BIOL 2051 : EXAM 2
Document Summary
Most of the genetic info processes we know about were first studied in e. coli. These processes are highly conserved meaning that they are done pretty much the same way in all cells. Translation synthesis of rna from a dna template synthesis of proteins from mrna. Typically smaller than eukaryotes. genomic chromosomes, bacteria have extra pieces of dna in the cytoplasm called plasmids, they are pretty small. Allows for cell to live in certain environments. It can be transferred through a cell through pilli. Ag,ct. held together by hydrogen bonds (3 gc, 2 ct). deoxyribose nucleic acid. Other strand goes from 3,"5, this allows for the nitrogen"s. Linear chromosomes don"t supercoil, they wrap around histone proteins inside the to hold together. Supercoiled: this means that the circular pieces of dna are all fused together, prokaryote. 9/21/15 within one replication bubble, there are 4 dna polymerase iii in motion.
