Question

1) What is the DNA strand that is continuously copied during the DNA replication?

2) What is the sequence that is often observed far upstream of the GC box?

3) What is the type of sequence that you would NOT expect to observe in the mature mRNA of a typical protein-coding eukaryotic nuclear gene?

4) ________. After the "Transcription start point", usually the first sequence to get transcribed into premature-mRNA

5) _________ & __________ In mature mRNA, the sequence for the "Translation start point" would be located between and adjacent to these two sequences.

Explanation / Answer

Answers :

Q1 : Leading strand is the one that get synthesised continuously during DNA replication. The other strand called lagging strand synthesised discontinuously. This is why DNA replication is termed as semi-discontinuous synthesis.
