AUG codon is an
"AUG" is the most common start/initiation codon. The start codon specifies the first codon of mRNA transcript that is translated by a ribosome. It codes for methionine in eukaryotes and a modified Met in prokaryotes. Option A is correct. UAA (ochre), UGA (opal) and UAG (amber) are stop codons that cause termination of protein synthesis and do not code for any amino acid.
Which of the statements about denaturation has given below are correct? (a) Denaturation of proteins causes loss of secondary and tertiary structures of the protein. (b) Denaturation leads to the conversion of the double strand of DNA into the single strand. (c) Denaturation affects primary structure which gets distorted.
List two essential roles of ribosome during translation.
During translation, activated amino acids get linked to (RNA). This process is commonly called as
In a mRNA molecule, untranslated regions (UTRs) are present at
Match column with column II and select the correct option from the given codes. Column I Column II A. Translation (i) Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase B. Transcription (ii) Okazaki fragments C. DNA replication (iii) RNA polymerase
Ribosomes are sites of which reaction?
