- Once a primary RNA transcript is created from a DNA template, it must be modified in several ways before becoming messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA) or transfer RNA (TRNA). The following image shows RNA processing of one pre-mRNA into mRNA. Note that pre-RNA is processed in three ways: 1) a 5' methylguanylate cap (G cap) is added, 2) a poly-A tail is added, and 3) the spliceosome removes introns from the pre-mRNA transcript. Please redraw the following diagram and label the following on your diagram: DNA Promoter pre-mRNA (unprocessed) mRNA *5' methylguanylate cap *polyadenylation *Exon (may be more than one) *Intron (may be more than one) Transcription RNA processing AAAAA PART C: FOLLOW-UP QUESTIONS 1.

- A normal mRNA that reads 5’ – UGCCAUGGUAAUAACACAUGAGGCCUGAAC– 3’ has an insertion mutation that changes the sequence to 5’ -UGCCAUGGUUAAUAACACAUGAGGCCUGAAC– 3’. Translate the original mRNA and the mutated mRNA, and explain how insertion mutations can have dramatic effects on proteins. (Hint: Be sure to find the initiation site.)) A normal mRNA that reads 5'- UGCCAUGGUAAUAACACAUGAAGGCCUGAAC-3' was an insertion mutation that changes the sequence to 5'- UGCCAUGGUUAAUAACACAUGAGGCGUGAAC-3'. Translate the original mRNA and the mutated mRNA and explain how insertion mutations can have dramatic effects on proteins. ( Hint; Be sure to find the initiation site).The flu virus maximizes the use of its limited (13.5 kb) genome by using alternative translation initiation sites, overlapping reading frames, and ribosomal frameshifting. For example, part of the viral PA gene includes a rarely used CGU codon. When the ribosome pauses to translate this codon, it may slip ahead by one nucleotide and produce a polypeptide with a diff erent C-terminal sequence. From the partial mRNA sequence shown here, determine the normal polypeptide sequence and the sequence with the frameshift.
