..... The concentration of three different aminoacyl-tRNA
synthetases, associated with three different amino acids, are found
in much lower than normal concentrations in the cytosol of an
animal cell. In your own words, describe how this may impact the
rate of A) translation, and B) the citric acid cycle. Explain your
reasoning for each. Please clearly label your responses as A) and
B).

aminoacyl-tRNA-synthetases to form between amino acids and
tRNAs?
Select one:
A.
Hydrogen bond
B.
Salt bridge
C.
Peptide bond

codon?
Select one:
A. Phosphate
B. Formyl
C. N-acetyl

6. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyses _____ 1. DNA replication
2. transcriptional termination 3. the attachment of amino acids to
the tRNA molecules. 4. the binding of mRNA to the 30S subunit. 5.
the removal of the polypeptide from tRNA in the P site and
transferal to the amino acid at the A site 7. If the strand
“5'-TACGCCT-3'” is a template strand, what would the mRNA strand
look like? 1. 5'-AGGCGUA-3' 2. 3'-AUGCGGA-5' 3. 3'-ATGCGGA-5' 4.
5'-AGGCGTA-3' 5. 5'-UGGCGTU-3' 8. A...
An aminoacyl-tRNA exhibits which one of the following
characteristics?
A.
It is produced by a synthetase that is specific for the amino
acid, but not the tRNA
B.
It is composed of an amino acid esterified to the 5’ end of the
tRNA
C.
It requires GTP for its synthesis from an amino acid and a
tRNA
D.
It contains an anticodon that is complementary to the codon for
the amino acid
Concerning generation of ATP from glucose during
glycolysis...
How do chromosome movements differ between meiosis I and meiosis
II? Is spindle composition the basis for this distinction? Compare
cohesin function during mitosis and meiosis.
5. Briefly explain how aminoacyl tRNA synthases produces
activated amino acids.
6. Explain the difference in polycistronic and monocistronic
mRNAs.
7. Briefly explain the initiation phase of translation.
8. How does the termination of translation occur?
i) How does gene regulation in
prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells.
ii) Outline how the same type of
control system could be used to regulation the leucine biosynthesis
pathway.
