One difference between RNA polymerases and DNA polymerases is that RNA polymerases
doesn’t require a primer
The portions of the mRNA transcript which remain in mRNA after post-transcriptional modifications are called
exons
The lac operon in addition to responding to the presence or absence of lactose is also sensitive to glucose levels. In the presence of glucose
cAMP will be low and the CAP protein will not be activating high levels of expression
What is the function of ubiquitin in protein degradation?
Tags proteins for destruction
How many subunits do ribosomes consist of?
2
Protein translation in the ribosome begins with N or C terminus?
N
High concentration of cAMP leads to
active CAP (CAP binds to DNA appropriate site)
When is the regulatory gene transcribed in Lac operon?
It is always transcribed
What is the process called when breaking the peptide bonds between amino acid in proteins?

Which post-translational modification is catalyzed by protein disulfide isomerase (PDI)?
Formation of disulfide bonds
How does temperature regulate translation in certain bacteria?
By blocking Shine-Dalgarno sequences
