-
Degrading adenine to uracil
Questão 7
Questão
Approx 20% of cytosine is methylated
Questão 8
Questão
Cytosine methylation is restricted to where?
Responda
-
C's immediately 5' of guanidine
-
C's immediately 5' of adenine
-
C's immediately 3' of guanidine
-
C's immediately 3' of adenine
Questão 9
Questão
Methylated cytosine can spontaneously deanimate to thymine
Questão 10
Questão
Match the word to it's definition- where methylation is done upstream of a gene in order to pack it around the nucleosome and silence it
Responda
-
De-novo methylation
-
Maintentence Methylation
Questão 11
Questão
Maintanence methylation- added to newly synthesised DNA opposite methylated groups on the parent strand
Questão 12
Questão
Clusters in the human genome are the same as in the bacterial genome
Questão 13
Questão
What is a multigene family?
Responda
-
Where related genes of a similar function are found together
-
Where related genes of different functions are found together
-
Related genes with similar functions
Questão 14
Questão
Gene families are orthologues of each other
Questão 15
Questão
What is a pseudogene?
Responda
-
An inactive gene due to faulty (partial) replication of the original
-
A mutated gene that has become non-functional
-
Slowly more mutations accumulate
Questão 16
Questão
What is the difference between a pseudogene and a processed pseudogene?
Responda
-
The latter has no introns or promoter
-
The former contains no introns or promoter
-
The latter can be used to create mRNA (though it's non functional)
Questão 17
Questão
Processed pseudogenes are throught to be caused by the re-integration of siRNA into the genome
Questão 18
Questão
Gene fragments are sections that look like incomplete genes

-
MINES
Questão 21
Questão
Interspersed Repeating Intergenic DNA are DNA sections that replicate themselves as they move around the genome.

Questão
LTR's, LINE's and SINES's are transposed around the genome, how?
Questão 23
Questão
DNA transposons also have an RNA intermediate

Responda
-
Tandemly repeated extragenic DNA
-
Interspersed Replicating Integrated Elements
-
Interspersed Repeating Intergenic elements
Questão 25
