Document Summary

12. 1 the connection between dna, rna, and protein. 12. 1b the pathway from gene to polypeptide involves transcription and translation. The processes of transcription and translation are similar in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells except: prokaryotic cells can transcribe and translate a given gene simultaneously. Eukaryotic cells transcribe and process mrna in the nucleus before exporting it to the cytoplasm for translation. Features of the genetic code: three-letter code, commaless, universal, degenerate, has start and stop signals. Products of transcription: mrna trna, rrna. 12. 3a eukaryotic protein-coding genes are transcribed into precursor mrnas that are modified in the nucleus processed in the nucleus to produce translatable mrna. A eukaryotic protein-coding gene is typically transcribed into a pre-mrna that must be. Once the pre-mrna has become mature mrna, it can exit the nucleus and enter the cytoplasm to be translated. The promoter regulates where, when and to what level a gene is expressed. It is the recognition site of rna polymerase.

Related Questions

When we use DNA to code for a protein, we call the process Transcription and Translation. Below are descriptions of processes that happen when we use DNA to code for a protein. Match the description of each process with the correct term - either Transcription or Translation.

1.A ribosome reads the mRNA and builds a protein from amino acids.
2.A copy is made of a gene in RNA
3.The primary transcript is modified: introns are removed and the transcript gets a cap and a tail
4.tRNA carries amino acids to a ribosome
5.The DNA unwinds, exposing the gene to be copied.
