Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes

Fig. 17-9 Transcription Termination in Eukaryotes: Transcribes the sequence AAUAAA Signals for the RNA transcript to be cleaved.
14
Transcription Termination Sequences In Prokaryotes, transcription stops by way of as transcribed terminator. This is part of the transcription sequence that signals RNA polymerase to detach. (Hairpin theory) In Eukaryotes, transcription stops when a polyadenylation signal AAUAAA occurs. Proteins then cleave the RNA transcript off.

Minute Paper: We have ~20,000 genes yet we can make ~100,000 different protein products. How is this possible if DNA RNA Protein?

25
Alternative Splicing Some genes can encode more than one kind of polypeptide, depending on which segments are treated as exons during RNA splicing. Such variations are called alternative RNA splicing. Because of alternative splicing, the number of different proteins an organism can produce is much greater than its number of genes.

Translation
33
Transfer RNA (tRNA) bridges RNA language and amino acid language
34
Transfer RNA (tRNA) Single-stranded RNAs of about 74 - 95 nucleotides – On one “end”, they hold an amino acid – On the other “end”, they bind to mRNA There are about 45 different tRNAs in eukaryotic cells
