17. Mechanism of
Nucleotide polymerization
OH group of one nucleotide attach with
the phosphate group of another nucleotide
to make the phosphodiester linkage in
the RNA chain.

24. 5' capping in eukaryotic transcription
• 5' capping is post transcriptional modification
• Protected RNA from exonuclease
• Help to transport from nucleus to cytoplasm
26. 5' capping in eukaryotic transcription
Guanosine tri-phosphate
GTP added with 5’ end of RNA by guanyl transferase
27.
28. G ‘0’ cap
G ‘1’ cap
G ‘2’ cap
5' capping in eukaryotic transcription
29. Translation in eukaryotes
Translation divided into
1. Initiation
2. Elongation
3. Termination
Initiation
1. Pre-initiation Complex
2. Attachment of mRNA with Pre initiation complex
3. Scanning of mRNA to find out first codon
4. Make Functional unit for translation
