1
New cards
What phase does DNA replication happen during?
interphase → s phase
2
New cards
What does the s in s phase stand for?
synthesis
3
New cards
DNA replication is necessary during ___ *___*___to ensure that the daughter cells get the ____ set of the parental _____.
cell division/full/genome
4
New cards
What kind of reaction is DNA replication?
chemical
5
New cards
Which enzyme split the double helix by breaking hydrogen bonds to separate the two strands of DNA?
helicase
6
New cards
What bonds does helicase break?
hydrogen
7
New cards
Which enzyme moves ahead of helicase and makes small breaks in hydrogen bonds to prevent DNA from supercoiling and breaking?
topoisomerase/gyrase
8
New cards
What does DNA become when it supercoils? (tough or fragile)
fragile
9
New cards
What enzyme does topoisomerase move ahead of?
helicase
10
New cards
What are the bonds holding together nucleotides vertically?
phosphodiester bonds
11
New cards
What are the bonds holding together nucleotides horizontally?
hydrogen bonds
12
New cards
What is the area called where there is a lot of A=T?
origin of replication
13
New cards
What is it called when the third carbon of a nucleotide is free?
3 prime/3’
14
New cards
What is it called when the fifth carbon of a nucleotide is free?
5 prime/5’
15
New cards
What is the diagram of DNA replication called?
replication fork
16
New cards
Which enzyme brings RNA nucleotides to make a primer on to which DNA nucleotides can be added?
RNA primase
17
New cards
Which enzyme bring DNA nucleotides complementary to the template strand and adds to the primer?
DNA polymerase 3
18
New cards
What form prime wise is the template strand?
3’ to 5’
19
New cards
What form prime wise is the new replicated strand?
5’ to 3’
20
New cards
What does DNA polymerase not do which might lead to mishaps?
go back and proof read the combinations of purine+pyrimidine
21
New cards
What enzyme replaces RNA primer with DNA nucleotides?
DNA polymerase 1
22
New cards
What enzyme adds a phosphate group to join the okazaki fragments and any other lose nucleotide to create a continuous new strand?
DNA ligase
23
New cards
What are the multiple strands called when a continuous 3’ to 5’ template strand isn’t available?
okazaki fragments
24
New cards
What doe okazaki fragments make up?
lagging strand
25
New cards
What is the continuous 3’-5’ template strand called?
leading strand
26
New cards
In a lagging strand the okazaki fragment closest to which prime is built first?
5’
