What are genes a part of?
There are three main parts of a gene. First, the promoter includes when and where the gene should be transcribed. Then, the coding sequence contains the instructions for making a protein. Last, the terminator indicates that the coding sequence is over.
Which parts of a gene are expressed as protein?
Coding sequences of a gene are expressed as protein
What is the meaning of thr word genes?
A gene is a functional unit on DNA. A gene codes for a protein. Most of the DNA in a genome does not code for protein. These non-coding sequences are thought to provide a sense of stability and integrity to the genome. If a DNA sequence is capable of coding for a functional protein, then it is a gene
How is it possible that there is twice as many proteins as there are genes and at the same time some genes do not code for protein?
About 1/3 of the coding genes have splicing variants . On average each gene has ~1.7 splicing varinats. My rough calculation is based a glance on NCBI gene database.
Constituents of a gene?
There are three main parts of a gene. First, the promoter includes when and where the gene should be transcribed. Then, the coding sequence contains the instructions for making a protein. Last, the terminator indicates that the coding sequence is over.
What is the relationship between the genes and chromosomes?
There are thousands of genes in a chromosome.
What does the word gene?
A gene is a functional unit on DNA. A gene codes for a protein. Most of the DNA in a genome does not code for protein. These non-coding sequences are thought to provide a sense of stability and integrity to the genome. If a DNA sequence is capable of coding for a functional protein, then it is a gene
what does genes code for?
Gene codes for protein.
What do genes encode?
Gene encodes a protein.
Which of the statements best describes the promoter of a protein-coding gene?
The promoter is a nontranscribed region of a gene.
What is the terms refers to a region of a chromosome that has a specifiic function?
The region of chromosome that is generally thought of as the unit of function is the "gene". Genes are composed of both a "coding region"--that sequence that tells the cell's machinery what the protein will be--and a "regulatory" region, which tells the cell when to turn on the coding region to make the protein.
What molecules are encoded by genes?
Genes code for proteins.
