central dogma Flashcards
the protein that separates the 2 strands of DNA
Helicase
attaches (RNA) primer to start construction of DNA
primase
Attaches DNA bases to construct DNA
DNA polymerase
Chunks of DNA attached by the DNA polymerase
okazaki fragments
removes RNA primers
exonuclease
3’ to 5 ‘
5’ to 3’
—-<====
leading strand
lagging strand
seals up the fragments of DNA to form a strand
DNA ligase
attaches to a DNA strand to make mDNA from free spaces in the nucleus.
RNA polymerase
binds to the messenger RNA to read the code the produce a chain of amino acids
ribosomes
carries amino acids to the ribosome
tRNA
part of transcription where RNA polymerase attaches to the DNA
initation
part of transcription where RNA polymerase attaches to the DNA
initiation
part of transcription where RNA polymerase attaches to the DNA
initiation
part of transcription where RNA polymerase continues to read the DNA and attaches RNA bases
elongation
part of transcription where RNA polymerase reads a stop codon and cuts off the mRNA.
Termination
