Why does telomerase have to have a built-in template for dna synthesis?

Biology
1 answer:
Marta_Voda [28]3 years ago

Telomerase is involved in adding DNA to the end of the lagging strand.

At the ends of linear chromosomes (telomeres), telomerase uses its built-in RNA template to extend the parent DNA template near the end of the lagging strand, providing room for an RNA primer so that lagging strand synthesis can be completed to the end of the chromosome

Komok [63]

Answer:

1. RNA polymerase binds to the promoter.

2. DNA strands are unwound and separated

3. The complementary RNA nucleotides are added.

Take a look at the attached picture. First, the RNA polymerase must bind to the promoter region to initiate the whole process. DNA must be unwound by DNA helicase, then it will make the RNA transcript, which consists of adding the complementary RNA nucleotides to the DNA strand. Then the transcript leaves the nucleus and begins translation.

How do microorganisms affect the quality of soil?
insens350 [35]
The microorganisms found in soil are important because they affect the structure and fertility of soil. Certain bacteria responsible for nitrogen fixation converts nitrogen in the atmosphere, so that it can be used by plants. Because of microbes, nutrients and minerals are made available to plants. Soil with more diverse microbe will result in fewer plant diseases and better crop yield.
