Summary Introduction

To determine: The meaning of Competing endogenous RNAs act as molecular “sponges.”

Introduction: RNA (ribonucleic acid) is a nucleic acid which is important for the various biological roles in regulation, expression of genes, coding, and decoding of genes. RNA is the major macromolecule which are essential for all forms of life.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The entity to which the competitive endogenous RNA compete.

Introduction: The ceRNA (competitive endogenous RNA) are the non-coding long RNA). They contain sequence which is complementary to the miRNA (miRNA response elements).

Describe a significant problem that slown down RNA self-replciation in free sea water. How was this problem solved by liposomes (protcells)?
Certain mutations called amber in bacteria and viruses result in premature termination of polypeptide chains during translation. Many amber mutationshave been detected at different points along the gene thatcodes for a head protein in phage T4. How might this system be further investigated to demonstrate and support the concept ofcolinearity?
i)Describe attenuation control and how it is used to regulate gene expression. ii)Give a specific example of how this works? iii)Could this be used in eukaryotes? why ?or why not?
