Question
Chapter 15.4, Problem 1SB
Summary Introduction
To review:
The comparison between translation initiation in eukaryotes versus prokaryotes.
Introduction:
The central dogma states that DNA is converted into RNA via a process called transcription. Through translation, protein synthesis occurs, wherein the mRNA is translated. Before entering the process of translation, post-transcriptional modifications occur.
