1Which of the following statements is false about translatio

1)Which of the following statements is false about translation?

A) stop codons mark the end of translation

B) translation occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotes

C) ribosome proteins assemble before binding to mRNA

D) protein folding may start during translation

2) The coding-strand sequence from gene X is DNA 5’-CTTAGTGCAAAATTT -3’. Write the mRNA sequence that would be transcribed: 5\'-________________-3\'. (Start at the 5’ end of the RNA and type only the nucleotide single-letter codes, do not include any numbers or symbols.)

Solution

(1)

B) translation occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotes

C) ribosome proteins assemble before binding to mRNA

(2) Coding DNA is mRNA like except that it has Thymine residues, while mRNA has uracil residues.

DNA 5’-CTTAGTGCAAAATTT -3’

mRNA - 5’-CUUAGUGCAAAAUUU -3’
