- The possibility of a single locus in a DNA to code for different mRNAs. If this is possible, what would be the implications?arrow_forwardThe relationship between the nucleotide sequence of an mRNA and the DNA strand from which it is transcribed. Messenger RNAs are synthesized by RNA polymerases that read along a DNA template strand in the 3'→5' direction, polymerizing ribonucleotides in the 5'→3' direction. Give the nucleotide sequence (5'→3') of the DNA template strand from which the following mRNA segment was transcribed: 5'-UAG UGA CAG UUG CGAU-3’arrow_forwardPromoters of the INS genearrow_forward
- The three stages of transcription (initiation, elongation, and termination) – with a focus on how RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) relates to these stages.
