Telomeres
Select one:
a. consist of repetitive sequences with high G content
b. are a few hundred base-pairs long in vertebrates
c. have specific proteins bound at the DNA ends
d. a and c
Hint: it's not a.
Answer: d. A and C
Comments: Telomeres are nucleoprotein complexes (DNA-protein complex) present at the linear ends of the chromosomes. It protects the ends of chromosomes from degradation and fusion to avoid the loss of genetic information. This region is consists of repetitive sequence of G nucleotide base which tightly regulate the specialised proteins (telomerase and telomerase binding proteins) for chromosomal integrity.

QUESTION 52 Which of the following has/have repetitive DNA sequences in heterochromatin state? (Select all that apply.) A. mitochondria B. telomere C. centromere D. chloroplast
Transcription is terminated, when a characteristic RNA structure _____ is formed by local RNA palindromic sequences at the 3’- end. The structure interacts with RNAP-bound NusA, causing dissociation of RNAP from template DNA. The RNAP dissociation is stimulated by sequence-specific binding of _____ proteins to the transcribed RNA, enhancing termination of transcription. Select one: a. hairpin ;;;; rho b. hairpin ;;;; sigma c. beta-turn ;;;; rho d. beta-turn ;;;; sigma e. None of these
