What feature of eukaryotic translation is especially responsible for its efficiency?
As we focused on the translation of mRNA into proteins as well as on protein structure and function. Along the way, we found many opportunities to consider the methods and reasoning by which much of this informationwas acquired. From the explanations given in the chapter,what answers would you propose to the following fundamentalquestion
What experimental information verifies that certain codonsin mRNA specify chain termination during translation?
QUESTION 46 Vancomycin and B-lactam antibiotics are similar in what way? OA. They both prevent NAM-NAG glycosdic bond formation in peptidoglycan OB. They both upregulate transpeptidase expression C. They both prevent peptide side chain cross-linking in peptidoglycan O D. They both contain beta lactam ring structures OE. They both cleave NAM-NAG glycosdic bonds in peptidoglycan

- Lactose permease, a protein of E. coli, is composed of a singlepolypeptide that is 417 amino acids in length. By convention, theamino acids within a polypeptide are numbered from the aminoterminalend to the carboxyl-terminal end. Are the following questionsabout lactose permease true or false?A. Because the sixty-fourth amino acid is glycine and the sixty- eighth amino acid is aspartic acid, the codon for glycine,64, is closer to the 3′ end of the mRNA than the codon for aspartic acid, 68.B. The mRNA that encodes lactose permease must be greater than1241 nucleotides in length.arrow_forwardWhat is the p-value or critical value of this problem?arrow_forwardAs we focused on the genetic code and the transcription of genetic information stored in DNA into complementary RNA molecules.
