Biology DNA Review Flashcards

1
Q

Nucleosome Structure

A

Eight histone proteins wrapped twice by DNA. DNA that connects Nucleosomes are linkers. One histone “sealing” nucleosome.

Q

Unique Single Copy vs Highly Repetetive sequences.

A

Unique = exons. Repetetive = introns. Unique code for proteins while repetetive do not.

Seals nick with suger-phosphate bond.

17
Q

Transcription occurs in a ____ to ____ direction

A

5’ to 3’

18
Q

Promoter Region

A

DNA sequences where transcription factors bind and recruit RNA Polymerase to synthesize RNA.

19
Q

tRNA-activating enzyme

A

tRNA activating enzyme binds amino acid to specific tRNA using amino acid.

20
Q

Ribosome Structure

A

Proteins and rRNA make up the structure. 3 zones for tRNA. Large and small subunits.

21
Q

Translocation

A

Moving of tRNA from A to P site.
