The Relationship Between the Nucleotide Sequence of an mRNA and the DNA Strand from Which It Is Transcribed Messenger RNAs are synthesized by RNA polymerases That read along a DNA Template strand in The 3' → 5' direction, polymerizing ribonucleotides in The 5' → 3^r direction (see Figure 10.20). Give the nucleotide sequence (5^r → 3') of the DNA template strand from which The following rnRNA segment was transcribed: 5'-LAGL GAC AGUUGCGAU-3'.

Definition Definition Chemical process in which one or more monomers combine to produce a very large chain-like molecule called a polymer. The functional groups present on the monomers and their steric effects are responsible for polymerization through a sequence of reactions that vary in complexity. There exists a stable covalent chemical bond between monomers that sets apart polymerization from other processes.

Biochemistry What is the process of "transamination" in either the muscles or the liver, that involves keto acid or glutamic acid? Please explain how the steps work. Thank you!

Biochemistry Please help. Thank you What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)

Biochemistry Please help. Thank you When carbamyl phosphate is joined to L-ornathine, where does the energy for the reaction come from?
