Which characteristic of mRNA is INCORRECT? Bacterial mRNAs vary in size but usually have about 1000 nucleotides that code for proteins with 300 amino acids. Bacterial mRNA is longer and more modified than that found in Eukaryotes. Before leaving the nucleus, Eukaryote mRNA has to be capped, spliced and had poly (A) tails added making it longer than Bacterial mRNA. The codons produced in Bacterial mRNA are triplets, just as they are in Eukaryotic mRNA.
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.
