The ribosome binding site that contains the free tRNA prior to its release.
Industry:Biotechnology
The RNA molecule produced by transcription prior to any post-transcriptional modifications; also called a pre-mRNA in eukaryotes.
Industry:Biotechnology
The RNA molecules which are essential structural and functional components of ribosomes, the organelles responsible for protein synthesis. The different rRNA molecules are known by their sedimentation (Svedberg; symbol S) values. <i>E. coli</i> ribosomes contain one 16S rRNA molecule (1541 nucleotides long) in the same (small) sub-unit and a 23S rRNA (2904 nucleotides) and a 5S rRNA (120 nucleotides) in the large sub-unit. These three rRNA molecules are synthesized as part of a large precursor molecule which also contains the sequences of a number of tRNAs. Special processing enzymes cleave this large precursor to generate the functional moieties.
Industry:Biotechnology
The RNA transcript of a protein-encoding gene. The information encoded in the mRNA molecule is translated into a polypeptide of specific amino acid sequence by the ribosomes. In eukaryotes, mRNAs transfer genetic information from the DNA to ribosomes, where it is translated into protein.
Industry:Biotechnology
The scientific tradition that stresses the relationship between a physical structure and its function, e.g., the related disciplines of anatomy and physiology.
Industry:Biotechnology
The second filial generation, produced by crossing two members of the F<sub>1</sub>, or by self-pollinating the F<sub>1</sub>. The "grandchildren" of a given mating.
Industry:Biotechnology
The section of a patent that states, in detail, the uses and possible applications of the invention described in the patent.
Industry:Biotechnology
The section of the young root or shoot just behind the apical meristem, in which the cells are enlarging and elongating rapidly.
