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 anoth…
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.

Chapter 30, Problem 17P

Exploring the Structure of the 30S Ribosomal Subunit Go to www.pdh.org and bring up PDB file 1GIX, which shows the 30S ribosomal subunit, the three tRNAs, and mRNA. In the box on the right titled ‘Biological Assembly.� click “More Images.� and then scroll down to look at the Interactive Vic By moving your cursor over the image, you can rotate it to view it from any perspective.

a. How are the ribosomal proteins represented in the image?

b. How is the 16S rRNA portrayed?

c. Rotate the image to see how the tRNAs stick out from the structure. Which end of the tRNA is sticking out?

d. Where will these ends of the tRNAs lie when the 50S subunit binds to this complex?
