direction and the mRNA is transcribed in the 5’ to 3’ direction by the RNA polymerase. Transcription occurs in the cell nucleus‚ where the DNA is held. The DNA structure of the cell is made up of two helixes made up of sugar and phosphate held together by the bases. The sugar and the phosphate are joined together by a hydrogen bond. The DNA is "unzipped" by the enzyme helicase‚ leaving the single nucleotide chain open to be copied. RNA polymerase reads the DNA strand from 3-prime (3’) end to the 5-prime

DNA to use as RNA. It is located in the nucleus of eukaryotes and in the nucleoid of prokaryotes. DNA stores information encoded in a genetic code. The code consists of four letters and they are T (thymine)‚ G (guanine)‚ A (Adenine)‚ and C (cytosine). One gene codes for on protein. RNA is a molecule that copies information that is coded in another genetic code. This code also consists of the same four letters as in DNA yet with U (uracil)‚ which is a substitute for T (thymine). RNA is a single strand

FRQ #3 a) The flow of genetic information from DNA to protein in eukaryotic cells is called the central dogma of biology. The role of RNA in protein synthesis is extremely important as protein synthesis could not occur without RNA. Three forms of RNA exist solely to create proteins. Through a process known as translation‚ RNA constructs the proteins necessary to sustain life. Spliceosomes Process pre-mRNA by splicing out intronic nucleic acids producing mRNA which is then translated to protein

very stable‚ the genetic material is RNA and replication takes place one of two ways; with heat that denatures the RNA or with an enzyme called a ribozyme. The atmospheric conditions on the early Earth may have played an important role in the formation of components of nucleic acids that make up genetic material‚ including the sugar ribose and the four nucleobases. Scientists have shown that clays such as montmorillonite are able to catalyze polymers of RNA from single nucleotides. These clays

The polymerase uses complimentary base pairing to attach RNA nucleotides to the second strand with the exception that it attaches Uracil in place of Thymine. The row of “guitars” represent the transfer RNA (tRNA) which transfers a specific active amino acid to a growing polypeptide chain at the ribosomal site of protein synthesis during translation.

Functionally‚ eukaryotic genomes can be described as much larger and more complex than prokaryotic genomes. This means regulation is a lot more demanding and intensive within the eukaryotic genome. Due to its complex nature‚ eukaryotic gene regulation can bring genetic changes in its product that affect gene expression‚ phenotypic outlook‚ and advances in biotechnology. This can be thought of as an evolutionary advantage to organisms in an unstable environment. Gene regulation in eukaryotes is a
