AP biology: 16-19 Flashcards
DNA Helicase
Untwists the double helix and separate the template DNA strands at the replication fork
DNA polymerpase 1
Removes primer towards the end and replaces with DNA
DNA polymerase 3
Continuously synthesizes the leading and elongates Okazaki fragments
DNA ligase
Connects all of the leading and lagging strands together
Primase
Makes the RNA primer at the 5 end of the leading strand and of the Okazaki fragments
Topoisomerase
Corrects over winding ahead of replication forks by breaking, swiveling, and rejoining DNA strands
Telomerase
Catalyzes the lengthening of telomeres in germ cells (ones that will become germs)
Morgan
Genes are on chromosomes
Avery McCarty Macleod
Transforming factor is DNA
Hershey and chase
DNA was what was genetic material in t2
Watson and crick
Deal helical model
Meselson and stahl
Proved semi conservative model
RNA vs DNA
RNA: single stranded, ribose, uracil, cytoplasm, 3 or more forms, smallerm temporary
DNA : double helix, deoxyribose, ulcers, one form, larger
