Textbook Question
Chapter 4.6, Problem 1CR
How does the archaeal RNA polymerase differ from that in Bacteria? How does the initiation of transcription in the two domains differ? Why do eukaryotic mRNAs have to be “processed” whereas most prokaryotic RNAs do not?

26) Eukaryotes are unable to couple transcription and translation because:
A) the two processes occur in separate regions of the cell
B) they do not have the specialized ribosomes that occur in bacteria
C) the genetic code in eukaryotes is incompatible with the formation of polyribosomes
D) the mRNA of eukaryotes do not have the appropriate spacers that polycistrons allow for polyribosomes to form
E) eukaryotic mRNA molecules are monocistronic.
