Introns
5´ UTR
3´ UTR
Polymorphisms
Are DNA alterations that cause a disease
Are changes in DNA sequence
It is difficult to distinguish between polymorphism and missense mutations
May result in protein disfunction
Are large genomic deletions
DNA hybridization
Single-stranded DNA probe becomes attached with another singe-stranded DNA sequence
Is one of the steps of protein synthesis
Is the process of transferring of the genetic information from DNA to mRNA
Is the process of transferring of the genetic information from mRNA to protein
It is true that
RNA processing consists of three processes, splicing, cap binding and a poly tail adding

Cap binding, occurs on 3 UTR of the RNA-molecule
During splicing the exons are delated but not introns
During splicing the introns are deleted but not exons
Is it true that
There are only 20 different tRNA particles in humans
Each amino acid is coded by one codon only
Poly-a tail adding occurs in cytoplasm
Somatic mutations can be inherited by next generation
Gremline mutations can be inherited by next generation
Is it true that
RNA is always double-stranded
DNA is more stable than RNA
DNA can be isolated from brain cells
RNA contains sugar ribose
RNA can be isolated from white blood cells
Mark fragments of the gene that does not code protein sequence
Promoter
Introns
Exons

Increase the protein synthesis
Takes place in the nucleus
Inhibits transcription
Can be caused by the enzyme DICER
Inhibits translation
What organelle does not contain nucleic acids
Microtubules
Chloroplast
Mitochondria
Ribosome
Mark steps of RNA processing
Poly A-tail adding
Cap-binding
Splicing
RNA cleavage
Adding of amino acids
A premature mRNA includes
Promotor
Exons
Introns
UTRs
A nonsense mutation generally results in

DNA replication
Cellular respiration
Photosynthesis
What process occur in Golgi apparatus
Transcription
Protein modification
Protein packing
DNA replication
How many nucleotides specify one amino acid
1
2
3
4
Mutations which are due to a single nucleotide change in the DNA and lead to the replacement of one amino acid in a protein by another are
Nonsense mutations
Silent mutation
Missense mutations
Single base pair substitutions
Point mutations
What kind of mutation is shown in the example below: • Normal: CAG GTG ACC TCA GTG • Altered: CAG GTG AGG CCT CAG TG
Missense mutation, GG deletion
Frameshift mutation, changed sequence of the protein
GG insertion
Silent mutation, no change of the protein
