Document Summary

Dna primase (an rna polymerase) doesn"t need base paired ends. Uses ribonucleoside triphosphate to synthesise short rna primers. 10 nucleotides long, at intervals of 100-200 nucleotides in eukaryotes. Only added to leading strand at beginning, but continuously added to lagging. Primers less accurate 1 in 105 mistakes. Seen as suspect and removed by dna because they have ribose. When dna is opened up at origin, single strand dna acts as a template. Dna p needs a 3" end to start replication. Dna strands open up, helicase enters to push parental strands open, then dna primase (an rna polymerase doesn"t proofread/self-correct) enters. Replication started by an rna primer formed by an rna polymerase called dna primase. Every okazaki fragment needs a new primer. Rna primers remove due to high error rate. Lagging strand 3 additional enzymes needed for lagging strand synthesis- Nuclease recognises rna primer, chews away rna part, degrades rna primer. Repair dna polymerase replaces rna with dna.

Order the following steps of the DNA replication process fromfirst to last. (From 1 to 8)

DNA ligase joins Okazaki fragmments together

Elongation of leading strands occurs continuosly and elongationof lagging strands occurs via generation of Okazaki fragments. Bothare synthesized in 5' to 3' direction.

DNA polymerase I removes the RNA primers and replaces them withDNA nucleotides

DNA polymerase III starts adding DNA nucleotides to the 3' endof the existing RNA chain.

Helicase untwists the double helix at the replication fork

Single-stranded binding proteins bind the unpaired DNA strands,keeping them from re-pairing.

Topoisomerase helps releive the strain caused by DNA untwisting.It breaks, swivels and rejoins DNA strands.

Primase starts a complementary RNA chain using parental DNAstrand as a template

1) What is the difference between the leading strand and the lagging strand in DNA replication? Place the following steps of DNA replication in right chronological order.

1. Primase adds an ribonucleotide primer
2. Initiator proteins bind the origin of replication and helicase breaks hydrogen bonds between complementary bases of double stranded template DNA
3. DNA polymerase III extends by complementary base pairing deoxyribonucleotides to the template strands
4. Ligase phosphodiester bonds the nucleotides to connect okazaki fragments nad connect fragments at the origin and where the "crotches or forks" collide
5. DNA polymerase I removes RNA primer and replaces with Deoxyribonucleotides

2) Given the template DNA and primer sequences below, what bases will be added to the primer as DNA replication proceeds? (The bases should appear in the order that they will be added)

5'-GTCGTCTCCCTTTTTAAAAACCCCCCC-3'

Some Processes Involved in DNA Replication

1.The replication origin is identified.

2 DNA primase builds RNA primer.

3Okazaki fragments are spliced by DNA ligase.

4Helicases bind and uncoil the DNA double helix.

5 RNA primer is the starting point for DNA polymerase.

6 DNA replication ends at the telomere where DNA codes fortermination.

7 DNA polymerase adds complementary nucleotides in the 5' to 3'direction in short segments called Okazaki fragments.

The sequence in which the events numbered above occur during DNAreplication of the lagging strand: Number 1 - 7 in order.

I put: 1,4,2,5,7,3,6

Some Functions of Enzymes

Build DNA strands
Build RNA primers
Build mRNA strand
Cleave DNA strands
Splice Okazaki fragments

Enzyme:
Helicase :4
DNA ligase :5
RNA primase :1
RNA polymerase :3
DNA polymerase:2

Question 3:

like mRNA, tRNA has a ribose sugar, U instead of T, and issingle stranded. Unlike mRNA, which remains a long single strand ofnucleotides, tRNA folds so that some areas pair up.

The resulting structure has an anticodon on one end and a site foran amino acid to attach on the other end. There is basecomplementarity (A pairs with U and G pairs with C) between an mRNAcodon and tRNA anticodon.

If the amino acid tyrosine attaches to a tRNA, which of thefollowing anticodons could be at the opposite end of the tRNAmolecule?

Select one:

a. ATA and ATG

b. UAU and UAC

c. AUA and AUG

d. AGA and AGU

I picked B.
