BIOL 2081C Lecture Notes - Lecture 19: Missense Mutation, Rna Polymerase I, Polyadenylation
Document Summary
Elongation of the rna continues until a termination sequence has been transcribed. Then transcription is terminated and the entire rna polymer is freed from the dna: transcription occurs within the nucleus (where the dna is located), read the pages that describe the role of the promoter in gene transcription. That is how it knows to start the transcription process. They do this by promoting or blocking the recruitment of rna polymerase to specific genes: tata binding protein tells rna polymerase where to get started on a gene for transcription. The tata binding protein recognizes the tata sequence and binds to it, creating a. What cellular molecule is analogous to these short hand instructions? mrna: we added some protective coatings. 5" cap: a 5" cap is a modified guanine nucleotide that is added to the 5" end of the mrna molecule shortly after the start of transcription.
