Chapter 26, Problem 13BO

(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The minimum number of nucleotide pairs required to code for human pancreatic ribonuclease  that has 128 amino acid residues.

Introduction:

Ribonuclease is a type of nuclease that helps in the degradation of RNA into smaller components. It is of two types: endoribonuclease and exoribonuclease. mRNA is messenger RNA that carries genetic information from DNA to ribosome.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The length of the mRNA coding for human pancreatic ribonuclease in NCBI database.

Introduction:

Ribonuclease is a type of nuclease that helps in the degradation of RNA into smaller components. It is of two types: endoribonuclease and exoribonuclease. mRNA is a type of messenger RNA that carries genetic information from DNA to ribosome.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The discrepancy between the size calculated in part (a) and the actual length of the mRNA .

Introduction:

Ribonuclease is a type of nuclease that helps in the degradation of RNA into smaller components. It is of two types: endoribonuclease and exoribonuclease. mRNA is a type of messenger RNA that carries genetic information from DNA to ribosome.
