Question
Chapter 9.2, Problem 12AYP
Summary Introduction
To indicate:
The difference between eukaryotic and bacterial as well as archaeal translation and transcription.
Introduction:
Transcription is a biological process in which genetic information of DNA is copied into RNA in the nucleus of the cell. Translation is a process of synthesis of protein which is encoded by the gene. The messenger RNA which is formed from DNA carries information for specific protein by the process of transcription.
