Questions in Translation
Page 1 out of 7 Pages
- Does each subunit have its own function or just one all together?(40580 views)
- What does it mean to say a site is conserved and has a consensus sequence?(33489 views)
- What does a footprint region mean?(23628 views)
- Are the conserved sequences at the ends of mRNA that denote splicing sites considered non-translated RNA?(37759 views)
- What is the most abundant form of RNA?(196171 views)
- I understand that the 5 prime cap structure lets ribosomes know where to start protein synthesis, but I'm not sure how they provide stability to mRNA and protect from RNases.(19897 views)
- I am confused about the slide shown in class involving the simultaneous transcription and translation in bacteria. How come the mRNA appears to be almost perpendicular to the DNA strand? Isn't it transcribed along the DNA strand?(23149 views)
- Do polysomes only occur in prokaryotes? If not, then how can eukaryotes have polysomes if they are monocistronic?(34106 views)
- For translation, what are the different elongation factors used and in which of the steps is each used. I have in my notes EF-Tu, EF-G, and I think RF; not sure what they all signify though.(18120 views)
- How and where does Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase bind to tRNA?(20348 views)
