Question
Chapter 4, Problem 33P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reaction sequence that depicts the reason for RNA to be more susceptible to nucleophilic attack than DNA needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
DNA havea double helical structure and hydrogen bond between complementary base pair connects the two strands of the helix.Also, hydrogen bond between bases and water molecules combines with phosphodiester bond in sugar phosphate region. This process makes the DNA more stable than RNA.

- True or False. Just write T if it is true and F if it is false. In E. coli both RNA and protein synthesis take place in the cytoplasm. Okazaki fragments are ssDNA CHAINS OF 100-200 nucleotides long, primed by very short RNA primers in bacteria. In eukaryotic gene, the coding sequences are known as introns while the intervening sequences are the exons. The central dogma refers to the fact that proteins are products of information encoded in RNA using a DNA intermediate. The ends of the linear chromosomes are maintained by telomerase to prevent it from shortening during mitosis. The Shine Delgarno sequence is where the RNA pol binds during transcription in prokaryotes The sigma subunit of the E. coli RNA polymerase confers specificity to transcription. Both DNA replication and transcription follow a 5’ to 3’ direction of polarity. Nucleosomes are the structural unit of chromatin. In the lagging strand, the enzyme X removes RNA primers attached by PRIMASE and this gap is then filled…arrow_forwardTRUE or FALSE. If false, write the word/s that make(s) the statement incorrect. 1.
