Question
Answer
Ribosomal RNAs occur here with tRNAs   operons  
🗑
The secondary structure of the tRNAs and rRNAs is recognized by RNA’ses and used for?   processing  
🗑
1)Primary processing occurs during transcription by   RNAse III, E, F and P (ribozyme).  
🗑
2) rRNAs associate with   ribosomal proteins  
🗑
3)RNAse D M5, 16 and 23 carry out   5’ and 3’ mature end processing.  
🗑
4) Methylation, which protects the rRNA from RNAses   O2Me ribose, N6N6-dimethyl adenine.  
🗑
Prokaryotic mRNA processing   little to none  
🗑
Where does translation occur for prokaryotes?   nascent transcripts  
🗑
Eukaryotic mRNA processing involves   capping, splicing, polyadenylation  
🗑
Capping determines the site of   translation initiation  
🗑
7-methylG added co-transcriptionally via   5',5'-triphosphate linkage  
🗑
Cap can be differentially methylated where?   2'-OH positions of first two nucleotides  
🗑
cap-0   no 2’-O-methyl, predominant in unicellular organisms  
🗑
cap-1   first nt, predominant in multicellular organisms  
🗑
The CAP is involved in what?   Loading of ribosome onto mRNA during translation  
🗑
Capping: 1: The 5' terminal triphosphate of the RNA is first removed by   RNA triphosphate  
🗑
Capping: 2: GTP is added by   guanyltransferase  
🗑
Capping:3: the 7 position of guanosine is   methylated  
🗑
Capping:4: mRNA is methylated by   2'-O-methyltransferase  
🗑
In mammalian cells, primary transcripts have heterogeneous   3' ends  
🗑
All mRNAs have poly-A tails except   histone mRNA  
🗑
Poly-Adenylation requires the presence of   AAUAAA element  
🗑
The AAUAAA element is located   10-35 nt upstream of site of poly-A tail  
🗑
Poly-Adenylation also requires the presence of a U or   GU rich sequence about 50 nt downstream the cleavage site  
🗑
C & PA requires a dynamic assembly of multiprotein complexes:   CPSF, CStF, CFI, CFII  
🗑
Poly-A synthesis is catalyzed by a template independent polymerase known as   PAP  
🗑
Why doesn't PAP need a template?   Telomere has a defined sequence  
🗑
3’ Cleavage and Polyadenylation: 1: CFI and CFII cleave RNA   10-30 nuc 3' to signal  
🗑
2) PolyA polymerase adds poly A tail using   ATP  
🗑
When does the CPSF disengage from recognition site?   Tail is 10-15 nucleotides long  
🗑
3) The length of the tail is controlled by   PABII  
🗑
Multiple copies of PABII bind to the Poly A tail to   increase processivity  
🗑
4) Poly(A) binding protein (PAB) binds the tails and organizes them into   ribonucleoprotein particles.  
🗑
Besides organizing tails/particles, what does PAB do?   involved in regulating translation initiation, protect mRNA  
🗑
Unlike most prokaryotic RNA transcripts, many eukaryotic transcripts   contain introns  
🗑
Class of intron is based on its   sequence properties  
🗑
mRNA splicing is coupled with   transcription  
🗑
mRNA splicing occurs sequentially in what direction?   5' to 3'  
🗑
The transesterification reactions require   no net input of energy  
🗑
The transesterification reactions are catalyzed by   transphosphorylation reactions  
🗑
However the splicing process does require net energy input for   conformational changes in the RNA and the spliceosome.  
🗑
Spliceosome is a large complex (?) with more than 50 proteins   50-60S  
🗑
targets include nuclear pre-mRNA transcripts that   can not self splice  
🗑
introns spliced by same lariat mechanism found for   GII introns  
🗑
Eukaryotic nuclei contain numerous copies of small RNAs (60 - 300 nt long) known as   snRNA  
🗑
there are five high abundant snRNAs involved in the splicing reaction:   U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6  
🗑
What are RNAs complementary to?   Consensus sequences in the intron  
🗑
Spliceosome: 1) U1 SnRNA binds the   5’ consensus sequence.  
🗑
2) U2 SnRNA binds lariat sequence after the lariat is bound by   the branch point binding protein (BBP)  
🗑
The U2AF protein helps BBP select   the intron branch point.  
🗑
3) U5 SnRNAbinds to the   3' splice junction  
🗑
4) A complex between U4 and U6 helps   bring everything together  
🗑
5)A series of rearrangements in the spliceosome generate the correct environment for   different transesterification reactions.  
🗑
6) Once together, U1 and U4 are destabilized and   spliceosome is reactivated  
🗑
