Length of PolyA tail is different in two cells

Explanation:

  • Different lengths of Poly A tails are present for different mRNAs so when we compare two peptides translated in two different cells we have different lengths of PolyA tail
  • PolyA tail is basically a long chain of nucleotides(adenine nucleotides) which are added to messenger RNA(mRNA) during processing of RNA
  • It increases the stability of the molecule
  • It protects the mRNA molecule from undergoing degradation in the cytoplasm
  • It is involved in binding proteins which further initiates translation;introns are removed from pre mRNA before the final mRNA is exported into cytoplasm

Which of the following is not a function of<br> Proteins
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:  

anything contrary to the information provided below

Explanation:

Proteins determine the shape and structure of cells and the direction of almost all vital processes. Protein functions are specific to each of them and allow cells to maintain their integrity, defense of external agents, damage repair, control and regular functions, etc. selective binding to molecules. Structural proteins agree with other molecules of the same protein to cause a larger structure. However, other proteins bind to different molecules: antibodies to specific antigens, hemoglobin to oxygen, enzymes to their substrates, regulators of genetic expression to DNA, hormones to their specific receptors, etc.
