How do prokaryotes and eukaryotes differ with respect to the number of open reading frames that are contained in a typical mRNA? Why does this difference make sense in view of the translation initiation strategies used by each type of organism? What consequences does this difference have for the regulation of coordinated gene expression in the two types of organisms—for example, how might a key regulator turn on a suite of related genes in prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells?

The main differences in gene expression between prokaryotes and eukaryotes result from the presence of a nucleus in eukaryotes. Which of the following is FALSE when comparing transcription between prokaryotes and eukaryotes? Prokaryotic mRNA goes through multiple modifications before translation Eukaryotic genes have introns that need to be removed before translation Prokaryotic mRNA can be translated while it is still being transcribed Eukaryotic mRNA needs a 'cap and a 3'tall to prevent its degradation 0/2 pts Question 45 Lets play...
1. How does transcription and translation differ in Eukaryotes and in prokaryotes. 2. How is DNA transcription different from prokaryotes and Eukaryotes? 3. What is a gene?
Last week we discussed the role of general transcription factors in forming the transcription initiation complex in eukaryotes. Next week we will look more closely at the regulation of gene expression and the role played by specific transcription factors. Prokaryotes and eukaryotes utilize very different mechanisms for determining which genes are turned on and off and when. In lieu of the prokaryotic operon model, eukaryotes employ a combinatorics approach utilizing both general and specific transcription factors. For this week’s forum,...

Reading frame b. Overlapping code C. Nonoverlapping code d. Initiation codon e. Termination codon f. Sense codon 8. Nonsense codon h. Universal code i. Nonuniversal code 3. What role do the initiation factors play in protein synthesis? 4. Compare and contrast the process of protein synthesis in...
