Why is RNA splicing important to cellular processes and protein synthesis?
Microbiologists describe the processes of transcription and translation as “coupled” in bacteria. This term indicates that bacterial mRNA can be undergoing transcription at the same moment it is also undergoing translation.
How is coupling possible in bacteria?
Is coupling of transcription and translation possible in single-celled eukaryotes, such as yeast? Why or why not?
