Transcription unit . It has three components:
1. A promoter
2. The structural gene
3. A terminator
TYPES OF RNA
There are 3 types of RNA: mRNA (messenger RNA), trna (transfer
RNA) and rRNA(ribosomal RNA).
1) mRNA :-
It is also called template/nuclear/informational RNA as it carries
genetic information provided by DNA , leaves the cell nucleus and
moves to the cytoplasm where the proteins are made.
It is the longest of all RNA and constitutes 5% of total RNA in cell.
2)rRNA:-
It is the component of the ribosome, which is essential for the protein
synthesis.
It is the predominant RNA in the cell, comprising around 80% of total
cellular RNA and it also has a catalytic role during translation.
In eukaryotes , 4 types of rRNA) s found are 28s, 18s, 5.85s and 5s
whereas, in prokaryotes three types of rRNA) s found are 23s, 16s and
5s. It is the most stable type of RNA.
