** In lichens, the algal component is called phycobiont and fungal component is known as mycobiont, which are autotrophic and heterotrophic respectively. ** Viroid contains RNA of low molecular weight and no protein coat. ** A virus contains either
Embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells can be efficiently transfected with cloned DNAs but there is a strong tendency for expression from transfected genes to be lost from stably transformed cells. To investigate the mechanism responsible for this loss of expression, we transfected P19 EC cells with a ...
During viral infection, TLR3 and TLR7/8 recognize double-stranded RNA and single-stranded RNA, respectively. Additionally, in plasmacytoid dendritic cells, TLR9 is responsible for the recognition of CpG DNA, leading to the production of type I IFNs (1, 2). The IFN response to nucleic acids ...
Do RNA viruses replicate faster than DNA viruses? In which viruses are the flow of information from RNA to DNA? 1. DNA 2. RNA 3. Both RNA and DNA 4. Neither RNA nor DNA. What is the difference between RNA viruses, DNA viruses, and...
Germ granules are membrane-less organelles essential for small RNA biogenesis and germline development. Among the conserved properties of germ granules is their association with the nuclear membrane. Recent studies demonstrated that LOTUS domain proteins
Structurally, the monomers of RNA contain the sugar and the nitrogenousbases bases and. Disaccharides: a. are made of one sugar molecule b. are found in cheese c. all contain glucose d. all of these Sucrose is composed of A) two molecules of fructose. B) two molecules of glucose. C) ...
Furthermore, the case with both a FUS and TARDBP mutation reveals an intriguing pathological profile which at least in part involves a very unusual staining pattern for the ubiquitin-binding protein p62. Introduction The discovery of the TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43) as a component of ...
DNA size standards are shown on the right. We investigated whether any pkc53E isoform is expressed in photoreceptors by comparing the expression between wild-type and glass (gl) mutants that lack photoreceptors (19). We first demonstrated that mRNA for the PB/PC/PE group is present in wild-...
Introns are found in the protein-coding genes of prokaryotes. (a) True (b) False. Both prokaryote and eukaryote has one start codon 5?-AUG-3?. True False RNA polymerase I is responsible for the transcription of DNA to produce mRNAs in eukaryotes. a. True b. False ...
In biology, cell organelles are defined as the organelles or components of the cell. The organelles of the cell are bound inside a membrane or commonly called membrane-bound organelles. Some commonly known membrane-bound organelles are the nucleus, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, and en...
