Study Notes
Flow of Genetic Information in Cells
- DNA to RNA to protein is the correct flow of genetic information in cells
Synthesized Sequence
- The synthesized sequence using 5'-CAGTTCGGA-3' as a template is 3'-GUCTTGACC-5'
Ribosomal Site
- During elongation in translation, an incoming charged tRNA molecule binds to the A site
Bacterial Transcription Stage
- The sigma subunit of RNA polymerase is involved in the initiation stage of bacterial transcription
Transcriptional Control
- Negative transcriptional control and positive transcriptional control can be used to regulate both inducible and repressible genes
Immune System
- Innate immunity is antigen-independent and the first defense
- Thymus is the site for maturation of T cells, not B cells
- Peyer patch is a mini lymph node
- Macrophages are not the only source of interleukin-6 (IL-6)
- Ig M antibodies play a role in protection against helminth infection
Immune Response
- The site where immune response is initiated is the lymph node
- Natural killer cells are the source of Interferon-y (IFN-y)
- Macrophages activated to produce oxygen-dependent compounds produce nitric oxide
- The first immunoglobulin produced after antigen exposure is Ig M
- An antigen is a substance capable of eliciting a specific immune response
Antibiotics
- Benzylpenicillin is the chemical name for Penicillin G
- A common feature among antibiotics like penicillin, cephalosporins, carbapenems, and monobactams is that they all have a β-lactam ring as part of their biological interaction
- Aerobic fermentation is used in the production of penicillin
- Long-term use of broad-spectrum antimicrobials can contribute to the development of a superinfection
Microbiology
- Protoplast and spheroplast cells can live in a medium containing a high concentration of sucrose solution
- RNA POLYMERASE enzyme is an ideal target for antibiotics such as REFA and thus leads to the killing of bacteria
- The F plasmid is involved in the process of conjugation
- The formation of pyrimidine dimers results from exposure to ultraviolet radiation
- Primase is not involved in the initiation of replication
- Maximal expression of the lac operon occurs when lactose is present and glucose is absent
- A deletion of one nucleotide is an example of a frameshift mutation
- The promoter is involved in the initiation of transcription
