Does messenger RNA have a phosphate group?
Yes, messenger RNA (mRNA) contains a phosphate group in its backbone. This phosphate group is part of the nucleotides that make up mRNA and plays a crucial role in the structure and function of the molecule.
How do nucleotides translate into amino acids?
Nucleotides in messenger RNA (mRNA) are read in sets of three, known as codons. Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules recognize the codons on the mRNA and bring the corresponding amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. This process is called translation.
What part of the cell is responsible for making proteins?
There is no specific part of the cell, other than in the ribosome. The ribosome is the part that makes the protein at the end of the process known as protein synthesis. Ribosomes are actually proteins themselves, and are called rRNA, or ribosomal RNA.
How does the nucleus make protein for the cell?
The nucleus does not directly make proteins. Instead, it contains the genetic information in the form of DNA that encodes instructions for making proteins. This genetic information is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) in the nucleus, which then travels to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm where proteins are synthesized through the process of translation.
How are recent developments in genetics helping to change the world?
Genetics our what our life is based on. It is what we seem to be formed of and they influence who we become. By changing or modifying the genetics in a human you can cure diseases and other such problems. A problem with this is the idea of a perfect society. You can also change the genetics of plants to make them more resistant to various things such as bugs. This can be bad because the modifications to the genetic code could be harmful to humans.
Which nitrogen base matches with mRNA's uracil?
Adenine (A)
In the synthesis of mRNA an adenine in the DNA pairs with what?
In the synthesis of mRNA, an adenine in the DNA pairs with uracil. This is known as A-U base pairing, which replaces the A-T base pairing found in DNA replication.
Does mRNA use thymine or adenine in its genetic code?
It will use adenine, but thymine will be replaced by a nitrogen base called "uracil" in mRNA
What base does mRNA have that DNA does not?
Uracil replaces Thymine as a base in mRNA.
What are the nitrogen bases found on mrna?
The nitrogen bases found on mRNA are adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and uracil (U). These bases are used during transcription to create the mRNA molecule by complementary base pairing with the DNA template strand.
What strand of mRNA from DNA is replaced by adenine?
It's not a strand that is replaced, but a nitrogen base, much like adenine. The pyrimidine thymine is replaced by another pyrimidine uracil.
During transcription if the dna has the base adenine the resulting bases on the mRNA is?
During transcription, the resulting bases on the mRNA if the DNA has the base adenine is Proteins.
Which type of mRNA nucleotide pairs thymine in the DNA strand?
Uracil pairs with adenine in mRNA and replaces thymine in the DNA strand during transcription.
How is complementary base pairing different when pairing DNA to DNA than pairing DNA to mrna?
Complementary base pairing in DNA-DNA pairing involves adenine (A) pairing with thymine (T) and cytosine (C) with guanine (G), following the rules of Watson-Crick base pairing. In DNA-mRNA pairing, uracil (U) replaces thymine, so adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U) in mRNA instead of thymine (T).
Are adenine and uracil base pairs?
Yes, it pairs with it in mRNA (messenger RNA) synthesis. A-U and C-G. mRNA is made when a gene is expressed (protein is made)
What are the base pairing rules of rna?
RNA base pairing rules are similar to DNA, except uracil (U) pairs with adenine (A) instead of thymine (T). This means in RNA, adenine pairs with uracil, cytosine pairs with guanine, and guanine pairs with cytosine.
A DNA strand with the base sequence tgacgca codes for a strand of mrna the mrna will have what base sequence?
The mRNA sequence generated from the DNA strand tgacgca would be acugcgu. This is because mRNA is complementary to the DNA template strand, so DNA base T pairs with mRNA base A, DNA base G pairs with mRNA base C, DNA base A pairs with mRNA base U, and DNA base C pairs with mRNA base G.
