  2. Catabolite activator protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catabolite_activator_protein

    Catabolite Activator Protein (blue) bound to a piece of DNA (red). In cell biology, catabolite activator protein (CAP), which is also known as cAMP receptor protein (CRP), is a trans-acting transcriptional activator in bacteria that effectively catalyzes the initiation of DNA transcription by interacting with RNA polymerase in a way that causes the DNA to bend.

  3. Messenger RNA - Wikipedia

    5' cap structure. A 5' cap (also termed an RNA cap, an RNA 7-methylguanosine cap, or an RNA m 7 G cap) is a modified guanine nucleotide that has been added to the "front" or 5' end of a eukaryotic messenger RNA shortly after the start of transcription. The 5' cap consists of a terminal 7-methylguanosine residue that is linked through a 5'-5 ...

    [94] 40S and 60S are light and heavy components of the ribosome, 80S is the assembled ribosome bound to mRNA, eIF4F is a translation initiation factor, PABC1 is the Poly-A binding protein, and "cap" is the mRNA cap structure needed for mRNA circularization (which can be the normal m7G-cap or modified A-cap).

  5. Five-prime cap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-prime_cap

    In molecular biology, the five-prime cap (5′ cap) is a specially altered nucleotide on the 5′ end of some primary transcripts such as precursor messenger RNA. This process, known as mRNA capping , is highly regulated and vital in the creation of stable and mature messenger RNA able to undergo translation during protein synthesis .

  6. Small nuclear RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_nuclear_RNA

    The pre-snRNA are transcribed and receive the usual 7-methylguanosine five-prime cap in the nucleus. They are then exported to the cytoplasm through nuclear pores for further processing. In the cytoplasm, the snRNA receive 3′ trimming to form a 3′ stem-loop structure, as well as hypermethylation of the 5′ cap to form trimethylguanosine. [4]

  7. Anatomical pathology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_pathology

    Anatomical pathology (Commonwealth) or anatomic pathology (U.S.) is a medical specialty that is concerned with the diagnosis of disease based on the macroscopic, microscopic, biochemical, immunologic and molecular examination of organs and tissues.

  8. Adeno-associated virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adeno-associated_virus

    The molecular weights of these proteins are 87, 72 and 62 kiloDaltons, respectively. [50] The AAV capsid is composed of a mixture of VP1, VP2, and VP3 totaling 60 monomers arranged in icosahedral symmetry in a ratio of 1:1:10, [ 51 ] with an empty mass of approximately 3.8 MDa . [ 52 ]

  9. N1-Methylpseudouridine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N1-methylpseudouridine

    N1-Methylpseudouridine is the methylated derivative of pseudouridine.It is used in in vitro transcription and for the production of RNA vaccines. [3] [4] In vertebrates, it stimulates significantly less activation of the innate immune response compared to uridine, [5] while the translation is stronger.
