Q

G1 phase (DNA packaging)

A

https: //www.youtube.com/v/9kQpYdCnU14
- heterochromatin- regions not being transcribed= easier to compact
- euchromatin- cant be packaged as tightly because the code is still needed
- Dna is packaged by being wrapped around histones

Q

S Phase

A

semi-conservative=1 original dna strand in each new chromosome

  • Requires
    1. an original dna strand to copy
    2. monomers to make a copy
    3. dna polymerase to do the copying

Q

what are two problems with DNA Polymerase

A

cannot start a new chain of nucleotides-only extend existing chain
-can only extend towards 3’ end

Q

prokaryote replication

A

single circular chromosome
-begins at origin of replication
outside circle replicates at 5’->3’ and inner circle works 5->3 in opposite direction.

Q

how does Procaryote cell division work

A

divide by binary fission

-build new cell inside then create a wall in between (septum) and pinch off at the septum

Q

explain eukaryotic replication

A

two linear strands are pulled apart by helicase and proteins are attached that leave them separated. then dna polymerase binds a second strand from 5’->3’

Q

replisomes

A
enzymes envolved in DNA replication
helicase-pulls dna apart
topolsomerse- ensures dna doesnt get coiled
DNA Polymerase
RNA Primase

eukaryote DNA Relication

A

19
Q

telomerase

A

http://www.youtube.com/v/AJNoTmWsE0s
since dna is unable to complete on the lagging stand, telomeres come in and input their own code to complete the last part of the lagging strand

20
Q

DNA Repair

A

error during s phase are possible. although dna polymerase has a proofreading ability it still makes mistakes
specific repair mechanisms- fix only certain damages
-nonspecific= repairs multiple kinds of mutations

21
Q

photorepair

A

damage by UV light
UV causes adjacent thyamines to detach from adenine and attach to each other instead
-enzyme called photolyase uses remaining light to fix the broken bonds

22
Q

excision repair

A
excise=take away
3 steps
1. recognize damage
2. remove damaged area
3. resynthesize using exposed template
23
Q

End of s Phase

A

karyotype is doubled
2 identical verions of the same chromosomes= chromatids
held together by proteins at the centromere
-attach to cytoskeleton at kinetochores

24
Q

how many dna strands are in a chromatid

A

2

25
Q

after s phase

A

cell enters g2 phase

  • increased number of organelles
  • replicate centrioles
  • once chromosomes are visible you are in the m phase (mitosis)
26
Q

name the 5 stages of mitosis

A
  1. prophase
  2. prometaphase
  3. metaphase
  4. anaphase
  5. telophase
    https: //www.youtube.com/v/cvlpmmvB_m4
27
Q

prophase (mitosis)

A
  1. chromosome becomse slightly visible
  2. nuclear membrane starts to break down
  3. centrioles move to opposite poles
28
Q

prometaphase

A

centrioles attach to chromosomes

-chromosomes begin to move to center

29
Q

metaphase

A

chromosomes align along the center

30
Q

anaphase

A

chromosomes begin to be pulled apart from the center to opposite poles

31
Q

telophase

A

nuclear membrane reforms and chromosomes cluster towards opposite poles

32
Q

cytokinesis

A

cleavage of cell forms into equal halves

line in cell= cytokinesis

33
Q
  1. G1/s checkpoint (3 Checkpoints)
A

the point where the cell decides to divide

-is there enough for 2 cells?

34
Q
  1. g2/m checkpoint (3 Checkpoints)
A

checks to see if there are enough organelles made for replication

35
Q
  1. late metaphase checkpoint (3 Checkpoints)
A

checks to see if all chromosomes are attached to the spindle

36
Q

growth factors

A

tells cell to increase number of organelles

-overrides checkpoints

37
Q

cancer

A

uncontrolled growth of cells\

-failure of cell cycle control

38
Q

proto-oncogenes (mutation of this gene causes cancer)

A

protein that allows regular cell division

-if this mutates the gene is stuck in the on position and continues to make cells

39
Q

tumor-supressor genes (mutation of this gene causes cancer)

A

these are proteins that inhibit cell division
they also correct mutations, without them tumors will continue to grow

40
Q

cell death

A
apoptosis= controlled cell division
necrosis= accidental cell death
