BSCI 223 Lecture Notes - Lecture 12: Stop Codon, Ribosome-Binding Site, Start Codon
Document Summary
How is it studied: observable by experimental means. Presence of biochemical pathway, pigment production, motility. If gene is in the environment, it is the phenotype. Question: describing a cell as resistant to antibiotics is a statement of cellular: Neither: phenotype because we are not talking about the genes that provide the resistance, but the reaction to the antibiotics. Protein name based on function: b-galactosidase, particulate methane monooxygenase. Plasmids genetic material, contain nonessential genes, isn"t necessary to. Without supercoiling and compacting the dna of a bacterial cell wouldn"t fit survive (antibiotic resistance) into the cell. Dna rna protein: dna rna: transcription, rna protein: translation. Genotype is present in dna, will get the phenotype at the end of protein. Found at the 5" end of the genes. The sequence of the mrna read 5" to 3" made is made almost the same as the: don"t use the t base, use the u instead of t coding strand.
