RNA structure 2.6.U2 DNA differs from RNA in the number of strands present, the base composition and the type of pentose. 跟DNA比起来,RNA分子是比较短的片段,一般从几倍到上千个核苷酸长。它是单链结构,骨架中的五碳糖是核糖,碱基则是GACU,U替代了DNA中的T。RNA的种类有三种,mRNA(messenger RNA)...
DNA, RNA, GENES AND CHROMOSOMES Ronald J Trent PhD, BSc(Med), MB BS (Sydney), DPhil (Oxon), FRACP, FRCPA, in Molecular Medicine (Third Edition), 2005 Double Helix DNA comprises two polynucleotide strands twisted around each other in the form of a double helix (Figure 2.1). Each stra...
It should be easy to detect RNA which is complementary to one or the other of the highly reiterated sequences in the light or heavy strands. We find however, less than 1 in 60,000 complementary molecules in RNA from liver, spleen or kidney cells. These sequences may not, therefore, be...

Fig. 1.Simplified view of the core components of the mitochondrial DNA replisome. Helicase opens the DNA fork separating the two strands. The leading strand, is replicated directly by the DNA polymerase, and the lagging strand, is initially bound by SSB proteins for later replication. In other...
“Both the strands of DNA are not copied during transcription”.Choose the correct reasons from the following.A. If both strands of DNA act as a template, RNA would be coded with different sequences, leading to formation of two different polypeptide chai
RNA in ensuring genome stability. It is currently unclear exactly how RNA molecules participate in the repair pathways, although many models have been proposed and it is possible that RNA acts in diverse ways to facilitate DNA repair. A number of well-documented DNA repair factors have been ...
A DNA damage can be a chemical addition or disruption to a base of DNA (creating an abnormal nucleotide or nucleotide fragment) or a break in one or both chains of the DNA strands. When DNA carrying a damaged base is replicated, an incorrect base can often be inserted opposite the site ...
In vitro, both PRC1 and PRC2 can recognize R-loops and open DNA bubbles. Unexpectedly, we find that PRC2 drives formation of RNA-DNA hybrids, the key component of R-loops, from RNA and dsDNA. Our results identify R-loop formation as a feature of Drosophila PREs that can be recognized...
