Given below are two statements.
Statement I A fully processed
, has cap of methylated guanine at
end followed successively by an initiation codon, a long coding region, a termination codon and a poly-A tail of adenine at
end.
Statement II In eukaryotes
is a polycistronic as it is transcribed from many cistron.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsC
Both statement I and statement II are incorrect and can be corrected as
A fully processed
RNA has its
end capped with methylated guanine followed successively by an initiation codon, a long coding region, a termination codon and a poly-A tail of many adenine-containing nucleotides at
end. In eukaryotes,
RNA carries information for one polypeptide only. It is monocistronic because it is transcribed from a single cistron.
