Test your basic knowledge |

First Aid: Biochemistry Molecular

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Create a nick in the helix to relieve supercoils created during replication






2. ATP- AMP (2 phosphoanhydride bonds)






3. H1






4. Neurons






5. Particular sequnece in genomre where DNA replication begins. May be single (prokaryotes) or multiple (eukaryotes)






6. Prophas - metaphase - anaphase telophase






7. Cilia - glagella - mitotic spindle - neurons - centrioles






8. Even 40S 60S =80S






9. Elastase






10. No proofreading function but can initiate chains. RNA poymerase II opens DNA at promoter site






11. Intervening noncoding segments of DNA






12. Responsible for the accuracy of amino acid selection






13. CUT 1 ring Cut the Py






14. Antigout - acts on mts






15. Anit helminth - act on microtubules






16. In the nucleus after transcitpion and only processed RNA is transporte out of the nucleus






17. Makes an RNA primer on which DNA polymerase II can initiate replication






18. Unwinds DNA template at replication fork






19. Prokaryotic only. Degrades RNA primer and fills in the gap with DNA (5 prime to 3 prime exonuclease)






20. 1) primary transcript combines with snRNPs and other proteins to form spliceosome 2) lariat shaped intermediate is generated 3) Lariat is removed and released to precisely join 2 exons






21. Stretch of DNA that alters gene expression by binding transcription factors






22. Microvilli - muscle contraction - cytokinesis - adhering juntions






23. Splicing out of introns






24. A site - incoming aminoacyl tRNA - Psite accomodates growing Peptide - E site holds EmplytRNA as it exits






25. Blocks denovo purine synthesis






26. Activated by GTP hydrolosis initiation factors help assembel the 40 S ribosomal subunites with the initiatior tRNA and are released whent he mRNA and the ribosomal subunit assemple with the complex






27. Neuroglia






28. Changed aaconservative - new aa is similar in chemical structure






29. Neurons - skeletal - and cardiac muscle - RBCs






30. P53 and RB normally inhibit g1 to S progression






31. Close to - far from or even within (in an intron) the gene whose expression it regulates






32. (A - G) 2 rings Pure As Gold






33. Three amino acids necessary for purine synthesis= glutamine - aspartate and glycine






34. Base + ribose






35. Enter G1 from G0 when stimulated Hepatocytes/lymphocytes






36. Inhbits RNA pol II (found in death cap mushrooms)






37. Remain in G0 regenerate from stem cells






38. You glyucosolate hte pro - alpha chain lysine resudens and form procollagen (triple helix of alpha chains)






39. Bind 30S subunit preventing attachment of aminoacyl - tRNA






40. Specific glycosylases recognize and remove damaged bases - AP endonuclease cuts DNA at pyrimidne site - empty sugar is removed and the gap is filled and resealed






41. Faulty collagen synthesis causing 1) hyperextensible skin 2) tendency to bleed 3) hypermobile joints






42. Type III






43. Inhibit DNA gyrase (specific prokaryotic topoisomerase)






44. Different exons can be combined to make nique protiens in different times






45. Non homologous end joining






46. Site of dteroid synthesis and detoxification of druigs and poisons (liver hepatocytes and steroid horomore adrenal cortex)






47. Checkpoints control transition between phases of cell cycle. regulated by cyclins - CDKs and tumor suppressors. Mitosis (shortest phse)






48. Made from IMP precursor






49. Prevents stranges from reannealing






50. Made from orogate precuror with PRPP added later
