    Minor correction: Eukaryotic RNA polymerases have ~12 subunits (in the video at around 11:20 I wrongfully said that it is ~26). I confused 26 from the fact that it is the number of YSPTSPS repeats in yeast CTD (humans have 52 repeats, yeast have 26).
    Additional fact: Plants also have RNA polymerase V that is involved in a similar non-essential function as RNA polymerase IV. To read more about them, check out www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4618083/

    The best explanation there is on UA-cam for transcription ....... I've searched for a video like this for quite a time now and i finally found It.....Thank you soo much

    It must be that mRNA produced must be in 3 to 5 direction, complementary to DNA template strand

    Hi, thanks for the super-useful video!
    A small doubt: Why rRNA is most abundant in the cell compared to mRNA and tRNA? Can we tell because most mRNA gets converted to proteins and is unstable when not bound to ribosomes. But rRNA are stable as they are bound to ribosomes?

    • @theCrux
      @theCrux  Рік тому

      Ribosomes are in excess of mRNAs. mRNAs tend to be reused to make proteins - same mRNA can be used for translation for as long as it is around in the cytoplasm, so you don't have a lot of them to begin with. Typically you have around 100k - 300k mRNAs per cell vs millions of rRNA because you have way too many ribosomes. The excess of ribosomes means translation is immediate.

    Sir,I have a question : the RNA polymerase works in 5 to 3 direction of DNA template, then y does it produce mRNA in the 5 to 3direction???

    • @theCrux
      @theCrux  4 роки тому +1

      RNA polymerase moves from 3' of the template to the 5' - the resulting RNA has 5' end coming out first (so the RNA is 5' > 3'). The chemistry of synthesis is such that you can only synthesize nucleic acids in 5' > 3' direction. The enzyme on the other hand may move in either direction.

    Is it really true though that prokaryotic dna is not associated with proteins? That's a historical misconception isn't it?
    Just 2 months ago I learned about H-NS.

    • @theCrux

      True, prokaryotic DNA is not naked DNA. It does have a lot of proteins associated with it - just not the same level of compaction provided by associated structural organizers we see in eukaryotes. H-NS, NAPs, HUs, FIS and many more are great examples of prokaryotic DNA organizers. I should have been more careful with my choice of words (at the cost of over-simplification) in this video. Thanks for pointing it out!

    You know, if only that scientist named the transcription factors alphabetically instead of that weird arbitrary rules this wouldn't be that hard lol
