BIOL 1500 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Dna Polymerase, Goanna, G1 Phase
Document Summary
Unwinding ( helicase ) initiation ( primer ) elongation ( dna polymerase ) We can make more cells , by replicating dna. In prokaryotes , as cell grows it replicates its dna , binary ssion. In eukaryotes , pause phase ( g0 ) , interphase ( g1 phase , s phase and g2 phase ) in eukaryotes naked dna wraps nucleosomes ( groups of histone proteins ) Chromosomes : coiled version of dna. ( we have 46 ) ( sperm = 23 , egg = 23 ) ( prokaryotes : circular piece of dna ) gene : the sequence in dna that codes for particular dna. Transcription : rna molecules that is complementary to dna -> two strands follow the dna base , anti-parallel > similiar to dna , uracil instead of thymine. A - u , c - g , -> sugar , ribose -> mrna ( messenger ) , rrna (
