Concept explainers
To examine:
The reason that it is advisable to use reverse transcriptase to create DNA from a mRNA transcript when preparing eukaryotic genes for use in the bacterial cell.
Introduction:
DNA consists of a sequence of nucleotides, which encodes
To determine:
The reason that bacterial cells do not use eukaryotic DNA directly
Introduction:
RNA processing involves splicing followed by cleavage. RNA editing in eukaryotic cells removes the non-coding intervening (intron) sequence from the transcribed RNA and results in the functional protein. This protein regulates the healthy development of the body in a eukaryotic organism.
