Gene Regulation
... • Only a small fraction of DNA codes for proteins, and a very small fraction of the non-protein-coding DNA consists of genes for RNA such as rRNA and tRNA • A significant amount of the genome may be transcribed into noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) • Noncoding RNAs regulate gene expression at two points: mRN ...

Determining a Consensus Sequence Activity
... In 1986, Marilyn Kozak examined thousands of human genes to determine the consensus sequence surrounding the initiation of translation site. The sequence is called the Kozak sequence in recognition of her work. In addition to lining up the genes as you did above, Dr. Kozak made changes in the nucleo ...

Point mutation
A point mutation, or single base modification, is a type of mutation that causes a single nucleotide base change, insertion, or deletion of the genetic material, DNA or RNA. The term frameshift mutation indicates the addition or deletion of a base pair. A point mutant is an individual that is affected by a point mutation.Repeat induced point mutations are recurring point mutations, discussed below.
