In relation to central dogma of molecular biology answer the following questions: The following segment of DNA is part of the transcription unit of a gene. You know already that RNA polymerase moves in a specific direction along this piece of DNA to convert one of the DNA strands into a single strand RNA transcript so that this entire region of DNA is made into RNA. 5′-GGCATGGCAATATTGTAGTA-3′ 3′-CCGTACCGTTATAACATCAT-5′ Given this information, a student claims that the RNA produced from this DNA is: 3′-GGCATGGCAATATTGTAGTA-5′ Give two reasons why this answer is incorrect.
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
