Title: How many gene products are required to form this structure? Post by: Susan on Aug 18, 2010 A cellular structure is composed of 20 proteins that have identical structures. How many gene products are required to form this structure?
Title: How many gene products are required to form this structure? Post by: duddy on Aug 18, 2010 Hey,
This one is easy. The cellular structure can be a capsid, for instance, which is the protein shell where all the species genome is held. To produce such a structure 1 prominent gene is required. This gene is translated several times, but transcribed only once as a mode of saving cellular energy. |
