Actually, in prokaryotes, a cap and tail are not added to the mRNA transcript. Instead, prokaryotic mRNA is directly translated without modification. This is in contrast to eukaryotes, where mRNA undergoes modification at the 5' end with a cap and at the 3' end with a poly-A tail to protect it from degradation.
initially its hrRNA or pre-mRNA. (same thing different name). this then undergoes some modification like splicing, capping and polyadenalation to make mRNA which is then translated into protein.
Yes, removal of intervening sequences (introns) is a common modification that occurs to pre-mRNA in eukaryotic cells through a process called splicing. This process removes the introns and joins the coding regions (exons) together to form mature mRNA that can be translated into proteins.
False. In prokaryotes the transcript is immediately translated into proteins. This complex has its own technical name which escapes me for the moment. There is no modification of the gene needed as it is not leaving the nucleus the prokaryote does not have.
Transcription. In eukaryotes, the DNA is transcribed into pre-mRNA which then undergoes modification (involving the loss of introns). The newly polished mRNA is then transported out of the nucleus, into the cytoplasm to undergo translation by means of the ribosome. The ribosome translates the mRNA by pairing it with tRNA producing and amino acid sequence. The amino acid sequence is then shaped into a protein that is used in numerous ways to perform tasks throughout the organism.

Pre-mRNA undergoes a process called RNA splicing, where non-coding regions (introns) are removed and the coding regions (exons) are joined together. This forms mature mRNA, which can then be translated by ribosomes into proteins.

mRNA is stabilized in the nucleus through the addition of a 5' 7-methylguanosine cap and a 3' poly-A tail. These modifications protect the mRNA from degradation and signal for its export to the cytoplasm for translation. Additionally, RNA-binding proteins assist in stabilizing mRNA and regulating its processing.
The correct order of protein synthesis is transcription (DNA is copied into mRNA), translation (mRNA is decoded to build a protein), and post-translational modification (protein may undergo changes like folding or addition of functional groups).
Post-transcriptional modification is a process in cell biology by which, in eukararyotic cells, primary transcript RNA is converted into mature RNA. A notable example is the conversion of precursor messenger RNA into mature messenger RNA (mRNA), which includes splicing and occurs prior to protein synthesis. This process is vital for the correct translation of the genomes of eukaryotes as the human primary RNA transcript that is produced as a result of transcription contains both exons, which are coding sections of the primary RNA transcript.
False. In prokaryotes the transcript is immediately translated into proteins. This complex has its own technical name which escapes me for the moment. There is no modification of the gene needed as it is not leaving the nucleus the prokaryote does not have.
The nucleus is where DNA which codes for proteins is stored. The DNA is transcribed to make mRNA in the nucleus. The mRNA then leaves the nucleus where it is translated on the ribosomes into a series of amino acids which make up a protein. So the role of the nucleus is to tell the cell which proteins to make.
Transcription is the process of forming RNA from DNA. During transcription, enzymes read one strand of the DNA double helix and synthesize a complementary RNA molecule. This RNA molecule then undergoes processing and modification to become mature RNA.

The action of snRNPs is essential to the removal of introns from pre-mRNA, a critical aspect of post-transcriptional modification of RNA, occurring only in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. Additionally, U7 snRNP is not involved in splicing at all, as U7 snRNP is responsible to process the 3′ stem-loop of histone pre-mRNA.
