Solutions

Expert Solution

  • ribosomal RNA (rRNA) are components of ribosomes.
  • Genes encoding rRNA are formed by DNA regions with highly repetitive sequences.
  • It is present in core of nucleus in form of tandem repeats.
  • rRNA transcription occurs in the nucleolus or NOR (nucleolar organizer region.

Answer: Nucleolus.

Erythromycin is best against bacteria because it targets bacterial ribosomal subunits and not eukaryotic ribosomal subunits. What does this mean??
Two ribosomal subunits have sedimentation coefficients of 60S and 40S.
Two ribosomal subunits have sedimentation coefficients of 60S and 40S. Assuming that both subunits have spherical shapes and their densities are equal, calculate the ratio of their molecular weights ( not with the actual molecular weight values).

  Match the site on the ribosomal subunits (select A, P, or E) to each of the following reaction.  The docking site for N-formylmethionine (fMet) tRNA  Binding site for the uncharged tRNA before it leaves the ribosome Peptidyl transferase center  Decoding center  Binding site for IF-3  Binding site for IF-1  Binding sites for incoming charged tRNA  Binding site for the deacylated tRNA  Binding of the EF-G occurs at this site  Binding site for the tRNA attached to the growing peptide...

A reticulate lysate is a system that contains all the components required for translation (ribosomal subunits, tRNA, amino acids, etc) and allows the reaction to be carried out in a test tube. The polypeptide that is synthesized from the system depends on the sequence of the RNA. For example adding the RNA 5’AUGUUUUUUUUUUUU to the lysate directs the synthesis of Met-Phe-Phe-Phe-Phe. 10a. If you add an antibiotic stops translation by specifically blocking the translocation of tRNA from the A site...

a. Outline the steps of the ribosome cycle. At what stage do the ribosomal subunits bind to each other? To mRNA? What causes them to dissociate when protein synthesis is complete? In detail. b. Outline the steps by which aminoacyl tRNA synthetases charge tRNAs. How can some organisms get away with having fewer than 20 synthetases, yet still charge tRNAs with all 20 amino acids? In detail.
