ASCP Molecular Biology Exam Prep Questions and Answers 100% correct
Pyrimidine - answer one carbon ring
Cytosine, Thymine, Uracil
Purine - answer two carbon rings
Adenine, Guanine
How are nucleotides joined together? - answer condensation
What does mRNA do? - answer carries code out of cell. code for protein structure. DNA to ribosomes
end of transcription start of translation
What does tRNA do? - answer decodes mRNA. Matches amino acids to mRNA code. Protein synthesis
What does rRNA do? - answer part of ribosome structure
most abundant RNA
coordinated coupling of tRNA to mRNA codons
Feedback Inhibition - answer end product of pathway is noncompetitive inhibitor
binds to allosteric site to slow down rxn b/c too much product
Exonucleases - answer degrades nucleic acids by removing one terminal nucleotide at a time
cleaves phosphodiester bond at end of chain
5' ---> 3' and 3' ---> 5'
Endonucleases - answer cleaves phoshpodiester bonds w/in chain
recognition site is palindromic sequence
cleaves unevenly, leaves sticky ends
(restriction enzymes)
DNA polymerase III - answer copies DNA by reading existing strand, builds new comp. strand
always adds to 3' end
can't start new strand on its own (ORI sites)
ORI sites - answer origin of replication on chromosome
triggers DNA replication gyrase - answer unwinds DNA in front of fork
DNA polymerase I - answer removes RNA nucleotides form RNA primers and replaces with DNA (makes sure primers that start replication are removed)
helicase - answer breaks H-bonds of double helix
topoisomerase - answer breaks/ reseals DNA backbone to release tension caused by twisting
(DNA gyrase)
primase - answer (RNA pol)
primers, small RNA, serves as starting points for copying DNA helper enzyme for DNA pol III
single-strand DNA-binding proteins (SSBPs) - answer hold DNA open during replication
Okazaki fragments - answer lagging strand
3' ---> 5'
away from fork
DNA pol III adds, DNA ligase closes gaps
Ligase - answer closes gaps in DNA
forms covalent bonds b/w nucleotides, 3' end of new DNA to 5' end of growing chain
What are the steps in DNA replication? - answer 1. Initiate
2. Elongate
3. Terminate
Telomers - answer cap ends of chromosome during replication to preserve DNA
-10 box - answer TATA box (TATAAT)
located 10 bases away from transcription start site
promoter
RNA pol binding site
-35 box - answer TTGACA
located 35 bases away from transcription start site
promoter
RNA Polymerase - answer opens double helix
reads one strand to make RNA, 3' --> 5' (antiparallel)
DNA-dependant
catalyzes formation of covalent bonds b/w nucleotide and growing chain
