Name:______
DNA
- a change in genotype and phenotype due to contact with material from another bacterium
- Experiment showing that DNA (not Protein) is the genetic information
- Rule stating that proportions of A and T are equal and C and G are equal but amounts of each pair may vary
- She used X-ray diffraction on DNA which helped Watson discover the shape of DNA
- Bonds that link the 5' C of one nucleotide to the 3' C of another
- term describing the complementary nature of DNA (one strand: 3'-->5' other strand: 5'-->3')
- Correct DNA replication model: Replicated DNA strands consist of one parent strand and one daughter strand
- term describing the way one strand can be used to create the other strand
- Incorrect DNA replication model that strates that all DNA strands will contain parts of the parent DNA in mixed pieces
- Incorrect DNA replication model that states that all DNA will remain in the parent DNA molecule and that all replicated DNA strands will only contain copied DNA strands
- another name for 'origin of replication': where H-bonds are originally broken to begin copying
- the term for the open area of DNA wher a complementary strand is being added from the inside out
- term for the Y-shaped area next to the area of DNA replication that continually gets shifted as DNA copying progresses
- enzyme that "unzips" DNA by breaking H bonds between base pairs
- enzyme that corrects "overwinding" ahead of the replication fork (i.e. helps with strain on unwinding sections of DNA during replication)
- enzyme that creates a RNA primer for the 5' end of the leading strand and 5' end of each Okazaki fragment
- DNA polymerase that continually synthesizes the leading strand
- DNA polymerase that repairs damage to DNA
- DNA polymerase that replaces primers: removes primer from the 5' end of the leading strand and Okazaki fragments Fragments created from segments of the lagging strand
- Fragments created from segments of the lagging strand
- strand that copies from the 3'-->5' direction
- strand that copies from the 5'-->3' direction
- DNA polymerase that joins Okazaki Fragments together
- Repeated DNA pattern of TTAGGG at the end of DNA that acts as a "cap" with a portion getting cut off with each generation
- enzyme that rebuilds the DNA "cap" to keep it from shortening-- present in malignant cancer cells and male germ cells
- general type of enzyme that repairs double-stranded breaks in DNA
- Cell death when cells stop dividing
- information that specifies polypeptide structure
- shape of DNA
