Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Alternative splicing is also termed as differential splicing. This process is used to regulate gene expression and results in formation of different proteins from a single gene. In this process, exons are included or excluded from the processed mRNA translated from the given gene.

Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?     Genes are never simultaneously transcribed and translated in Eukaryotes.     Both Eukaryotes and bacteria have rRNA and tRNA genes.     The lac mRNA in bacteria encodes multiple proteins.     There are many different definitions of gene.     All of the above are true
Which of the following statements is FALSE?  A cDNA library   Choose an answer below: is made from reverse transcribed mRNA. represents expressed genes. contains regulatory elements such as promoters and enhancers. does not contain introns. none of the above
Which of the following statements about the attempt to express a eukaryotic gene in bacteria is TRUE?   Choose an answer below: The eukaryotic promoter will function in the bacterial cells. The transcript will be capped. Expression of the gene will always yield a functional protein. The stop codon of the eukaryotic gene will function in the bacterial cells. The transcript will be spliced the same way as in eukaryotic cells.
