BIOL 101 Final: Final Notes p7
Document Summary
Today: rna basics, transcription, protein basics, translation. Rna: once the structure of dna was known, researchers began to investigate how information from dna directed protein synthesis. Rna: once the structure of dna was known, researchers began to investigate how information from dna directed protein synthesis, rna was suggested by its structure (similar to dna) and location (cytoplasm and nucleus) Rna: long dna molecules don"t transfer out of the nucleus, some of the earliest evidence was that rna was both inducible and short lived following stimulus. Transfer rna (trna): brings correct amino acid to mrna during translation. Small nuclear rnas (snrnas): short transcripts that assist in processing mrnas. Rnas (mirna, sirna): regulate gene expression by degrading target mrnas. Long non-coding rnas (lncrna): dosage, expression, and lots of things for you to figure out! Rna: rna composed of a sugar, nucleotide base, and one or more phosphate groups, like.
