Briefly describe the following:
(a) Transcription
(b) Polymorphism
(c) Translation
(d) Bioinformatics
Describe Griffith’s experiment to demonstrate that DNA is the basic genetic material. What observation was given by Avery, McCarty and MacCleod?
AUG codon is unique because it has double specificity, that is it codes for Methionine as well as it acts as an initiator codon to start translation
What is the inducer in the lac operon? How does it ensure the 'switching on' of genes?
Draw a schematic representation of Lac operon of how does this operon get switched ‘on’ or ‘off.
Or
Explain how the gene expression is regulated?
