So here we've got a little picture of an mrna, and we have our 5 prime cap, we have our 5 prime utr, we've got our exons right here, we've got our 3 prime utr, and we've got our polly -a tail.
00:16
So the 5 prime and the 3 -prime utr are going to be non -coding, and then these exons are going to be the coding.
00:25
And this is where proteins are going to be made.
00:29
So in this video we're going to be focusing on the 5 -prime utr.
00:34
So proteins that can bind to the 5 prime utr are going to be called rna binding proteins, or rbps for short, and they bind the utr.
00:47
They can bind either one, they combine the 3 prime or the 5 prime.
00:50
And what they are going to do is they are going to increase or decrease the stability...
