1
New cards

Meselson & Stahl - Process

Grow E coli in N15 medium

Transfer to N14

CsCl centrifugation - days

Isotopes settle into bands

2

Meselson & Stahl - Findings

1st round - intermediate

2nd round - intermediate + light

Semiconservative

3
New cards

9 Step Process - Prokaryotes

ORI

Bubble + fork

Helicase

SSBP

RNA primers - primase

DNA polymerase III

Topoisomerase

Remove RNA primers - DNA polymerase I

DNA ligase

4
New cards

9 Step Process - Eukaryotes

ORI

Bubble + fork

Helicase

SSBP

RNA primers - DNA polymerase a

Pol e + d

Topoisomerase

Remove RNA primers - nucleases

Single strand binding

Hold strands apart

6
New cards

SSBP Units - Pro vs Eu

1 vs 3

7
New cards

Leading vs Lagging Synthesis - Eu

Polymerase epsilon vs delta

8
New cards

Topoisomerase

Prevent tangling

Relieve tension

Temporary breaks

9
New cards

DNA polymerase I - Prokaryotes

Remove RNA primers + replace with DNA

10
New cards

Telomeres

Repeated non coding DNA sequences at end of chromosomes

Protective buffer

11
New cards

End Replication Problem

Telomere shortens each replication

Hayflick limit - 70

12
New cards

Cancer Cells

Telomeres DO NOT shorten

Produce telomerase

Rolling circle

15
New cards

Model - Eu

Linear

16
New cards

Euchromatin

Loosely packed

17
