Question

What would happen if the 5’ methyl guanosine was not added to an mRNA? a. The transcript would degrade when the mRNA moves out of the nucleus to the cytoplasm. b. The mRNA molecule would stabilize and start the process of translation within the nucleus of the cell. c. The mRNA molecule would move out of the nucleus and create more copies of the mRNA molecule. d. The mRNA molecule would not be able to add the poly-A tail on its strand at the 5’ end.

Step 1

This cap plays a crucial role in the stability, nuclear export, and translation initiation of the mRNA. If the 5' methyl guanosine cap is not added to an mRNA: a. The transcript would degrade when the mRNA moves out of the nucleus to the cytoplasm: This is Show more…
