Document Summary

+ cytosine: sugar deoxyribose backbone, double strand, versatile mlcl, information- containing mlcl, can function as a catalytic mlcl, intermediate between complexity of dna and simplicity of dna, 4 levels of structure, three types, adenine + uracil, guanine + Explain transcription its location, function, and main steps. Describe pre-mrna processing in eukaryotes: rna processing is any type of modification needed to convert pre-mrna into mrna, happens in the nucleus, where pre-mrna is modified into mature mrna, mrna leaves nucleus and moves into cytoplasm. Explain translation its location, function, and main steps. In the cytoplasm: process by which proteins and peptides are synthesized from mrna. Read the genetic code from dna (triplet code), transcribe into mrna, and translate the code for a polypeptide chain. Compare and contrast dna replication and transcription: replication, transcription, dna polymerase iii corrects errors, whole dna unwinds and is replicated, both dna strands are template strands, dna polymerase requires a primer.
