What is the function of mRNA? correct answersCarries genetic info out of nucleus
Transcript translated to protein
What is the function of tRNA? correct answersCarries aa to ribosome
Anticodon pairs with codon on mRNA stran...
ORI sites correct answersnt sequence where replication is initiated
Topoisomerase I correct answersInduces ss breaks
,Remove DNA supercoils during TXN and DNA replication; for strand breakage during recombination; for
chr condensation; and to disentangle intertwined DNA during mitosis
topoisomerase II correct answerscuts both strands of one DNA double helix, passes another unbroken
DNA helix through it, and then reanneals the cut strands
Gyrase (topoisomerase II) correct answersUnwinds supercoiling caused by unwinding at the rep fork by
introducing DSBs
Helicase correct answersBreaks H-bonds of double helix at the replication fork
single-strand DNA binding proteins (SSBPs) correct answersBinds ssDNA and prevents it from re-
annealing during TXN, replication, repair, and recombination
Telomeres correct answersRepeat sequence (TTAGGG) at the ends of chr, protect chr from degradation
What does the incubation step in hybridization do? correct answersAllows formation of ds molecules
Formamide acts as a __________ in a hybridization. correct answersdenaturing agent
Line Probe Assay (LiPA) correct answersreverse hybridization assay using sequence-specific
oligonucleotide probes (reverse SSOP)
multi-parameter testing --> single strip
Single-Stranded Conformational Polymorphism Ananlysis (SSCP) correct answersUsed for known gene,
unknown mut
, Mutation screening
Short PCR products form 3D conformation when cooled --> muts have different conformation than WT
Non-denaturing PAGE, muts migrate different than WT
How does EtBr cause DNA to fluoresce? correct answersIntercalates into the double helix
Absorbs UV ~300 nm, emits ~600 nm

Bisulfite DNA sequencing/Methylation specific correct answers1. RE digest
2. Electrophorese and purify fragment of interest
3. Denature and incubate w/ sodium bisulfate (turns C>U, methylated C is unchanged)
4. clean, ppt, and resuspend
5. PCR --> sequence
6. Compare treated vs untreated, note where CG are not changed to TA
NASBA steps correct answers1. Hybridize oligo-T7P primer to target seq
2. RT/RNase H
3. Hybridize with target-specific oligo primer (P2)
4. RNA transcript of T7 RNA pol
