A linear plasmid contains only two genes, which are transcribed in opposite directions, each one from the end, toward the center of the plasmid. Draw diagrams ofa. the plasmid DNA, showing the 5′ and 3′ ends of the nucleotide strands.b. the template strand for each gene.c. the positions of the transcription-initiation sites.d. the transcripts, showing the 5′ and 3′ ends.
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
A linear plasmid contains only two genes, which are
transcribed in opposite directions, each one from the
end, toward the center of the plasmid. Draw diagrams of
a. the plasmid DNA, showing the 5′ and 3′ ends of the
b. the template strand for each gene.
c. the positions of the transcription-initiation sites.
d. the transcripts, showing the 5′ and 3′ ends.
