Which of the following statements about RNA processing in eukaryotes is INCORRECT? A. The excision of introns from pre-mRNA is the only modification required to produce a mature mRNA. B. A protein/RNA complex is used to remove introns from the pre-mRNA. C. A poly A tail is added on to the 3′ end of the mRNA. D. A 7-methylguanosine cap is added on to the 5′end of the mRNA. E. Modification occurs in the nucleus.
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.
