Students have asked these similar questions
a. As a result of the structure of DNA and RNA, replication, transcription and translation are possible. What can nucleic acids do, as a result of their structure, that enables
these processes to occur?
The figure below shows a simplified schematic representation of a segment of DNA. The DNA is labelled with the numbers 1 – 14 for easy reference.

b. At which position on the DNA (number 1 - 14) will transcription be initiated?
c. At which position on the DNA (number 1 - 14) will the first signal for translation be found?
d. Between which two regions on the DNA will the polyadenylation signal be found? Use the numbers to indicate the region.
e. Between which two regions on the DNA will the first Shine-Dalgarno / Ribosome Binding Sequence be found? Use the numbers to indicate the region.
a. What process would be unaffected in with defective topoisomerase?
Prokaryotic DNA packaging
Eukaryotic DNA packaging
Prokaryotic DNA replication
Eukaryotic DNA replication
All of the above rely on topoisomerase function
b. Why is primase required for DNA replication?
To unwind the DNA helix
To prime nucleotides for addition to the growing chain
To provide a 3' OH for DNA polymerase
To recognize the origin of replication
To remove supercoils ahead of the replication machinery
C. What is the purpose of PCR reaction?
To alter the sequence of a fragment of DNA.
To insert a fragment of DNA into a bacterium
To amplify a fragment of ONA
To destroy a fragment of DNA
To determine the sequence of nucleotides in a fragment of DNA.
