  2. Messenger RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messenger_RNA

    A 5' cap (also termed an RNA cap, an RNA 7-methylguanosine cap, or an RNA m 7 G cap) is a modified guanine nucleotide that has been added to the "front" or 5' end of a eukaryotic messenger RNA shortly after the start of transcription. The 5' cap consists of a terminal 7-methylguanosine residue that is linked through a 5'-5'-triphosphate bond to ...

  3. RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA

    Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a polymeric molecule that is essential for most biological functions, either by performing the function itself (non-coding RNA) or by forming a template for the production of proteins (messenger RNA). RNA and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are nucleic acids.

  4. Neural plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_plate

    The progenitor cells that make up the precursors to neural tissues in the neural plate are called neuroepithelial cells. [citation needed] Stretched over the notochord, the ectodermal cells on the dorsal portion of the embryo are ultimately the ones that form the neural plate. Approximately half of those cells will be induced to remain ectoderm ...

  5. Silencer (genetics) - Wikipedia

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

    Proper neural folding. Specialized cells called the notochord (A) induces ectoderm above it to become the primitive nervous system. (B) Neural tube forms (C) Gives rise to the brain and spinal cord. (D) Neural crest cells will migrate to different regions throughout the embryo to initiate development of glia, pigments, and other neural ...

  6. Stem-loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem-loop

    In RNA, adenine-uracil pairings featuring two hydrogen bonds are equal to the adenine-thymine bond of DNA. Base stacking interactions, which align the pi bonds of the bases' aromatic rings in a favorable orientation, also promote helix formation. The stability of the loop also influences the formation of the stem-loop structure.

  7. Polyadenylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyadenylation

    The 5′ end is the part of the RNA molecule that is transcribed first, and the 3′ end is transcribed last. The 3′ end is also where the poly(A) tail is found on polyadenylated RNAs. [1] [9] Messenger RNA (mRNA) is RNA that has a coding region that acts as a template for protein synthesis (translation).

    According to Kukushkin, the memories stored in non-brain cells in other parts of the body are memories strictly related to the roles that those specific cells play in human health. Thus, he detailed:

  9. Nucleic acid structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_structure

    Stem-loop or hairpin loop is the most common element of RNA secondary structure. [8] Stem-loop is formed when the RNA chains fold back on themselves to form a double helical tract called the 'stem', the unpaired nucleotides forms single stranded region called the 'loop'. A tetraloop is a four-base pairs hairpin
