Although E. coli may have translated it correctly, it might not have the same enzymatic<span> modification process present in the original organism where the genetic sequence was taken from. It might be worth trying this enzymatic modification, also called p</span><span>ost-translational modification - it is done in order to make some changes to the produced protein (such as introducing a phosphate group) making it functional.</span>
Three questions that focuses on the cause and effect relationship between the genetic code and gene expression, mechanisms of gene regulation and/or the role of DNA segments that is not involved in coding the proteins are:
i. Illustrate the process of translation and explain it with the help of a diagram.
ii. What are codons? Name the stop codons in eukaryotes.
iii. What are exons and introns? Explain what happens to the introns during the process of transcription and translation?
Answer:
c. decaying plant and animal remains
Bacteria in our gut help to protect us by crowding out some of their dangerous relatives that can cause disease. Other good bacteria have been used in medicine to create antibiotics, and others still are used in food production to make fermented foods (think sauerkraut, yogurt, kimchi and kombucha.)
