What is the genetic coding?

The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material (DNA or RNA sequences) is translated into proteins (amino acid sequences) by living cells.


How is the term insertion properly defined?

'Insertion' is a therm in genetic science. It describes the addition of nucleotide base pairs into DNA sequences. It might lead to a hazardous mutation of the DNA.


What are transposons and how do they contribute to changes in bacteria?

Transposable elements are more complex than insertion sequences. In some bacterial transposons, the extra genes are sandwiched between two insertion sequences. Transposons may help bacteria adapt to new enviroments. =D... Hope this helps!!-AP EDITION BIOLOGY-CAMPBELL REECE

What are genes divided into?

The Divisions of the Gene are these: the Up - upstream enhancer sequences, the Upstream promoter sequences, the Operator Sequence that positions the Gene Polymerase Enzyme at the Start Codon, the Coding Sequence, and the Termination 'arrangement' [there are several Forms].


Where in the promoter do transcription factors bind?

Completely Specific Transcription Factors bind to equally specific Dna Sequences that are located and found within The Promoter [Dna] Sequence. Up-Stream from the promoter sequence are the enhancer sequences; Down-Stream is the Operator Sequence - followed by the encoded information.


Does a restriction enzyme generate the same size fragments in genomic DNA of different species?

No. A restriction enzyme cuts DNA when it finds a specific sequence. Different animals will have these sequences occur at different intervals so the length of the fragments won't be the same.


What types of DNA sequences do restriction enzymes recognize?

Every restriction enzyme has a very specific sequence that it will recognise. Quite often, but not always, these sequences are palindromic (meaning they repeat backwards, like words that read the same backwards and forwards). The exact nature of the DNA sequence depends on the restriction enzyme (there are many different ones).


How does the genetic code create a living organism?

The gentic code is the set of rule which information encoded within gentic material DNA and mRNA sequences it translated into protrins by living cell.
