Across
  1. 7. A short, single strand of DNA that is used to produce the starting sequence of DNA polymerase at the beginning or end of a desired gene.
  2. 8. Found in viruses, is an enzyme that defies the central dogma of biology.
  3. 9. Polymerase Stolen from extremophiles to do our dirty work.
  4. 11. Complementary to the active site of restriction endonucleases.
  5. 15. The process by which two complementary single-stranded DNAs anneal together to form a double-stranded DNA.
  6. 16. The process by which plasmids are inserted into bacteria, involving calcium ions and heat shock.
  7. 19. Circular rings of DNA that can be modified using technology.
  8. 21. Stolen from jellyfish to illuminate cats!
  9. 22. Temperature used to break hydrogen bonds in PCR.
  10. 23. A repeated sequence found in non-coding regions of DNA.

  1. 1. 3 words, repeat and repeat, and somehow you'll end up with 2^n.
  2. 2. A worldwide effort to uncover the truth behind humans.
  3. 3. Found in bacteria, an enzyme used to cut DNA.
  4. 4. A short, single strand of DNA that is used to mark whether a desired gene is present by using fluorescent or radioactive markers.
  5. 5. A technique used to analyse DNA
  6. 6. Temperature used for DNA replication in PCR.
  7. 10. Donald trump hates these organisms because they are...!
  8. 12. Used for join oligonucleotides to produce a desired gene, provided the amino acid sequence is known.
  9. 13. The name given to the medium by which recombinant DNA enters an organism.
  10. 14. Temperature used to anneal DNA primers in PCR.
  11. 17. Property given to something that can be read the same backwards as done forwards.
  12. 18. A technique used to separate DNA based on size.
  13. 20. ligase Joins together adjacent nucleotides through the formation of phosphodiester bonds.
