- Briefly describe the function of the following in protein synthesis. a. rRNA b. tRNA c. mRNAarrow_forwardAt least three types of RNA are required for protein synthesis. Compare and contrast mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA by moving the descriptions of their structure and function to the appropriate categories. Some phrases may describe all three types of RNA. mRNA in eukaryotes, can exist outside the nucleus acts as an enzyme for peptide synthesis composed of ribonucleic acid rRNA Answer Bank moves amino acids to the site of protein synthesis tRNA contains nucleotide triplets that code for specific amino acids has a convoluted structure with a three-base sequence called an anticodon moves genetic information out of the nucleus and into the cytoplasm mRNA, rRNA, and tRNAarrow_forwardCompare the RNA and protein components of prokaryotic and eukaryotic ribosomes.arrow_forward

This could be in prokaryotes or eukaryotes, or both. Group of answer choices: Translation OR Transcription Sigma binds to the promoter mRNA binds to the small ribosomal subunit Spliceosomes remove introns and splice together exons Nucleotides are added from the 5' to 3' end tRNA anticodon binds to the corresponding mRNA codon STOP codon results in terminationarrow_forwardIdentify whether each of the following descriptions applies to typical prokaryotic genomes only, typical eukaryotic genomes only, both, or neither, according to lecture. Answer options may be used more than once or not at all. Composed of double-stranded DNA only. Each chromosome has a centromere. Species with larger genomes have more genes.

- b. The coding sequence begins with AUG. What does AUG signify in terms of translation? The Standard Genetic Code When RNA polymerase initially transcribes the insulin gene into messenger RNA, two introns - totaling 966 additional nucleotides - are included in the precursor form of the insulin mRNA. These intron sequences are removed from the mRNA in a splicing reaction as the mRNA is being transported out of the nucleus of the cell. You might want to discuss why almost all eukaryotic genes contain introns. 3' 3'- Val 35 (V) Ala (A) G Arg (R) A Ser (S) Lys (K) Asp (D) Glu 0 이 Phe (F) Leu (L) Ser (S) CODOCCAGUCAGUCAGUCAGUC C G A C G A S%vcS\¢ Asn (N) G Thr E A GU C GU AC CUG ACUGACUGAC Met (M) Q A A G Tyr 35 UTO.
