Two strands of nucleotides wound about each other; structure of DNA

A segment of DNA on a chromosome that codes for a specific trait

Process of copying DNA prior to cell division

Enzyme involved in DNA replication that joins individual nucleotides to produce a DNA molecule

An enzyme that untwists the double helix of DNA at the replication forks.

The template for constructing the new DNA double helix

The newly made strand in DNA replication

The opposite arrangement of the sugar-phosphate backbones in a DNA double helix.

Semiconservative replication

Method of DNA replication in which parental strands separate, act as templates, and produce molecules of DNA with one parental DNA strand and one new DNA strand

Single-stranded nucleic acid that contains the sugar ribose

The organic process whereby the DNA sequence in a gene is copied into mRNA

Enzyme similar to DNA polymerase that binds to DNA and separates the DNA strands during transcription

A type of RNA, synthesized from DNA and attached to ribosomes in the cytoplasm; it specifies the primary structure of a protein.

A specific sequence of three adjacent bases on a strand of DNA or RNA that provides genetic code information for a particular amino acid

Group of three bases on a tRNA molecule that are complementary to an mRNA codon

An RNA molecule that functions as an interpreter between nucleic acid and protein language by picking up specific amino acids and recognizing the appropriate codons in the mRNA

Process by which mRNA is decoded and a protein is produced

Ability of an organism to control which genes are transcribed in response to the environment

The complete instructions for making an organism, consisting of all the genetic material in that organism's chromosomes

A change in the base sequence of a gene

Gene mutation in which a single base pair in DNA has been changed

Mutation that shifts the 'reading' frame of the genetic message by inserting or deleting a nucleotide

A mutation involving the addition of one or more nucleotide pairs to a gene.

A change to a chromosome in which a fragment of the chromosome is removed.

A mutation in which a nucleotide or a codon in DNA is replaced with a different nucleotide
