Document Summary
Atmospheric methane (ch4) accounts for ~20% of global warming, with rice paddies representing the largest human source of this pollutant (~15% of the total) . Methanogenic bacteria growing in the warm waterlogged soil and feeding on nutrients released by rice plant roots are the source of ch4. Leading strand is being copied by dna polmeraseand goes continuously in 5" to 3". Dna strand and m rna strand is written in 5" to 3" direction. Dna level there is a promoter from the -35 to -10 sites where rna polymerase can bind to and then open up the bubble. There will be a sequence called the ribosome binding sequence where the ribosomes will be able to interact with rna polymerase. Encoded in the dna strand is the start codon (atg for dna and aug for rna) and stop codon (triplet of bases) which serve as a signal to stop translation as uag, uga, and uaa for rna.
