Protein Synthesis Flashcards
Docking site for RNA polymerase
Promoter
What reads DNA?
RNA polymerase
Strand that stays dormant during protein synthesis
Coding strand
Strand that is active during protein synthesis
Template strand
What type of Domain does transcription and translation at the same time?
Prokaryotes
What’s cut out before cell leaves nucleus?
Introns
What’s ends up leaving the nucleus?
Exons
Process of combining the mRNA?
Splicing
Process of connecting exons
Splicing
Poly A tail and its purpose
A tail in mRNA that is pure extraneous Adenosines so that enzymes it that instead of the information in the mRNA
G-cap and it’s purpose
To bind to rRNA for translation to start
A nucleotide pair of 3 to be read by tRNA
Codon
What reads the opposite of Codon?
Anti-Codon
The three sections in rRNA?
Exit, Polypeptide, Amino acid
Codon that says stop!
Stop codon
