Transcription synthesis of RNA from DNA Transcription results in mRNA RNA polymerase makes mRNA mRNA makes proteins RNA polymerase binds to DNA Transcription factors (TFs) A regulatory protein that binds to DNA and affects transcription of specific genes. Can wither activate or repress expression of genes Termination of transcription RNA polymerase reaches a terminator sequence (Stop codon) and detaches from the templateTranslation Process by which mRNA is decoded and a protein is produc...

Briefly explain how the base pairs A-T and C-G bond to each other and why the interactions they form are important to DNA unwinding. Base pairs form hydrogen bonds to each other. G and C form 3 hydrogen bonds, while A and T form 2 hydrogen bonds. These hydrogen bonds are weak electrostatic interactions that are able to hold the DNA together but are easily broken for the DNA to unwind. Why are telomerase inhibitors an attractive prospect for cancer therapies? >90% of cancer cells expres...

What is the minimum number of nucleotides per amino acid required to specify all 20 amino acids? Correct Answer-3 nucleotide bases per amino acid Codon Correct Answer-a triplet of nucleotides that codes for a specific amino acid Translation occurs in such a way that these nucleotide triplets are read in a successive, nonoverlapping the key to the translation of genetic information, directing the synthesis of specific proteins Overlapping Correct Answer-AUACGAGUC -> is read like AU...

Major Steps of the Central Dogma correct answers Replication, transcription, and translation. DNA correct answers What is the main product of replication? RNA correct answers What is the main product of transcription? Proteins correct answers What is the main product of translation? Promoter correct answers A region of DNA that provides a secure binding site for RNA polymerase and transcription factors. mRNA, rRNA, tRNA correct answers Three types of RNA generated by transcr...

Adaptation- - correct answersThe adjustment or changes in behavior, physiology, and structure of an organism to become more suited to an environment. Aerobic- - correct answersA process that requires oxygen. Allele -An alternative form of a gene. An example would be genes that encode eye color—some encode blue eyes (one allele), while others encode brown, green, or hazel eye colors (other alleles). - correct answers amino acids - - correct answersA small organic molecule with the stru...
