  2. Transfer RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_RNA

    [29] [30] The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has 275 tRNA genes in its genome. The number of tRNA genes per genome can vary widely, with bacterial species from groups such as Fusobacteria and Tenericutes having around 30 genes per genome while complex eukaryotic genomes such as the zebrafish (Danio rerio) can bear more than 10 thousand ...

    [10] [12] Eight of the 9 genes on the heavy strand code for mitochondrial tRNA molecules. Human mtDNA consists of 16,569 nucleotide pairs. The entire molecule is regulated by only one regulatory region which contains the origins of replication of both heavy and light strands. The entire human mitochondrial DNA molecule has been mapped.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_(biology)

    The P/E-site holds the tRNA with the growing polypeptide chain. When an aminoacyl-tRNA initially binds to its corresponding codon on the mRNA, it is in the A site. Then, a peptide bond forms between the amino acid of the tRNA in the A site and the amino acid of the charged tRNA in the P/E site.

  6. Gene structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_structure

    Regulatory sequences are located at the extremities of genes. These sequence regions can either be next to the transcribed region (the promoter) or separated by many kilobases (enhancers and silencers). [8] The promoter is located at the 5' end of the gene and is composed of a core promoter sequence and a proximal promoter sequence.

  7. RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA

    In the cytoplasm, ribosomal RNA and protein combine to form a nucleoprotein called a ribosome. The ribosome binds mRNA and carries out protein synthesis. Several ribosomes may be attached to a single mRNA at any time. [27] Nearly all the RNA found in a typical eukaryotic cell is rRNA. Transfer-messenger RNA (tmRNA) is found in many bacteria and ...

  8. Non-coding DNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-coding_DNA

    The main features of replication origins are sequences where specific initiation proteins are bound. A typical replication origin covers about 100-200 base pairs of DNA. Prokaryotes have one origin of replication per chromosome or plasmid but there are usually multiple origins in eukaryotic chromosomes.

  9. SARS (gene) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SARS_(gene)

    SARS and cytoplasmic seryl-tRNA synthetase are a human gene and its encoded enzyme product, respectively. [4] [5] SARS belongs to the class II amino-acyl tRNA family and is found in all humans; its encoded enzyme, seryl-tRNA synthetase, is involved in protein translation and is related to several bacterial and yeast counterparts.
