When DNA serves as a pattern in the formation of mRNA it acts as a?
template for transcription. During transcription, RNA polymerase reads the DNA sequence and synthesizes a complementary mRNA strand using base pairing rules (A-U and G-C). This mRNA molecule then serves as a template for protein synthesis during translation.
One specifies how to build one polypeptide?
"When the product of a particular gene is needed, the portion of the DNA molecule that contains that gene splits, and a complementary strand of RNA, called messenger RNA (mRNA), forms and then passes to ribosome, where proteins are synthesized. A second type of RNA, transfer RNA (tRNA), matches up the mRNA with specific amino-acid, which combine in series to form polypeptide chains, the building blocks of proteins."So basically, its the gene that starts the whole thing. "Gene" is my final answer.
What happens to mRNA after protein synthesis?
Some stays around for a while so many polypeptide chains can be run from it, while other mRNA is degraded in the cytosol almost immediately by enzymes designed for the task. Depends on how much protein product is needed in the representation of the particular mRNA.
What identifies the specific amino acid for tRNA?
The messenger RNA strand. When the tRNA inserts itself between the two portions of the ribosome attached to the mRNA strand, the specific tRNA depends on the 3 nitrogen bases on the mRNA (the codon) that are about to be read. The tRNA that arrives has a corresponding "anticodon" to go with the codon on the mRNA. For example, if the nitrogen bases on the mRNA strand are adenine, guanine, and cytocine the tRNA will have an anticodon of uracil, cytocine and guanine. The tRNA that has the corresponding anticodon to the codon on the mRNA will bring with it a specific amino acid but it is the codon on the mRNA that ultimately decided which amino acid is next in line.
What occurs during the process of transcription?
The genetic information stored in DNA is transcribed into messenger Rna that is then transported to the cytoplasmic Ribosomes for translation.
What is the new mRNA stand produced by this mutated gene?
The specific sequence of the new mRNA strand produced by a mutated gene will depend on the nature of the mutation. Mutations can cause changes in the coding region of the gene, leading to alterations in the mRNA sequence and potentially affecting the resulting protein or gene function. Further analysis and sequencing of the mutated gene would be required to determine the exact mRNA sequence.
How many strands of mRNA are made during the process of transcription?
A single mRNA strand is typically produced but a single strand can make many many copies of the protein encoded on the molecule.
What strand of mRNA would be produced from the strand of DNA shown below apex.com?
GCT AT
What is the section of DNA being used to make the strand of RNA known as?
The DNA template strand is used to create mRNA.
What RNA strand is produced from DNA?
messenger RNA (mRNA)
Name of the DNA strand which is copied to make mRNA?
The DNA strand that is copied to make mRNA is the template strand of the gene. This strand serves as a template for the RNA polymerase enzyme to synthesize a complementary mRNA strand during the process of transcription.
What is formed when reverse transcriptase is used on a strand of mRNA?
A strand of DNA
How many strands does mRNA have?
mRNA typically consists of a single strand of nucleotides. It serves as a temporary copy of the genetic information in DNA and carries this information from the nucleus to the ribosomes for protein synthesis.
Is the given strand of DNA a coding or non coding strand tcctttctcattcagaggccgaac.This portion is removed from the center of the gene Why?
According to me,when this strand is transcribed the mRNA formed is not coding for any mino acid that is why this portion of gene is removed from DNA.
How many types of messenger RNA exist?
mRNA-moves from nucleus to cytoplasm to get transcribed by ribosome. rRNA- ribosomal RNA that is in splicesomes tRNA-transfer RNA that brings nucleotide bases to the mRNA strand being coded. tRNA matches its anticodon with the mRNA codon to make the polypeptide. Source: AP Biology student
What strand of mRNA would be produced of GCA TTA?
The strand of mRNA produced from the DNA sequence GCA TTA would be complementary to the DNA template strand. The corresponding mRNA sequence would be CUG AAU, where adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U) in RNA, cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C).
If there are 1200 nucleotides in DNA strand how may codons will be in mRNA strand?
400 codons.Because 3 consecutive nucleotides in a gene together form a codon which codes for amino acids.
