Zusammenfassung der Ressource

Frage 1

Frage
Which property is not essential for the origin of life?
Antworten
  • The need to store information
  • The need to duplicate information
  • The need to change information
  • The need to make proteins
  • The need to convert into favorable reactions

Frage 2

Frage
Why is it thought that ribozymes are likely to be a legacy from an ancestral RNA world?
Antworten
  • They are more stable than RNAs
  • When they act, they require the presence of protein cofactors
  • They act without the participation of protein cofactors.
  • They can be made spontaneously without a DNA template.
  • They are made by proteins

Frage 3

Frage
What was probably the first carrier of genetic information in primitive organisms?
Antworten
  • DNA that could self-replicate
  • Proteins
  • Polypeptides
  • RNA that could self-replicate
  • Lipids

Frage 4

Frage
________ can be used to purify transcription activator proteins
Antworten
  • Gel mobility shift assays
  • DNA affinity chromatography
  • Centrifugation
  • DNA footprinting
  • ChIP assays

Frage 5

Frage
Sequence specific DNA binding proteins frequently have a region that binds in the major groove because:
Antworten
  • It is smaller
  • It contains sequence specific information
  • The minor groove is not available
  • It is positively charged
  • It is negatively charged

Frage 6

Frage
The following secondary structures are known to specifically interact with DNA (select all that apply):
Antworten
  • Alpha helix
  • Beta sheet
  • Unstructured loops
  • Double helix

Frage 7

Frage
What happens at the lac operon in the absence of glucose and presence of lactose?
Antworten
  • No expression
  • Low expression
  • The lac repressor binds the promoter
  • High expression
  • The CAP protein doesn't bind to the promoter

Frage 8

Frage
Multiple binding sites for a repressor is advantageous because:
Antworten
  • There are too many repressors in cells
  • DNA must be bent to allow transcription
  • Repressors are only active when bound to many sites at once
  • This increases the effective concentration of the repressor
  • Repressors need multiple binding sites to bind ligands

Frage 9

Frage
An operator is:
Antworten
  • A protein
  • A protein binding site
  • The same as a promoter
  • A type of repressor
  • The start site for RNA synthesis

Frage 10

Frage
Mammalian x-chromosome inactivation:
Antworten
  • Occurs only in humans
  • Prevents females from being mosaics
  • Is not necessary
  • Is necessary for dosage compensation
  • Only occurs in males

Frage 11

Frage
CpG islands are generally found in
Antworten
  • Inactive genes
  • Introns
  • Exons
  • Promoters of constantly active genes
  • Promoters of rarely expressed genes

Frage 12

Frage
Deamination of methyl-cytosine:
Antworten
  • Does not occur
  • Changes methyl-cytosine to thymine
  • Only occurs in the sequence CG
  • Results in genomic imprinting
  • Occurs only in expressed genes

Frage 13

Frage
Sex determination in drosophila is due to:
Antworten
  • Riboswitches
  • Alternative splicing
  • Alternative 3' end cleavage
  • Localization of mRNA
  • Alternative translational initiation

Frage 14

Frage
Mirco RNAs (miRNAs):
Antworten
  • Are the same as rRNAs
  • Are not encoded by the genome
  • Are found only in bacteria
  • Are involved in gene repression
  • Are part of ribosomes

Frage 15

Frage
Attenuation involves regulation of:
Antworten
  • Translation
  • Replication
  • Recombination
  • Transcription
  • Proteolysis

Frage 16

Frage
Ion exchange chromatography separates:
Antworten
  • Proteins, based on size
  • Proteins, based on surface charge
  • Proteins, based on source

Frage 17

Frage
FRET is used to study:
Antworten
  • Protein structure
  • Protein molecular weight
  • Protein/protein interaction
  • Protein sequence
  • Protein denaturation

Frage 18

Frage
SDS is used in protein gels to (select all that apply)...
Antworten
  • Make glassware clean up easier
  • Help denature proteins
  • To create a uniform mass/charge ratio
  • To reduce disulfide bonds

Frage 19

Frage
DNA libraries are used to bank (select all that apply):
Antworten
  • Genomic DNA
  • RNA
  • cDNA
  • Artificial chromosomes

Frage 20

Frage
Dideoxy nucleotides are used in DNA sequences to:
Antworten
  • Denature the DNA
  • Hybridize the DNA
  • Chain terminate the DNA
  • Elongate the DNA
  • Transcribe the DNA

Frage 21

Frage
Hybridization of nucleic acids refers to:
Antworten
  • A renaturation technique
  • An electrophoretic technique
  • A cloning technique
  • A forensic technique
  • A purification technique
