  Side A   Side B
1
Chemical Reactions inside cells
 
metabolism
2
metabolic breakdown of molecules (energy yielding)
 
Catabolism
3
biosynthesis of molecules (energy consuming)
 
Anabolism
4
Draw Metabolic Cycle.
 
.
5
Redox Reactions:     Oxidized = energy _____     Reduced...
 
releasedrequiredoxidizerreducer    
6
ATP is _____ energy
 
metabolic
7
NADH/FADH2 are ______
 
electron donors
8
energy from light
 
photoautotrophs
9
reduce simple chemical compounds
 
chemoautotroph
10
consumer organic compounds; carbs, lipids, proteins
 
heterotrophs
11
are often insoluble; broken down by enzymes
 
Polymers
12
most common; glucose-> 2 pyruvate
 
Glycolysis
13
(bacteria in soil) replaces 1st phase of glycolysis
 
Entner- Dourdoff Pathway
14
generate ribose for biosynthesis of DNA, RNA, NADPH
 
Pentose Phosphate Pathway
15
Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle (TCA)- central aspect of metabolism
 
Krebs Cycle 
16
enzymatic reaction directly to ATP; end of glycolysis
 
Substrate Level Phosphoralation
17
uses electron transport chain
 
Respiration
18
flow from negative potential to positive potential
 
Electron Transport Chain
19
"chemiosmosis"; electron transport pumps; membrane potential
 
Oxidative Phosphorylation
20
used to imply anaerobic metabolism; forms lactic acid
 
Fermentation
21
energy used for movement
 
motility
22
ATP used to accomplish active transport
 
membrane transport
23
synthesis of necessary cell components; anabolism
 
Biosynthesis
24
DNA is blueprint; amino acid chain (monomers)
 
Protein Biosynthesis
25
3 Steps of Transcription
 
InitiationElongationTermination
26
requires promoter, RNA polymerase, sigma factor
 
Transcription
27
starts transcription; 2 sequences in a row
 
Promoter
28
synthesizes RNA
 
RNA polymerase
29
needed for promoter recognition
 
Sigma Factor
30
RNA polymerase + sigma factor; binds to promoter
 
RNA holoenzyme
31
DNA is unwound in transcription
 
Initiation
32
In transcription sigma factor falls off; mRNA synthesized Occurs in 5'->3' direction
 
Elongation
33
stem-loop forms;RNA poly falls off
 
Rho independent
34
involves protein rho factor;helicase unwinds RNA-DNA complex
 
Rho dependent
35
mRNA is "read";3 bases = 1 codon1 codon = 1 amino acid
 
Translation 
36
amino acid chains;end of translation
 
Protein
37
in Translation the ribosome binds mRNA;Shine-Dalgarno
 
Initiation
38
in translation there are 3 binding sites (E, P, A) in what step?
 
Elongation
39
empty tRNA exit ribosome
 
E-Site 
40
contains tRNA with growing peptide chain
 
P-Site
41
contains incoming tRNA (aminoacyl)
 
A-Site
42
moves growing chain; between P and A
 
transpeptidation
43
tRNA exits E-Site;tRNA/chain move A to P;new tRNA in A-Site
 
Translocation
44
what step in translation when it stops at nonsense codon; ribosome dissociate with mRNA; aid...
 
Termination
45
protein + lipids after synthesis
 
Lipoproteins
46
protein + sugars after synthesis
 
Glycoproteins
47
on/off because environment regulate metabolism
 
Regulatory Proteins
48
where regulatory proteins bind'; upstream of genes
 
Regulatory Regions
49
2 or more genes transcribed from single promoter
 
Operon
50
level of DNA; most control
 
Transcriptional Control
51
(E. coli) if 2 present, will use 1 before the other
 
Diavxic Growth
52
promotes transcription; activator protein
 
positive control
53
inhibits transcription; repressor protein
 
Negative Control
54
folding of DNA; trp operon
 
Attenuation
