  2. Terminator (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminator_(genetics)

    In genetics, a transcription terminator is a section of nucleic acid sequence that marks the end of a gene or operon in genomic DNA during transcription.This sequence mediates transcriptional termination by providing signals in the newly synthesized transcript RNA that trigger processes which release the transcript RNA from the transcriptional complex.

  3. Antitermination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antitermination

    Among these genes, however, are regulators whose products allow the next set of phage genes to be expressed. One of these types of regulator is an antitermination protein. In the absence of the antitermination protein, RNA polymerase terminates at the terminator. When the antitermination protein is present, it continues past the terminator. [1]

  4. Termination signal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Termination_signal

    Termination signals play an important role in regulating gene expression since they mark the end of a gene transcript and determine which DNA sequences are expressed in the cell. [1] Expression levels of certain genes can be increased by inhibiting signal terminators, known as antitermination , which allows for transcription to continue beyond ...

    The GURT process is typically composed of four genetic components: a target gene, a promoter, a trait switch, and a genetic switch, sometimes with slightly different names given in different papers. [5] A typical GURT involves the engineering of a plant that has a target gene in its DNA that expresses when activated by a promoter gene.

  6. Stop codon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_codon

    In this genomic region, the two genes overlap. In molecular biology, a stop codon (or termination codon) is a codon (nucleotide triplet within messenger RNA) that signals the termination of the translation process of the current protein. [1]

  7. Termination factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Termination_factor

    In molecular biology, a termination factor is a protein that mediates the termination of RNA transcription by recognizing a transcription terminator and causing the release of the newly made mRNA. This is part of the process that regulates the transcription of RNA to preserve gene expression integrity and are present in both eukaryotes and ...

    That's the route that Terminator: Dark Fate took, and while that particular plot point proved divisive, it served as a reminder that the franchise has first and foremost been Sarah's story. And ...

  9. Intrinsic termination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrinsic_termination

    Here, there is no extra protein and the transcript forms its own loop structure. Intrinsic termination thus regulates the level of transcription as well, determining how many Polymerase can transcribe a gene over a given period of time, and can help prevent interactions with neighboring chromosomes.
