A prokaryotic coding sequence includes information on coordinates of the ____ .
I. promoter elements
II. ribosome binding site (RBS)
III. open reading frame (ORF)
IV. introns

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In prokaryotic coding sequences, the information includes coordinates for promoter elements (I), which are necessary for initiating transcription, ribosome binding sites (RBS) (II), which are crucial for initiating translation, and open reading frames (ORF) (III), which indicate the region to be translated into protein. Prokaryotes do not have introns (IV), which are non-coding regions found in eukaryotic genes.
