  2. DNA and RNA codon tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_and_RNA_codon_tables

    DNA and RNA codon tables. The standard RNA codon table organized in a wheel. A codon table can be used to translate a genetic code into a sequence of amino acids. [1][2] The standard genetic code is traditionally represented as an RNA codon table, because when proteins are made in a cell by ribosomes, it is messenger RNA (mRNA) that directs ...

  3. Start codon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Start_codon

    In this genomic region, the two genes overlap. The start codon is the first codon of a messenger RNA (mRNA) transcript translated by a ribosome. The start codon always codes for methionine in eukaryotes and archaea and a N-formylmethionine (fMet) in bacteria, mitochondria and plastids. The start codon is often preceded by a 5' untranslated ...

  4. Ribbon diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribbon_diagram

    Ribbon diagram. Ribbon diagrams, also known as Richardson diagrams, are 3D schematic representations of protein structure and are one of the most common methods of protein depiction used today. The ribbon depicts the general course and organisation of the protein backbone in 3D and serves as a visual framework for hanging details of the entire ...

  5. Cheating (biology) - Wikipedia

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

    Cheating is a term used in behavioral ecology and ethology to describe behavior whereby organisms receive a benefit at the cost of other organisms. Cheating is common in many mutualistic and altruistic relationships. [1] A cheater is an individual who does not cooperate (or cooperates less than their fair share) but can potentially gain the ...

    t. e. Molecular biology / məˈlɛkjʊlər / is a branch of biology that seeks to understand the molecular basis of biological activity in and between cells, including biomolecular synthesis, modification, mechanisms, and interactions. [1][2][3] Though cells and other microscopic structures had been observed in living organisms as early as the ...

  8. Protein domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_domain

    In molecular biology, a protein domain is a region of a protein 's polypeptide chain that is self-stabilizing and that folds independently from the rest. Each domain forms a compact folded three-dimensional structure. Many proteins consist of several domains, and a domain may appear in a variety of different proteins.
