Transcription

signals to inhibit the NF-kB (nuclear factor kappa beta) proteins by keeping them in inactive states and isolating them in the cytoplasm, this inhibits the NF-kB transcription factors and blocks the NF-kB transcription factors from binding with DNA. NF-kB is a protein complex that is responsible for controlling cytokine production, transcription of DNA, cell survival, and plays a key role in regulating the body’s immune response to infection. It is important for IkBa is be present in cells and…

2005 and Johnson, 2004). Corticosteroids are steroid hormones that target the intracellular glucocorticoid receptor (GR) (figure 1). This can lead to up or down-regulation of gene transcription. It can also influence transcription factors directly in the cytosol to reduce proinflammatory effects of the associated transcription factors (Johnson, 2004). Since salbutamol and other β2-agonists and corticosteroids are often prescribed simultaneously for chronic asthma, two questions need to be asked:…

As stated, it is important for qualitative studies to ensure rigor. Rigor occurs “when strict conduct, accepted specialty standards, and rational interpretation are present” (Yang, 2012). It is important for our research to promote rigor because we want our research to have strength. There are multiple ways that we can ensure rigor within our research. One way that we can do is the following: “a log of decisions needs to be maintained, and reflective journals help to enhance rigor” (Polit & Beck…

A. What is the purpose of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)? List the four main components of a PCR. (2 points) The purpose of a PCR is to make large amounts of DNA segments from just a specific DNA sequence. This method is used to scientifically prove if a suspect of committing a crime is truly the person who committed the crime. The four main components of a PCR are: DNA from a sample, nucleotides A, T, G, C, DNA polymerase, and primers. B. What is gene expression? List the two steps of…

central dogma There are three classes of sequential biopolymers that encode information: DNA, RNA, and protein. The central dogma of microbiology describes the ways in which information flows among these three classes: DNA replication (DNA to DNA), transcription…

identical to each other(McGraw-Hill). Transcription is the process in which DNA is converted to RNA. Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) is a polymeric molecule. RNA is involved in protein synthesis, and it is sometimes even in the transmission of genetic information. The main job of RNA is to transfer genetic information that is needed for the creation of proteins from the nucleus to the ribosome. Without RNA proteins could never be made (News-Medical). Transcription is the process of making an RNA copy…

RNA polymerase attaches itself to a template of DNA and then go into base pairing, synthesizes mRNA or messenger RNA. This is called transcription, as the DNA code being transcribed into mRNA code. RNA replaces Thymine for Uracil during base pairing. 4. mRNA leaves the nucleus and enters the cytoplasm this goo like part of the cell where ribosomes can be found. 5. Ribosomes are involved in…

the cell can re-use. Louis Lapierre, an assistant professor of molecular biology, cell biology and biochemistry at Brown, and his colleagues wanted to see if they could increase autophagy by manipulating a transcription factor that regulates autophagic activity. In order for the transcription…

Ling-Yu Guo and Sarita Eisenberg examined whether the outcome of language sample analysis in the total number of words (TNW), number of different words (NDW), and mean length of C-units in morphemes (MLCUm) differed in 1, 3, 7, 10, or 22 minute language samples. (Guo & Eisenberg, 2015, p.144) Children participating in this study were from the ages of 3;0 to 3;11. There were a total of 29 girls and 31 boys. Twenty-four of these children were from Buffalo, NY, while the rest were from…
