Answer:

D. deamination of cytosine to uracil

Explanation:

Hydrolytic DNA damage is usually a consequence of metabolic reactions and the most common example of this type of damage is hydrolysis of cytosine into uracil with the release of ammonia. This damage can be fixed by the cell's DNA repair system:removal of uracil  by an enzyme uracil-DNA glycosylase and consequently generation of an abasic (AP) site.  AP endonucleases recognise AP site and break a phosphodiester bond so that lesion can be replaced with another cytosine.

Ivan

Eukaryotic transcripts (mRNA) have to undergo capping and splicing before it can be translated.

<h3>RNA processing:</h3>

1. An RNA transcript is first produced in a eukaryotic cell as a pre-mRNA, which needs to be converted into a messenger RNA (mRNA).

2. The RNA transcript is given a 5' cap at the start and a 3' poly-A tail at the end.

3. The process of splicing involves cutting out some RNA transcript segments (introns), then joining the remaining segments (exons) back together.

4. Some genes have the ability to alternate splices, which produces various mature mRNA molecules from the same beginning transcript.

The introns not only do not contain the information necessary to construct a protein, but they also need to be cut off in order for the mRNA to create a protein with the correct sequence. An mRNA with extra "junk" in it will be created if the spliceosome fails to remove an intron, and the translation process will result in the production of the incorrect protein.
