About Molecular Biology and Genetics
GoConqr OriginalWhat this unit covers
The resources follow the path from genes to proteins. You will find material on nucleic acid structure, DNA replication and repair, transcription, translation, and the techniques used to study all of it. Every resource here was made by GoConqr users, and all of it is at university level.
Where to start
Begin with the quiz DNA structure, replication and repair. It asks you to compare prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, and it flags traps such as the idea that prokaryotic DNA is complexed by histones. Then work through the flashcard decks Molecular Biology L1 and Molecular Biology L2. They move from cell basics to how transcription begins and where the promoter sits.
Next, try Nucleic acid structure for B form DNA and the forces that stabilise or destabilise it. DNA repair and replication part 3. covers the origin of replication and topoisomerases, including the drugs that target them.
Using quizzes and maps together
Open a mind map first to see the whole picture, then test yourself. The Proteomics (1) mind map defines the proteome and its origins. Transcription, DNA sequencing and PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) give you overviews of methods and processes. After each map, take a quiz and note what you missed. The quiz BCHM Quiz 4 tests the lac operon and the TATA binding protein, which suits that kind of check.
Exam-style revision
Some resources are written with exams in mind. Exam 1 Prep asks about the Shine-Dalgarno sequence, the Hayflick number and the nuclear localisation sequence. Biochemistry - Step 1, first aid covers chromatin, histone modification, and purines versus pyrimidines. The listed resources mention USMLE, so these decks may suit candidates preparing for it. Teachers can pick any quiz or deck to set as a starter or a recap.
Where it fits
This unit sits in the Molecular Biology and Gene Expression strand of Biochemistry. Choose one topic that you find hard, work through a map and a quiz, then build your own flashcards from what you got wrong.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I open first?
Start with the quiz DNA structure, replication and repair. It checks the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and shows common mistakes. After that, the flashcard decks Molecular Biology L1 and Molecular Biology L2 build up the basics of the cell and transcription.
What do the mind maps on this page cover?
They cover topics such as proteomics, transcription, micro RNAs and small RNAs, RNA sequencing, DNA sequencing, DNA chips and PCR. There are also maps on DNA extraction and on the repair of DNA double strand breaks, so you can pair a method or process with a quiz.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
Which levels and exams do these suit?
All the resources are at university level, so they suit university students and professional candidates, and teachers looking for ready-made material. The listed resources mention USMLE, and decks such as Biochemistry - Step 1, first aid are written with that kind of revision in mind.
Who made these resources?
They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. Over 80 contributors have shared quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes here. Because they come from different courses, check each resource against your own syllabus or lecture notes.
What if the topic I need is missing?
Try a nearby resource first. Topics like translation, the ribosome and aptamers appear in several decks, and the notes on PCR and microarrays may help too. If you still cannot find it, you can make your own flashcards, mind map or quiz.
