  • Codominance - products of both genes are present in heterozygote
  • Multiple alleles - one example is the ABO blood group system
  • Incomplete dominance - the phenotype of the heterozygote differs from the phenotype of both homozygotes
  • Epistasis - ability of a gene to mask the expression of another gene at a different locus.
  • Complete dominance - phenotype of AA and Aa is the same.
  • Complete Dominance - heterozygotes are identical to homozygous dominants.
  • Overdominance - Heterozygotes exhibit a superior phenotype compared to either homozygous parents.
  • Incomplete Dominance - heterozygotes are phenotypically intermediate between the two homozygous types.
  • Codominance - heterozygotes exhibit a mixture of the phenotypic characters of both homozygotes instead of single gene expression.
  • O. Hertwig - discovered that the nucleus is required in cell division and fertilization.
  • E. Strasburger and W. Flemming - discovered that chromosomes are in the nucleus.
  • Walter Sutton and Theodor Boveri - proposed chromosome theory of inheritance.
  • Friedrich Miescher - isolated nuclein from the nucleus.
  • Avery, Macleod, McCarty - chemicals from heat-killed S cells were purified. The chemicals were tested to transform live R cells. The transforming agent was found to be DNA.
  • Hershey and Chase - The DNA of phage was injected into the bacterial host, but the protein coat stayed outside. The viral DNA directed the host to replicate new phage viruses.
  • Chargaff - In any DNA sample, the amount of adenine equals the amount of thymine, and the amount of guanine equals the amount of cytosine.
  • Griffith - transformation of virulent R type to virulent S type.
  • Klinefelter's syndrome - having sex chromosomal composition of XXY.
  • Down Syndrome - Trisomic for chromosome 21
  • Cri-du-chat - deficiency in the short arm of chromosome.
  • Turner's syndrome - 22IIA + XO
  • DNA ligase - enzyme that permanently seals together DNA fragments that have complementary sticky ends.
  • DNA polymerase - enzyme used to make multiple copies of genes in the polymerase chain reaction.
  • restriction endonuclease - enzyme used to produce RLFPs
  • Replication Initiation - requires two single stranded DNA templates
  • Replication Initiation - helicase + single stranded binding protein + DNA gyrase + single stranded DNA template
  • Replication Elongation - DNA polymerase III complementing the template strand in 5' to 3' direction.
  • Replication Elongation - DNA polymerase + Okazaki fragment
  • Replication Elongation - Excision of RNA primer by DNA polymerase I
  • Replication Termination - products are two identical daughter DNA
  • Transcription Initiation - Sigma factor + RNA polymerase binding to promoter
  • Transcription Elongation - anticoding strand complemented by RNA polymerase in 5' to 3' direction
  • Transcription Termination - products are mRNA, tRNA, rRNA
  • Transcription Termination - rho factor + RNA polymerase
  • Translation Initiation - mRNA template strand
  • Translation Initiation - IF 1-3, ribosome, mRNA with AUG as initiation codon
  • Translation Elongation - entrance of another charged tRNA at A site of the ribosome
  • Translation Termination - products are polypeptide chain
  • Translation Termination - Release Factors + UGA at A site of the 70s ribosome
