Herpes zoster ophthalmicus | PGI Based MCQ


Polypetide chain termination is enhanced by 

A. Stop codon 
B. promoter 
C. Ribosomal unit 
D. Peptidyl transferase 
E. UAA

The Answer is. (A) Stop codon ; (E) UAA
• Peptide chain termination is enhanced by stop codon or the nonsense codon
• The stop codons are UAG, UGA, UAA
Classes of proteins involved in Replication
— DNA polymerase : Deoxynucleotide polymerization.
— Helicase : progressive unwinding oi DNA.
— Topoisomerase : Relieves torsional strain that results from helicase-induced unwinding.
— DNA primase : Initiates synthesis of RNA primers.
— DNA ligases seals single strand nick between the nascent chain and okazaki fragments on lagging strand,
— Single stand-Binding protein : prevents premature reannealing of ds DNA.
• RNA polymerase.: It synthesises short strands of RNA
