Full Description
This exam focuses on the detailed processes of genetic transcription and translation, specifically analyzing how messenger RNA is synthesized from DNA and how this RNA is subsequently used to produce proteins.
Understanding these mechanisms is essential for elucidating how genes govern cellular functions and biological traits, thereby impacting fields such as genetic engineering, biotechnology, and medical research.
The exam will assess the candidate's ability to articulate theoretical frameworks, including transcriptional regulation, the roles of various RNA polymerases, and the significance of ribosomes in protein synthesis.
Candidates may also be invited to discuss specific gene regulation mechanisms, including both prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems in the context of modern molecular biology.
Sample Questions
- What are the key steps involved in the transcription of a gene?
- How do ribosomes facilitate protein synthesis in cells?
