- REFLECT AND APPLY Would you expect mRNA or rRNA to be degraded more quickly in the cell? Why?arrow_forwardREFLECT AND APPLY Explain why a 50S ribosomal subunit and a 30S ribosomal subunit combine to form a 70S subunit, instead of an 80S subunit.arrow_forwardREFLECT AND APPLY Why is a trimming process important in converting precursors of tRNA and rRNA to the active forms?arrow_forward
- REFLECT AND APPLY Explain briefly what happens to eukaryotic mRNA before it can be translated to protein.arrow_forwardREFLECT AND APPLY E. coli incorporates deoxyribonucleotides into DNA at a rate of 250 to 1000 bases per second. Using the higher value, translate this into typing speed in words per minute. (Assume five characters per word, using the typing analogy from Question 36.)arrow_forwardREFLECT AND APPLY You are studying with a friend who says that the hydrogen-bonded portions of tRNA play no important role in its function. What is your reply?arrow_forward

The sequences (N-terminal to C-terminal) of the smaller peptides produced by trypsin digestion were as follows: MetValSerThrLysValIleTrpThrLeuMetIleLeuPheAsnGluSeArg The sequences of the smaller peptides produced by chymotrypsin digestion were as follows: AsnGluSerArgValIleTrpThrLeuMetIleMetValSerThrLysLeuPhe Deduce the sequence of the original peptide.arrow_forwardREFLECT AND APPLY Is the following statement true or false? Why? The flow of genetic information in the cell is always DNARNAprotein.arrow_forward
- REFLECT AND APPLY You are in the process of determining the amino acid sequence of a protein and must reconcile contradictory results. In one trial, you determine a sequence with glycine as the N-terminal amino acid and asparagine as the C-terminal amino acid. In another trial, your results indicate phenylalanine as the N-terminal amino acid and alanine as the C-terminal amino acid. How do you reconcile this apparent contradiction?arrow_forwardREFLECT AND APPLY How would protein synthesis be affected if a single codon could specify the incorporation of more than one amino acid (an ambiguous code)?arrow_forwardREFLECT AND APPLY The amino acid hydroxyproline is found in collagen. There is no codon for hydroxyproline. Explain the occurrence of this amino acid in a common protein.arrow_forward
