16
Q

Site specific recombination

A

Requires short sequence of homologous recognized by recombination enzyme
RecA independent

17
Q

Generalized recombination

A

Needs long stretch of homology esteem cells, needs recA

18
Q

RecA

A

Helps align homologous DNA and catalyze the exchange of strands

19
Q

Transition mutation

A

Purine switches to other purine or same with pyrimidines

20
Q

Transversion point mutation

A

Purine to pyrimidine or vice versa

21
Q

Inversion mutation

A

DNA is flipped in orientation

22
Q

Reversion mutation

A

DNA mutates back to original sequence

23
Q

Missense

A

Wrong codon

24
Q

Tautomeric shifts

A

Alter base pairing properties (as pair with Cs and Gs with ts)

25
Q

Oxidative deamination

A

Removed part of molecule to make it a different base

26
Q

Apurinic site

A

Take out whole purine

27
Q

Ames test

A

Negative- few colonies
Positive- colonies centered around disk because it caused mutation and reversions
Tests if it’s carcinogenic

28
Q

Two types of DNA repair

A

Error proof and error prone

29
Q

Methyl mismatch repair

A

Error proof prevent mutation

Based on recognition of methylation pattern

30
Q

Photoreactivation

A

Error proof

Enzyme photolyase binds to pyrimidine diner and cleaves cyclonic and ring

31
Q

Nucleotide excision repair

A

Error proof

Endonucleoases remove path of ss DNA contained damaged bases

32
Q

Base excision repair

A

Error proof

Cuts damaged parts from the backbone severe

33
Q

SOS repair

A

Error prone
Last resort
Mutate or die

34
Q

Insertion sequence

A

Target of transposase

New gene flanked by shirt inverted repeat sequences

35
Q

How do IS elements transfer?2

A

Nonreplicative- it takes from one to give to another

Replication transposition- duplicates, then gives

36
Q

Type I transposon

A

1 gene

37
Q

Type II transposon

A

Multiple genes

38
Q

Pathogenicity islands

A

Encode virulence factors

39
Q

Mobile symbiosis islands

A

Enable a microbe to enter into symbiotic relationship

40
Q

Pseudo genes

A

Nonfunctional genes in the process of being eliminated
