6 important questions on RNA: transcription and processing
Protein tail of the RNApolII that coordinates processing of the pre-mRNA including capping, splicing and termination:
Complex formed by general transcription factors and the RNApolII
Transcription of information from DNA to RNA is based on 2 principles. What are these principles?
- The matching of complementary bases
- The binding of various proteins to specific sites on the RNA or DNA
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
Mention four important differences between RNA and DNA
- Ribose/Deoxyribose
- Uracil/Thynine
- Single-stranded/Double-stranded
- RNA can catalyze biological reactions (ribozyme)
What are the two general classes of RNA?
- Messenger RNA (mRNA)
- Functional RNA
What is the function of a TATA-box?
