________ (XP) is a rare autosomal recessive disease in humans.
topoisomerase
A(n) ________ is an enzyme that cuts DNA, allows it to unwind, and rejoins it.
Mismatch repair
________ is a form of error correction that cleans up errors introduced during DNA synthesis.
Telomerase
________ catalyzes the synthesis of DNA using an RNA template that is an integral part of the enzyme.
RNA primer
Once the ________ is removed and replaced by DNA, an enzyme called DNA ligase catalyzes the formation of a phosphodiester bond between the 3 and 5 ends of adjacent Okazaki fragments, closing up the backbone.
eukaryotic chromosome
The region at the end of a(n) ________ is called a telomere.
Deoxyribonucleotides
________ link together into a polymer when a hydroxyl group on the 3 'carbon of one deoxyribose and the phosphate group attached to the 5 carbon of another deoxyribose are joined by a covalent bond called a phosphodiester linkage, or phosphodiester bond.
gamete formation
Any cell not involved in ________ is a somatic cell.
exterior protein
During the infection, the ________ coat, or capsid, of the virus is left behind on the exterior of the host cell.
enzyme
A(n) ________ called telomerase replicates telomeric DNA.
bacterial cells
Like all organisms, ________ copy their entire complement of DNA，their genome, before every cell division.
potential energy of the deoxyribonucleotide monomers
The ________ is first raised by reactions that add two phosphate groups to form deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs)
replication fork
A(n) ________ is the Y- shaped region where the parental DNA double helix is separated into single strands and copied.
ability of DNA
The ________ polymerase to recognize and remove an incorrect deoxyribonucleotide is called proofreading.
Semiconservative replication
________: If the parental strands of DNA separated, each one could then be used as a template for the synthesis of a new daughter strand.
Mismatch repair
________ is the final layer of error detection and correction for errors introduced during DNA synthesis.
deoxyribonucleotide
Each ________ consists of a deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.
Semiconservative replication
If the parental strands of DNA separated, each one could then be used as a template for the synthesis of a new daughter strand
Conservative replication
If the bases of both strands temporarily turned out from the helix, they could serve as a template for the synthesis of an entirely new double helix all at once
Conservative replication
If the bases of both strands temporarily turned out from the helix, they could serve as a template for the synthesis of an entirely new double helix all at once.
Dispersive replication
This proposed that the parental double helix was fragmented into small pieces before replication and then each piece was replicated by either a conservative or semi conservative mechanism.
DNA polymerase
The initial breakthrough on DNA replication came with discovery of an enzyme called
Primer
A short strand of RNA called a primer that is base-paired to the DNA template
Phosphodiester linkage or Phosphodiester bond
Deoxyribonucleotides link together into a polymer when a hydroxyl group on the 3' carbon of one deoxyribose and the phosphate group attached to the 5’ carbon of another deoxyribose are joined by a covalent bond called a
Capsid
During the infection, the exterior protein coat, or capsid, of the virus is left behind on the exterior of the host cell
