reanneling or forming a secondary structure
what is a primosome
Has DNA-B and a primase
DNA Polymerase III fxn
to catalyze the formation of phosphodiester bond
3’=5’ proofreading exonuclease
to clip away any unpaired residues at the primer terminus
how does DNA encounter for the lagging strand
okazaki fragments
in bacteria how many RNA polymerases are there
one, the sigma factor
in eukaryotes how many RNA polymerases are there
3
RNA polymerase I:
RNA Polymerase II:
RNA polymerase III:
Where will RNA polymerase bind in prokaryotic genes
will bind to the promoter regions also know as the Pribnow box
In RNA what is the Sense and Anti-sense stands
Sense: coding strand RNA should be identical besides the U replacement
Anti: template
In prokaryotic transcription how does it stop
Poly U and hairpin structure
Open reading Fram(ORF)
Used to see what the gene will be made into
