  2. Polyadenylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyadenylation

    [33] [34] CPSF is in contact with RNA polymerase II, allowing it to signal the polymerase to terminate transcription. [35] [36] When RNA polymerase II reaches a "termination sequence" (⁵'TTTATT 3 ' on the DNA template and ⁵'AAUAAA 3 ' on the primary transcript), the end of transcription is signaled. [37]

  3. Three prime untranslated region - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_prime_untranslated...

    In molecular genetics, the three prime untranslated region (3′-UTR) is the section of messenger RNA (mRNA) that immediately follows the translation termination codon. The 3′-UTR often contains regulatory regions that post-transcriptionally influence gene expression.

  4. Terminator (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminator_(genetics)

    In genetics, a transcription terminator is a section of nucleic acid sequence that marks the end of a gene or operon in genomic DNA during transcription.This sequence mediates transcriptional termination by providing signals in the newly synthesized transcript RNA that trigger processes which release the transcript RNA from the transcriptional complex.

  5. Termination signal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Termination_signal

    Termination of transcription occurs due to termination signal. In molecular biology , a termination signal is a sequence that signals the end of transcription or translation . [ 1 ] Termination signals are found at the end of the part of the chromosome being transcribed during transcription of mRNA .

  6. Transcription (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcription_(biology)

    Simple diagram of transcription elongation. One strand of the DNA, the template strand (or noncoding strand), is used as a template for RNA synthesis. As transcription proceeds, RNA polymerase traverses the template strand and uses base pairing complementarity with the DNA template to create an RNA copy (which elongates during the traversal).

  7. Post-transcriptional modification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-transcriptional...

    The pre-mRNA processing at the 3' end of the RNA molecule involves cleavage of its 3' end and then the addition of about 250 adenine residues to form a poly(A) tail.The cleavage and adenylation reactions occur primarily if a polyadenylation signal sequence (5'- AAUAAA-3') is located near the 3' end of the pre-mRNA molecule, which is followed by another sequence, which is usually (5'-CA-3') and ...

  8. Open reading frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_reading_frame

    That start codon (not necessarily the first) indicates where translation may start. The transcription termination site is located after the ORF, beyond the translation stop codon. If transcription were to cease before the stop codon, an incomplete protein would be made during translation. [3]

  9. Adenine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenine

    Adenine (/ ˈ æ d ɪ n iː n /, / ˈ æ d ɪ n ɪ n /) (symbol A or Ade) is a purine nucleotide base. It is one of the nucleobases in the nucleic acids, DNA and RNA. The shape of adenine is complementary to either thymine in DNA or uracil in RNA. In cells adenine, as an independent molecule, is rare.
