Questions and Answers

What is a key step in the post-transcriptional modification of messenger RNA in eukaryotes?

  • The addition of a 5' cap (correct)
  • Rho-dependent termination:
  • formation of many hairpin loops to form a clover leaf structure
  • Termination of the anticodon
  • Which of the following are typically not found in eukaryotes?

  • Spliceosomes
  • Promoters
  • Polycistronic mRNAs (correct)
  • Polyadenylation of the 3' end
  • When glucose is present at high levels, what happens to the rate of transcription of structural genes in the lac operon?

  • It decreases because glucose inhibits the production of cAMP (correct)
  • It increases because glucose binds to a repressor
  • It remains the same
  • It decreases because glucose unwinds the chromatin structure of DNA
