Processing of Pre-snoRNA | Biotechnology

In this article we will discuss about the processing of pre-snoRNA into mature RNA. Small nucleolar RNAs are families of small RNAs involved in RNA metabolite and gene expression in eukaryotes. Their major function is in processing and modification of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). In plants, the 5.8S 18S and 28S rRNA of the cytoplasm ribosomes are produced by processing a [...]

Describe the Parts of a Nucleotide | Biology

A nucleotide is composed of a nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and a phosphate group. Part # 1. A Nitrogenous Base: It is a nitrogen-containing organic molecule having similar physical properties of a base. There are two types of nitrogenous bases: (a) Purines Adenine and Guanine. (b) Pyrimidines Cytosine, Uracil and Thymine. Out of the pyrimidines, cytosine is common for both [...]
