DNA replication in eukaryotes |
bidirectional multiple origins of replication (ori) |
|
DNA replication in prokaryotes |
bidirectional -single origin of replication (ori) -2 forks -oposite directions |
|
DNAa protein |
how is ori selected????? -binds DNA in ori |
|
DNA polymerase |
catalyzes DNA synthesis in 5' to 3' direction for replication |
|
template, dNTPs, primer with OH group (usually RNA) |
what does DNA polymerase need for replication |
|
SSB |
single stranded DNA binding proteins for replication |
|
DNA primase |
priming DNA with RNA primer for replication |
|
helicase |
breaks H bonds for replication |
|
DNA topoisomerase II |
aka DNA gyrase -unwinds DNA, cuts one DNA and passes the other through gap -seals gap -target for quinolone antibodies -for replication |
|
RNA pol I |
removes primers and fills in for replication |
|
ligase |
sealing enzyme for replication |
|
RNA pol |
core and sigma factors -opens and unwinds DNA for transcription |
|
sigma factors |
proteins, direct core to promoters |
|
rifampin |
antibiotic that targets bacterial RNA polymerase |
|
shine delgarno sequence
|
important role in aligning RNA in transcription |
|
terminator |
DNA sequence that encodes RNA stem loop structure, causes RNA pol release DNA sequence that encodes RNA pol to pause |
|
rho |
after terminator sequence, this protein catches up and causes RNA pol release |
|
sensor kinase and response regulator |
bacteria use this two component signal transduction system to control gene transcription in response to their environments |
|
sensor kinase |
embedded into plasma membrane -responds to change in environment -autophosphorylation using ATP in response to signal at histidine bacterial transcription |
|
response regulator |
in cytoplasm -phosphorylated..binds to promoter region bacterial transcription |
|
eukaryotic transcription |
in nucleus -3 RNA pol -transcription factors -TATA box -RNA splicing to remove introns -capping and tails |
|
TATA box |
promoter element in eukaryotic transcription |
|
5' cap |
methylguanosine added to 5' end in eukaryotic transcription |
|
polyadenylation |
adenine NTs added at the 3' end (tail) |
|
translation |
synthesis of polypeptide directed by mRNA synthesis -requires ribosomes and energy in the form of ATP and GTP |
|
bacterial ribosome |
2 subunits -- 30S and 50S |
|
30S |
21 proteins and 16S rRNA |
|
50S |
34 proteins and 23S and 5S rRNA |
|
sedimentation coefficient |
what does s stand for in 30S and 50S |
|
23S |
peptidyltransferase -ribozyme -catalyzes the peptide bond joining of AA in translation |
|
16S |
aligns mRNA with ribosome -has sequence complementary to shine delgarno sequence of mRNA |
|
ribesomes |
site of protein synthesis |
|
codon |
3 nucleotides 64 of these 61 specify specific AAs (sense) 3 are stop (nonsense) |
|
degenerate |
code is ___. multiple codons can encode the same AA |
|
AUG (met) |
start codon |
|
UAA UGA UAG |
stop codons you fkn dumb ass |
|
tRNA molecules |
convert language of mRNA into protein -clover leaf shaped -2 functional regions |
|
3' end and anticodon |
2 functional regions of tRNA |
|
3' End |
synthetase enzyme attaches an AA here (ATP required) in tRNA |
|
anticodon |
complementary to codon in mRNA |
|
initiation |
translation 1. shine delgarno sequence hybridizes with 16S rRNA of ribosome 2. tRNA with formethylionine binds to start codon in P site |
|
elongation |
translation 1. tRNA and AA binds to A site 2. peptide bond joins AAs 3. ribosome moves 1 codon along mRNA 4. empty tRNA moves from P to E |
|
tetracycline |
inhibits tRNA and AA binding to A site |
|
release factors |
cleave and release polypeptide in termination step of translation after stop codon |
|
