Translation of MRNA can begin before transcription is complete. C. RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region to begin transcription. D. MRNA is synthesized in the 3' → 5' direction.
A scientist studies the production of a key digestive enzyme in silk moths. The moths have one gene for this enzyme, and the scientist extracts mRNA transcribed from this gene as well as protein translated from it. The gene has three introns in its sequence. If the researcher compares mRNA from inside the nucleus to mRNA from the ribosomes, what will be found? A. less mRNA in the nucleus B. shorter mRNA in the ribosomes C. identical mRNAs in both places D. mRNA covalently attached to protein in the nucleus
Chronic liver disease is common among HIV-infected patients, and is increasingly a cause of mortality and morbidity. The disease is usually a result of the destruction and altering of specific liver cell membrane proteins, which damages and kills liver cells. How does HIV influence this activity? A. Protein synthesis is altered in HIV patients due to the insertion of viral RNA. B. Liver disease is a side-effect of several HIV medications. C. HIV halts DNA transcription and inhibits protein synthesis. D. Liver disease is caused by the attack of the HIV virus on the organ itself
8) Which of these describes the function of RNA polymerase? A. Amplifies the “message" by making multiple copies of an mRNA molecule after it has been transcribed from DNA B. Converts a protein sequence to mRNA
How is translation different in prokaryotes and eukaryotes? a. In prokaryotes, because they do not have a nucleus, the translation of mRNA occurs while it is being transcribed b. In prokaryotes, pre-mRNA translation before transcription occurs within the cell c.In prokaryotes, reverse trancriptase simultaneously translates and transcribes mRNAd.In prokaryotes, functional mRNA allows for translation to be skipped, and proteins are made during transcription
