What happens during the initiation of DNA replication?

Spotting the origin of replication, unwinding of strands, creating a replication fork

What protein transcribes the DNA sequence into the messenger RNA?

RNA Polymerase

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: Anticodon - UAA

ISOLEUCINE

What is transcription?

process of transferring one strand of DNA into an mRNA

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: DNA SEQUENCE - CTC

GLUTAMIC ACID

It refers to the flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to Proteins

Central Dogma

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: DNA SEQUENCE - ATG

TYROSINE

Who discovered the transposons or jumping genes?

Barbara McClintock

Who are the two scientists who confirmed that DNA, not protein, was the genetic material?

Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: Codon - CAA

GLUTAMINE

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: Codon - GUC

VALINE

What is the difference between the lagging strand and leading strand in terms of DNA polymerization?

The leading strand is continuous while the lagging strand is discontinuous

What the contribution of Friedrich Miescher in the discovery of DNA?

Identified the "nuclein" isolated from the pus in used bandages

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: Anticodon - ACA

CYSTEINE

What is the difference between DNA and RNA in terms of their complementary bases?

DNA - Adenine pairs with Thymine, RNA - Adenine pairs with Uracil

Why is the human DNA replication is considered semi-conservative?

50% original, 50% replicate

It unzips the parental DNA stands by breaking the hydrogen bonds between them

Helicase

What are the three components of a nucleotide?

Sugar, Phosphate group, Nitrogenous Base

What organism was used by Joachim Hammerling in his experiments?

Acetabularia, a single-celled algae

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: DNA SEQUENCE - UGA

THREONINE

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: DNA SEQUENCE - AAG

PHENYLALANINE

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: Anticodon - UUU

LYSINE

What is the difference between introns and exons?

Exons the sequences that are expressed and introns are sequences that are cut off from the mRNA

What is the "Transformation Principle" by Frederick Griffith?

The non-pathogenic strain transform into a pathogenic strain due to the horizontal genetic transfer

IDENTIFY THE AMINO ACID: Anticodon - GGU
