Question
Chapter 30, Problem 9P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for 100-fold larger rate for a protein identifying a specific position along a DNA molecule should be determined.
Concept introduction:
DNA synthesis can be defined as the process by which the deoxynucleic acids such as adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine are associated together to form DNA.

- I am more confused. how about we start from begining, you post answers on here, and then we go from there? 1. Identify the open reading frame in the following DNA sequence, the protein that this gene encodes for, its function, and the source. 2. "Look carefully at the DNA sequence and identify the start site for transcription" 3. Click on the DNA sequence from the start site of transcription, select all of the sequence, and copy the sequence. Go to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/. Click on BLAST on the right-hand side under “Popular Resources.” BLAST is a program that will allow you to find the protein sequence for the DNA sequence (gene) you submit.

I'll definitely give a like You discovered a halophilic bacterium and want to characterize the mechanism involved in producing mature tRNA molecules from larger tRNA precursors. You isolated a large complex composed of a protein component and an RNA component that is capable of cleaving the larger tRNA precursor. To determine which one of the two components is responsible for catalysis, you perform an in vitro tRNA cleavage assay in the proper buffer conditions, including a low concentration of Mg2+ and 0.5 M bovine serum albumin (BSA). BSA is not specific for this reaction. The table below summarizes the results after performing eight separate reactions. The + symbol indicates the included reaction components. Q. Based on the results obtained, what can you conclude about the composition of the biological catalyst required for the maturation of tRNA? Q. Indicate which reactions helped you make your conclusion.
