Q

What’s the rule that says 1 to 1 ratio of pyrimidine to purine

A

Chargaff’s rule

24
Q

two strands are coiled around a common axis called

A

axis of symmetry

25
Q

what is the role of grooves

A

provide loading dock for DNA binding regulatory protein

26
Q

what are the dif structural forms of DNA

A

A means salt B means chromosomal Z means rare

27
Q

if DNA is stretched out it is x m long

A

1 meter

28
Q

telo vs centro-mere

A

T is DNA near end of chromosome; C is near center of chrom

29
Q

polymerase purpose

A

synthesize complementary sequence of each strand

30
Q

look at outline

A

n/a

31
Q

ssDNA is destroyed via enzyme

A

nuclease

32
Q

new strand is formed by what enzyme

A

DNA polymerase

33
Q

primase function; then function of product (involved in prokyarotic DNA replication)

A

makes RNA primer; this pairs to DNA template

34
Q

define primosome (prokaryotic DNA replication)

A

protein complex that displaces any proteins that have bound to unwound SS template like SSB

35
Q

describe DNA polymerase III (prok DNA replication)

A

DNA synthesis and mismatch repair

36
Q

Read: CFTR are either broken down or “”

A

n/a

37
Q

Peroxisomes rely on a chemical to do its work

A

H peroxide

38
Q

Peroxisome enzyme is; jobs

A

catalase; #1. inactivates toxic stuff by oxidizing them #2. breaks down excess H peroxide

39
Q

how are alcohol and drugs detoxified in the liver

A

catalase oxidizes them using H peroxide

40
Q

Peroxisome precursor vesicles arise from where

A

RER

41
Q

nickname for citric acid cycle

A

oxidative phosphorylation

42
Q

”” thru ATP synthase to “”

A

IMM thru ATP synthase to matrix

43
Q

describe what a SNARE looks like

A

straight line

44
Q

describe REL bt Golgi and ER

A

ER to Golgi

45
Q

Order thru which vesicles pass thru Golgi

A

cis, medial, trans

46
Q

role of Dynamin

A

cause the coated pit to pinch off to form coated vesicle

47
Q

Golgi products are stored as what

A

secretory vesicles

48
Q

read: co-translational entry into ER is entry into ER as translation is occuring

A

n/a

49
Q

transmembrane proteins have a signal called; purpose of it

A

stop transfer signal; discharge protein into membrane

50
Q

exo vs endo nuclease

A

exo removes nucleotides at end of DNA; endo removes nt from middle

51
Q
  • telomere is rich in what base
  • function of telomere
  • telomerase
  • -kind of transcriptase
  • -kind of template
  • -function
A
  • DNA that is G rich (found on end of DNA)
  • protects ssDNA from nuclease
  • reverse transcriptase with RNA template, used to base pair with telomere
52
Q

how does UV light affect genes

A

UV light -> dimerization of pyrimidines (CT) -> interfere with gene expression

53
Q

what’s the protective reasoning behind nucleoside analog?

A

nucleotide lacks 3’ OH group -> phosphodiester bond cannot be added -> DNA strand cannot be elongated

54
Q

Read: prokaryotes are simple things
therefore they use one enzyme for multiple functions, to save energy
its DNA polymerase ALSO does the work of an exonuclease

A

-

55
Q

AT CG

which is 2 H bonds? which is 3?

A

AT - 2

CG - 3
