Midterm Proteins Flashcards
E3
Ubiquitin ligase
Hsp90
molecular chaperone, respond to cell stress, less common
RAG1/RAG2
used in assembly of immunoglobulin gene, domesticated transposones
BiP
ER resident molecular chaperone
KU80/KU70
heterodimer that binds ends of dsDNA in order to make them blunt, part of NHEJ
UPR
happens when too many proteins are not folded properly
SV40
virus studied in DNA polymerization
TriC
eukaryotic chaperonin protein
RPA
single-strand binding protein
MSH2/MSH6
recognize mismatched DNA in newly synthesized strands
SAR
region of DNA which associates with scaffold (non-plant)
Tublin
most common microskeleton protein
dsDNA
double stranded DNA
E1
Ubiquitin activating enzyme
MCM
eukaryote helicase
LINE
long interspersed nuclear elements
PCNA
prevents complex from disassociating from the strand
Trypsin
protease used before mass spectrometry
GST
popular affinity combination, used with gluthathione agarose
RFC
loads DNA polymerase on strand
MLH1 and PMS2
dimer, part of MMR, recognizes and cuts new strand
DNA glycosylase
strips base off of nucleotide sugar
MAR
plant region of DNA which associates with scaffold
ddNTP
dideoxyribonucleoside triphosphate
BER
base excision repair
BOLD
database used for DNA barcoding
PrP
protein that can form plaque in non-conformer state
DNA-PK
DNA dependent protein kinase, part of NHEJ
GTPase
uses GTP as on switch
BRCA-1/BRCA-2
genes on which mutations are often linked to cancer
Primase
forms RNA primer
DnaJ
works in concert with Hsp70, also known as Hsp40
IDP
type of protein domain typical of triggers
RecA
inverts strand during HR in bacteria
Topoisomerase
relieves torsional stress in dsDNA
APE1
cuts phosphodiester bond off abasic site
mtDNA
mitochondrial DNA
TSD
transposon repeats on the target site
FEN 1
helps ribonuclease H
Helicase
denatures dsDNA at replication fork
H3
histone protein which has a specialized form involved with centromeres
GAP
turns GTPase off
