WHAT IF? In eukaryotic cells, mRNAs have been foundto have a circular arrangement in which proteins holdthe poly-A tail near the 5¿ cap. How might this increasetranslation efficiency?
WHAT IF? Suppose the mRNA being degraded in Figure18.14 coded for a protein that promotes cell division ina multicellular organism. What would happen if a mutation disabled the gene for the miRNA that triggers thisdegradation?
WHAT IF? A certain mutation in E. coli changes the lacoperator so that the active repressor cannot bind. Howwould this affect the cell’s production of β-galactosidase?
