Which of the following statements about RNA structure is FALSE? O A. A sequence in a tRNA that forms one side of a stem region can differ in sequence from one tRNA to another, as long as another sequence elsewhere in the tRNA has been changed accordingly so as to retain complementarity. B. A prediction that RNA to RNA interactions are important for function, e.g. as in spliceosome-mRNA interactions, can be demonstrated by showing that mutations in one strand destroy function, but compensating mutations in the other strand that restore complementarity restore function. O C. RNA structure such as tRNAS, ribosomal RNAS, spliceosomal RNAS, etc. tolerate G-U base pairs, base- sugar interactions, mispairs, bulges, and so forth, the result being that functional objects can be formed. O D. RNA strands that form stems in RNA structures are oriented antiparallel, just like the strands of double stranded DNA.

QUESTION 23
Which of the following statements about RNA structure is FALSE?
O A. A sequence in a tRNA that forms one side of a stem region can differ in sequence from one tRNA to
another, as long as another sequence elsewhere in the tRNA has been changed accordingly so as to
retain complementarity.
B. A prediction that RNA to RNA interactions are important for function, e.g. as in spliceosome-mRNA
interactions, can be demonstrated by showing that mutations in one strand destroy function, but
compensating mutations in the other strand that restore complementarity restore function.
O C. RNA structure such as tRNAS, ribosomal RNAS, spliceosomal RNAS, etc. tolerate G-U base pairs, base-
sugar interactions, mispairs, bulges, and so forth, the result being that functional objects can be formed.
D. RNA strands that form stems in RNA structures are oriented antiparallel, just like the strands of double
stranded DNA.
O E. The 23and 16S RNAS are good examples of RNAS that can both carry coding information and carry
folding information. Before being assembled into ribosomes they are first translated to produce
ribosomal proteins, afterwards they fold into objects--the large and small ribosomal RNA structures.
