Since the 5' UTR is not usually translated, instead used to regulate mRNA stability and expression, a mutation in the 5' UTR of Ferritin mRNA that increases the translation of Ferritin would most likely be involved in the loss of regulation of the mRNA. This can be either due to increased ribosome recruitment or de-regulation of translational repression.
QUESTION 36 Ferritin is an intracellular protein that stores essential iron and releases it in a...
please answer all 6 questions Question 27 3 pts TRBP is a protein important for the formation of the RISC complex. Which of the following would you expect in cells with null mutations in TRBP? o Reduced siRNA-mediated mRNA degradation o Increased miRNA-mediated translational repression o Increased deadenylase-mediated mRNA degradation o Reduced proteasome-mediated protein degradation D Question 28 3 pts A protein that binds to the 3' UTR of a VEGF mRNA and promotes deadenylation and uncapping is likely to:...
