Clues

  • Any proteins involved in transcribing DNA into RNA (13, 6)
  • Chromatin that is prevalent in gene rich areas. It is less compact, allowing access for proteins involved in transcription (11)
  • Consists of a phosphate group, a pentose sugar (either ribose or deoxyribose) and a nitrogenous base. They are bound together by PHOSPHODIESTER LINKAGES at the 3' end (10)
  • Cytosine, thymine, uracil (11)
  • Highly condensed region of interphase chromosome. Most abundant in cells which are less active (15)
  • The enzyme which adds free nucleotides to the strand (3, 10)
  • The enzyme which adds nucleotides during transcription. It is recruited by the transcription factors surrounding the TATA box. The entire complex is called the pre-initation complex (PIC) (3, 10, 2)
  • This enzyme breaks the hydrogen bonds between bases of DNA (3, 8)
  • This enzyme unwinds the tightly wound double helix during DNA replication (13)
  • This is added during gene transcription (at the elongation phase) to protect the RNA from being degraded (7, 3)
