Estimate the time needed for E coli RNA polymerase at 37 C t

Estimate the time needed for E. coli RNA polymerase at 37 ?C to transcribe the entire gene for a 50-kilodalton protein. What assumption or assumptions must be made for this estimate to be accurate?

Check All that apply

amount of the protein amino acid residues

amount of introns

operon organization

promoter localization

activity of the RNA polymerase

time needed for initiation and formation of a stable transcription complex

amount of sites for alternative splicing

Solution

Correct answers would be:
