Messenger RNA id transcribed from the DNA of the nucleus and then, after modification, leaves the nucleus. The mRNA is then threaded through a ribosome where translation takes place. A transfer RNA brings the amino acid that matches the three base codon of the mRNA to the ribosome, as these codons proceed through the ribosome the matching amino acids attach one to the other in a long chain that exists the ribosome as a polypeptide; the primary structure of a protein.

What is an example of central dogma?

An example of the central dogma of molecular biology is the process of gene expression, where DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA), which is then translated into a protein. For instance, the gene for insulin in humans is transcribed into mRNA in the nucleus, and this mRNA is transported to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm, where it is translated into the insulin protein. This sequence illustrates the flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to protein, a fundamental concept in biology.


What is the function of the cap and tail on eukaryotic mRNA?

The cap and tail on eukaryotic mRNA play important roles in mRNA stability and translation. The 5' cap protects the mRNA from degradation and helps in the initiation of translation. The poly(A) tail at the 3' end of mRNA also plays a role in mRNA stability and regulation of translation.


Is cDNA complementary to mRNA?

Yes, cDNA is complementary to mRNA.


What is the scientific term for writing the mRNA message in a cell?

The creation of mRNA is called transcription. mRNA is being transcribed from the DNA template.


What is the order of how a cell changes DNA messages to protein?

DNA -> transcription -> pre-mRNA -> mRNA processing -> mRNA -> translation -> protein


The 5' cap of mRNA is important for what?

The 5' cap of mRNA is important for several reasons: it protects the mRNA from degradation by exonucleases, helps in the recognition and binding of the mRNA by the ribosome for translation, and is essential for efficient splicing of introns.
