random bio Flashcards
coding genes
carry info for protein synthesis
produce proteins that carry most cellular roles
some are present in large amount to make hundreds of copies of rRNA and histons
2non coding genes
carry info for RNA synthesis and transcription
repeating genes due to increasing the no of chromosomes will lead to
increase in the no of protein
repeating nitrogenous bases on the same gene will lead to:
change in the protein
to make a ribosomal unit we need:
4 kinds of rRNA transcripted in the nucleus and 70 kinds mRNA translate into 70 kinds of polypeptide proteins then 4 rRNA unite with them in the nucleolus and then released to the cytoplasm
what distinguishes rRNA from mRNA and tRNA ?
the multiople copies of its DNA more than 600 copies
similarity between tRNA and rRNA is that both are chemically stable
