Cards

Term
DOUBLE HELIX STRUCTURE
Definition
DNA MOLECULE HAS A SUGAR PHOSPHATE BACKBONE WITH BASE PAIRING AND IS TWISTED.
Term
DNA REP STEP 1
Definition
HELICASE UNWINDS
Term
DNA REP STEP 2
Definition
POLYMERASE ASSEMBLES A COMPLEMENTARY NEW STRAND ON EACH, MAKING TWO.
Term
DNA REP STEP 3
Definition
DNA LIGASE ATTACHES ONE NEW STRAND TO THE REPLICATED SEGMENT. HELICASE UNWINDS TO ANOTHER SEGMENT.
Term
TRANSCRIPTION 1
Definition
RNA POLYMERASE BINDS TO ONE DNA DOUBLE HELIX.
Term
TRANSCRIPTION 2
Definition
AS RNA POLYMERASE GOES ALONG DNA IT COPIES IT, AND PAIRS WITH COMPLEMANTARY RNA.
Term
TRANSCRIPTION 3
Definition
DNA WINDS TOGETHER.
Term
TRANSLATION 1
Definition
TRNA OCCUPIES SITE ON THE RIBOSOME.
Term
TRANSLATION 2
Definition
TRNA BINDS TO SITE WITH ANTICODON COMPLEMANTARY TO THE MRNA
Term
TRANSLATION 3
Definition
RIBOSOME MOVES 3 NUCLEOTIDES TO THE RIGHT AND AMINCO ACID IS TRANSFERRED TO SECOND AMINO ACID P SITE.
Term
TRANSLATION 4
Definition
THE INITIATING TRNA LEAVES RIBOSOME AT THE E SITE, TRNA ENTERS A SITE.
Term
EXON
Definition
CODING NUCLEOTIDES
Term
INTRONS
Definition
NONCODING REGION.
Term
MRNA PROCESS.
Definition
PRODUCES RNA, TRANSCRIPT IS PROCESSED, ENZYMES TAKE OUT INTRONS AND JOIN EXONS AND FORM MATURE TRANSCRIPTION.
Term
MUTATION
Definition
A RANDOM CHANGE IN THE NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE.
Term
GERM LINE TISSUE MUTATION
Definition
CELLS DESTINED TO FORM GAMETES ARE SEGREGATED FROM OTHER CELLS.
Term
SOMATIC TISSUE MUTATION
Definition
IF A MUTATION OCCURS WHERE THERE ARE DIFFERENT ALLELE COMBINATIONS AVAILABLE. NOT PASSED ON, DRASTIC EFFECT ON INDIVIDUAL.
Term
ALTERING DNA SEQUENCE
Definition
MUTATION THE IN THE MESSAGE ITSELFT PRODUCING ALTERATIONS OF DNA.
Term
GENE MANIPULATION LEAD TO
Definition
PEST PROOF PLANTS, CURING DISEASE, PRODUCING INSULING.
Term
TRANSGENIC ORGANISM
Definition
COMPOSED OFF TWO DIFFERENT SPECIES.
Term
PLASMIDS
Definition
TINY CIRCLES OF BACTERIA DNA, CARRY FOREIGN DNA TO CELLS.
Term
PCR
Definition
POLYMERASE CHAIN REACTION. PROCEDURE USED TO AMPLIFY AMOUNTS OF DNA SAMPLES.
Term
DNA FINGERPRINTING
Definition
EXAMINE DNA SAMPLES, SIMILIAR TO ELECTROPHORESIS.
Term
CDNA
Definition
MRNA THAT HAS ONLY EXONS, USED TO BUILD GENES FROM MRNA
Term
HUMAN GENES IN BACTERIA
Definition
BACTERIA GROWS CHEAPLY,LARGE AMOUNTS OF PROTEIN CAN BE CONTROLLED.
Term
HARMFUL CONSEQUENCES OF GENETICALLY ENGINEERING
Definition
ECOLOGICAL EFFECTS,SAFETY OF FOOD,PUBLIC UNEASE ABOUT FOOD,ANIMAL IS NOT AS HEALTHY SIZEWISE.
Term
GENOME
Definition
GENETIC INFORMATION OF AN ORGANISM
Term
GENOMICS
Definition
STUDY OF GENOMES RATHER THAN INDIVIDUAL GENES.
Term
DNA SEQUENCE
Definition
ADDING COMPLEMENTARY BASES TO SINGLE SIDED FRAGMENT, ELECTROPHORESIS, SCAN DNA,DATA SHOW SMALL SECTION OF GENOME
Term
SNP
Definition
LOW RATE OF MUTATION, GOOD FOR HUMAN HISTORY AND EVOLUTION.
Term
MICROARRAY
Definition
SMALL GLASS SQUARES WITH MILLIONS OF STRANDS OF DNA. USED TO FIGURE OUT IF PERSON HAS GENETIC MUTATION OR DISEASE.
Term
AAV VECTOR
Definition
CURED ANEMIA IN MONKEYS, CURED DOGS OF HEREDITARY BLINDESS
Term
VECTOR
Definition
FORM OF TRANSPORTATION FROM OUTSIDE TO INSIDE HOST CELL.
