BIOL 1090 Chapter Notes - Chapter 11: Chromatin, Sigma Factor, Ribonucleotide
Document Summary
Storage and transmission of information with simple codes computer uses a binary code: transfer of genetic information: the central dogma. Dna to dna during its transmission from generation to generation. Dna to protein during its phenotypic expression in an organism: transcription: transfer of the genetic information from dna to rna (reversible, translation: transfer of information from rna to protein (irreversible) During replication of rna viruses; info is transmitted from rna to rna. Genetic information flows from rna to dna during the conversion of the genomes of. Rna tumor viruses to their dna proviral form. During transcription; one strand of dna of a gene is used as a template to synthesize a complementary strand of rna called the gene transcript. Rna molecules and 50 to 90 different proteins), requires participation of other macromolecule. Rna translated on ribosomes messenger rnas (mrnas) Nuclear gene in higher eukaryote and some in lower contains noncoding sequences .
