The mRNA coding for the λ repressor actually begins with 5'-AUG, which encodes the methionine residue that begins the protein. What is unusual about this beginning, and would you expect it to have any effect on the translation of this prokaryotic mRNA?
In general the bacteria contains N formyl Met as a first amino acid, here which is different than that of the lambda repressor case which is met.
AN d It is expected to have an effect on the translation process.

Shown below is the sequence of a coding strand of DNA that begins with what corresponds to the translation start codon (AUG) in the mRNA transcript. You are analyzing two different mutants. Mutant #1 has an extra C residue after the underlined G residue and Mutant 2 has a deletion of the underlined A residue. Wild type 5’- ATGCTTACTGAGGTCATGGTACAGATGA Mutant 1 5’- ATGCTTACTGCAGGTCATGGTACAGATGA Mutant 2 5’- ATGCTTACTGAGGTCATGGTCAGATGA What is the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide encoded by: B. The...
QUESTION 3 The codon S-AUG-3' on an mRNA encodes the amino acid methionine. What is the corresponding anticodon found on the methionine charged tRNA? 3-UAC-5 5-UAC-3 o 3-GUA-5 5'-ATG-3 QUESTION 4 Match each cause of DNA damage with the mechanism by which it can lead to mutations. Topoisomerase is unable to function properly, and when it makes A cuts in the DNA strands these are not always repaired. This leads to a loss of nucleotides and potential frameshift mutations. In...
Prokaryotic mRNA usually encodes for more than one protein while eukaryotic mRNA a single protein. Eukaryotic DNA is linear and bacterial and archaeal DNA is-linear. In prokaryotes, ribosomes attach to the mRNA and start protein synthesis even before transcription is completed. Eukaryotic mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA are all highway processed. Nuclear pore complexes control the entry and exit to and from the nucleus. They will not let mRNA exit the nucleus before it is full processed. Eukaryotic and archaeal DNA...
Genetics Worksheet Week 3: Gene Regulation and Epigenetics 1. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is caused by a mutation in a gene that is 2.5 million nucleotides in length and encodes a protein called dystrophin. The dystrophin protein itself is 3684 amino acids in length. Calculate below the approximate size of the mRNA that encodes dystrophin. Approximately what percentage of the gene that encodes dystrophin is intron sequence? The human genome encodes a much greater variety and number of proteins than the...
