1
New cards

topoisomerase/gyrase

inserts and removes supercoils by nicking far from the replication fork

2
New cards

transposable elements

small segments of DNA that can rearrange on the same or different DNA molecule

3
New cards

oriC

origin of replication; A-T rich

4
New cards

replicon

part of chromosome that contains oriC

5
New cards

DNA-A

binds to oriC to open double helix

6
New cards

helicase

rips apart H binds at the replication fork

7
New cards

primase

DNA-dependent RNA-polymerase; places primers to initiate replication

8
New cards

DNA polymerase III

lays down NA

9
New cards

DNA polymerase I

remove primers and fills in NA gaps on lagging strand

10
New cards

ligase

form phosphate backbone

11
New cards

FtsZ

pinches apart DNA at terminus
