2

, Quiz_________________?
Endonucleases (Prok) -

Answer☑️
Restriction enzymes
Cleaves phoshpodiester bonds w/i poly-nt chain
Recognition site is palindromic sequence
Types I-V


Quiz_________________?
ORI sites -

Answer☑️
nt sequence where replication is initiated


Quiz_________________?
Topoisomerase I -

Answer☑️
Induces ss breaks
Remove DNA supercoils during TXN and DNA replication; for strand breakage during recombination;
for chr condensation; and to disentangle intertwined DNA during mitosis


Quiz_________________?
topoisomerase II -

Answer☑️

cuts both strands of one DNA double helix, passes another unbroken DNA helix through it, and then
reanneals the cut strands


Quiz_________________?
Gyrase (topoisomerase II) -

Answer☑️


3

, Unwinds supercoiling caused by unwinding at the rep fork by introducing DSBs

DNApol α (DNA dep RNA pol)

adds short segments of complementary
RNA to ssDNA template (primers), serves as starting points for replication


Quiz_________________?
single-strand DNA binding proteins (SSBPs) -

Answer☑️

Binds ssDNA and prevents it from re-annealing during TXN, replication, repair, and recombination


Quiz_________________?
