A

Original of replication

35
Q

Mammalian origins are - rich

A

AT, no common consensus sequence

36
Q

Rate of replication is dependent on

A

Number of origins activated

37
Q

Replication factories

A

Where we expect to find replication forks and lots of replication

38
Q

ORC

A

Origin recognition complex- euk

39
Q

(euk)For replication to start, - binds to the origin. This process is ATP -

A

ORC and Cdc6 , dependent

40
Q

G1 phase

A

Origin selection

41

Cdc45 and GINS plus MCM2-7 inactive hexamer, loaded on leading strands

44
Q

Cyclin depends kinases (CDKs)

A

Controls licensing of origins, activators of cell cycle transitions

45
Q

Low CDK activity

A

Mcm2-7 can load

46
Q

CDK high (s and g2)

A

Origins fire, but don’t reload

47

A

Yea idk in the primer?

48
Q

Polymerase switching

A

Hand of DNA from one poly to another

49
Q

A

proliferating cell nuclear antigen- clamp, keeps poly from falling off

50
Q

RFC- replication factor C

A

Loads clamp

51
Q

alt methods of circular DNA replication

A

rolling circle rep,

52
Q

rolling circle rep

A

(plasmid and bacteria) dsDNA is nicked, and free 3’ OH is used for replication. one strand is displaced

53
Q

telomere repetitive sequence

A

huaman- TTAGGG
tetrahymena- TTGGGG

54
Q

telomeres

A

allows chromo to remain linear, protect ends

shorter strand after primer is removed

56
Q

g strand

A

overhanging pice after primer is removed

57
Q

A

telomerase RNA component (TERC)

59
Q

telo protein part

A

Telo reverse transcriptase (TERT)

60
Q

how does telo care of overhang

A

elongates C strand and folds the shit around and bonds to shorter one

61
Q

shelterin

A

prevents telo from fusing together, coats t loops

62
Q

TZAP

A

will bind where shelterin isn’t and cut that bitch out

63
Q

as we age, telomeres get

64
Q

hay flick limit

A

little telomerase activity limit, no longer divides

65
Q

senescent

A

doesn’t divide

66
Q

proof for telomeres linked to age

A
  1. adding hTERT allows cells to escape hayflick limit
  2. mice with no telo RNA looked old asf when they’re young
  3. mice liver thingy (fucked up bruh)
67
Q

dykeratosis congenita

A

loss of telo activity, aging syndrome (greys, hair loss, fucked)
