DNA TO DNA
Replication
28
DNA TO mRNA
Transcription
29
mRNA TO PROTEINS
Translation
30
Stores genetic information
Nucleic acids
31
Building block of nucleic acids
Nucleotides
32
DNA and RNA are made up of long chain of
nucelotides
33
Nucleotides are made up of
- 5 carbon sugar - Phosphate group - Nitrogenous base
34
Double ringed
Purines
35
Single ringed
Pyrimidines
36
What bond holds nitrogenous bases together
Hydrogen bonds
37
What are the purines
G and A
38
What are the pyrimidines
C, T, U
39
Why is thymine replaced
Uracil is important in protein synthesis
40
41
Why are stop codons important
They terminate protein synthesis
42
Order of nucleotide in a gene
Nucleotide sequence
43
Codes for a specific polypeptide chain
Nucleotide sequence
44
A series of 3 nucleotides that correspond to a specific amino acid
Codons
45
What bond holds amino acid together
Peptide bonds
46
Stop codon
UAG, UGA, UAA
47
Start Codons
AUG
48
Location of dna
Nuclei, but can be find rin sa cytoplasm and mitochondria
49
Location of RNA
cytoplasm, but makikita rin sa nucleus
50
Attachment sites
5 prime and 3 prime
51
In what direction does DNA run in?
Anti Parallel direction
52
They were able to establish and read the sequences in a human person
Human zgenome project
53
54
In human genome project, results allow what?
Allowed patients to know all the important and vital information about themselves
55
Entirety of your DNA strands
Genomes
56
Where our DNA strands coil
Histones
57
Proteins clumped together, forming a ball
Histones
58
Funtion of DNA
Long term storage of genetic info
59
Funtion of rna
To transfer genetic info in organisms
60
Trisomy 21
Down syndrome
61
Extra one strand of chromosome in karyotype
Trisomy
62
Lacks one strand of chromosome in karyotype
Monosomy
63
64
facilitate specific coupling of trna anticodons with mrna codons in protein synthesis
Ribosomes
65
synthesize proteins that function in the cytosol
Free ribosomes
66
make proteins of the endomembrane system and proteins that are secreted from the cell
Bound ribosomes
67
2 types of hormones
Steroidal and non-steroidal
68
Enters the nucleus and performs the entire central dogma
Steroidal Hormones
69
They do not perform central dogma and donnot enter the nucleus
Non-steroidal
