For each of the following sequences, state which process, DNA
replication, transcription, RNA processing, or translation, is
affected most directlyby deleting the sequence below. You should
chose only one process for each sequence. (Section 15.4)
a. ori site
b. 3' splice site
c. poly(A) tail
d. terminator
e. start codon
f. –10 consensus seq
g. Shine-Dalgarno
Define protein-primed DNA replication.
Explain the general process of reverse transcription and
integration. Explain the role of tRNA in retrovirus genome
replication, the enzymatic activities of the reverse transcriptase
enzyme, and the function of the integrase enzyme.
Which of the following is most accurate about DNA replication
and transcription/translation (central dogma)?
Select one:
a. DNA replication and transcription/translation produce the
same molecules.
b. DNA replication occurs in some cells, while
transcription/translation occurs in virtually all cells.
c. The same enzyme is responsible for DNA replication and
transcription/translation.
d. DNA replication occurs in virtually all cells, while
transcription/translation occurs in some cells.
e. DNA replication occurs in somatic cells while
transcription/translation occurs only in gametes.
During the process of
[1"replication", 2"translation", 3"transcription",
"4RNA processing"] ______ , the anticodon on
the ["1amino acid",2 "ribosome", 3"tRNA",
4"mRNA"] _____ has to match the codon following
base-pairing rules to ensure the proper amino acid is being added
to the polypeptide sequence.
