What consisting of only about 80 nucleotides which assume a looped shape?

MicroRNA is a type of small non-coding RNA consisting of about 80 nucleotides that forms a looped secondary structure. It plays a crucial role in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression by binding to target messenger RNA molecules.


What is the minimum number of nucleotides in an mRNA molecule which encodes a protein consisting of 80 amino acids?

The minimum number of nucleotides in an mRNA molecule encoding a protein of 80 amino acids is 243 nucleotides. This is because each amino acid is encoded by a codon, which consists of three nucleotides. Therefore, for 80 amino acids, you would need 80 codons, resulting in 80 x 3 = 240 nucleotides, plus at least one additional nucleotide for a stop codon, totaling 243 nucleotides.


What is relatively small consisting of only about 80 nucleotides wich assume a looped shape?

This description matches a microRNA (miRNA). MiRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules that are about 18-25 nucleotides in length and often assume a looped structure. They play important roles in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression.


How long is a typical RNA molecule?

80 nucleotides.


What are molecules consisting of sub units called nucleotides called?

Nucleic Acids ( I think)


Does Nucleic acids consist of DNA and RNA?

DNA and RNA are nucleic acids consisting of nucleotides.


Which nucleotides were structurally similar to each other?

Adenine and Guanine are structurally similar purine nucleotides, characterized by a double-ring structure. Cytosine and Thymine are structurally similar pyrimidine nucleotides, consisting of a single ring.


Molecules consisting of subunits called nucleotides are called?

[Macromolecular] Chains of ribose based nucleotides are Rna while Chains of 2'-Deoxy Ribose based nucleotides are called Dna.


Are nucleic acids and nucleotides the same thing?

No, nucleic acids are biopolymers made up of nucleotides linked together in a chain. Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids, consisting of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule, and a nitrogenous base.


If a DNA sequence consists of 12 nucleotides how many mRNA codons will there be?

A DNA sequence consisting of 12 nucleotides will produce 4 mRNA codons. This is because each codon is made up of 3 nucleotides, so you can divide the total number of nucleotides (12) by the number of nucleotides per codon (3), resulting in 12 ÷ 3 = 4 codons.
