Translation It is defined as the process of formation of proteins by the ribosomes present in the cytoplasm. This protein synthesis occurs after the process of transcription of DNA to RNA in the nucleus of cell.Answer Without a 5' cap Not exported to the cytoplasm. Without a 5' cap At the 5' of mRNA, Capping is done to prevent the degradation of mRNA from exonucleases. Absence of 5' cap will lead to the degradation of mRNA and it would not translated. Not exported to the cytoplasm The process of translation occurs in the cytoplasm, as the ribosomes are present there to carry out the process. If the transcript is not exported to the cytoplasm, then the translation will not occur.Incorrect options Alternatively spliced mRNA- This will be translated as it is one the methods of formation of mRNA. This leads to the production of different mature mRNA molecules from the same initial transcript. Not imported to nucleus- Transcription already take place into the nucleus, so for the process of translation it has to move to the cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm, ribosomes are present to carry out the translation. Mutation in the start codon and last codon will also be translated. The product formed will be possibly different from the original product.
