Q

2 things about single strand binding protein

A
  1. prevents PARENTAL STRANDS REANNEALING (reconnection)

  2. dna polymerase III
  3. dna polymerase I
  4. ligase
18
Q

3 functions about PRIMASE

A
  1. lay down RNA PRIMERS
  2. reads 3’->5’
  3. synthesize 5’ ->3’
19
Q

direction of LEADING STRAND

A

3’->5’

20

5’ -> 3’

21
Q

5 things about DNA POLYMERASE III

A
  1. needs 3’ oh of RNA PRIMER
  2. READ 3’-> 5’
  3. synthesize 5’-> 3’
  4. has PROOF READING FUNCTION
  5. EXONUCLEASE ACTIVITY (for complementary base nucleotide)
22
Q

2 things about OKAZAKY FRAGMENTS

A
  1. multiple RNA primers
    2.multiple DNA primers
23
Q

4 things about DNA polymerases I

A
  1. READ 3’-> 5’
  2. synthesize 5’-> 3’
  3. PROOF READING FUNCTION
  4. EXONUCLEASE ACTIVITY (for RNA primers)
24
Q

differance between DNA POLY 3 and 1

A

Direction of EXONUCLEASE ACTIVITY
POLY 3= 3’-> 5’
POLY 1= 5’-> 3’

25
Q

function of lygase

A

fuse DNA end together of OKAZAKY FRAGMENTS

26
Q

2 things about TELOMERES

A
  1. = ends of cromosomes
  2. do not code for DNA
27
Q

why dna become shorther during a lot of replication

A

because telomeres (ends of cromoses ) do not code for RNA so they sacrificare themself4
