• The role of the anticodon in translation is that it pairs with the codon on the mRNA.
• The function of the RNA polymerase during transcription is to link nucleotides to the growing RNA molecule.
• The function of the five-prime cap and three-prime poly A-tail in mRNA, is to stabilize the mRNA and aid in translation.
• The function of the large ribosomal subunit during translation, is to form the translation complex.
• The role of the small ribosomal subunit during translation, is that it binds to the mRNA strand upstream of the start codon.
• The role of the codons in protein synthesis is that they represent three-letter codes for amino acids.
• RNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for transcription.
• The role of the RNA molecule in translation is to provide the template for protein synthesis.
• Transcription occurs inside the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.
• Intron splicing is the process when introns are removed from the mRNA strand.
• The function of a ribosome is to synthesize proteins during protein synthesis.
• The role of DNA is that they contain genes that code for proteins.
• During the initiation stage of transcription, RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region of the gene.
• The role of the promoter region in a gene is to allow RNA polymerase to bind.
• The function of the terminator region in a gene is to signal the end of transcription.
• Initiation is the process when the DNA double helix unwinds and opens during transcription.
• The function of the e, p, and a sites in the ribosome during translation is that they serve as the regions where tRNA molecules bind.
• The function of spliceosome in intron splicing is to remove introns and join exons.
• A gene is a continuous string of nucleotides containing a region that codes for an RNA molecule.
• The role of the small ribosomal subunit during translation is to bind to the mRNA strand upstream of the start colon.
