Anticodon: Group of three bases on a tRNA molecule that are complementary to the three bases of a codon of mRNA.
Codon: group of three nucleotide bases in mRNA that specify a particular amino acid to be incorporated into a protein.
Differentiation: process in which cells become specialized in structure and function.
Exon: expressed sequence of DNA; codes for a protein.
Frameshift mutation: Mutation that shifts the "reading frame" of the genetic message.
Gene expression: Process in which a gene produces its product and the product carries out its function.
Genetic code: Collection of codons of mRNA, each of which directs the incorporation of a particular amino acid into a protein during protein synthesis.
Homeobox gene: The homeobox is a DNA sequence of approximatly 130 base pairs, found in many homeotic genes that regulate development.
Homeotic gene: A class of regulatory genes that determine the identity of body parts and regions in an animal embryo.
Hox gene: A group of homeotic genes clustered together that determine the head to tail identity of body parts in animals.
Intron: Sequence of DNA that is not involved in coding for a protein.
Messenger RNA: Type of RNA that carries copies of instructions for the assembly of amino acids into proteins from DNA to the resto of the cell.
Mutation: Change in the genetic material of a cell
Mutagen : Chemical of physical agents in the environment that interact with DNA and may cause a mutation.
Operator : Short DNA region, adjacent to the promoter of a prokaryotic operon
Operon: In Prokaryotes, a group of adjacent genes that share a common operator or promoter and are transcribed into a single mRNA.
Point mutation: gene mutation in which a single base pair in DNA has been changed.
Polypeptide: long chain of amino acids that makes proteins.
Polyploidy: condition in which an organism has extra sets of chromosomes.
Promoter: specific region of a gene where RNA polymerase can bind and begin transcription.
Ribosomal RNA: type of RNA that combines with proteins to form ribosomes.
RNA polymerase: enzyme that links together the growing chain of RNA nucleotides during transcription using a DNA strand as a template.
RNA interference: introduction of double-stranded RNA into a cell to inhabit gene expression.
RNA: Single-stranded nucleic Acid that contains the sugar ribose.
Transcription: synthesis of an RNA molecule from a DNA template.
Transfer RNA: type of RNA that carries each amino acid to a ribosome during protein synthesis.
Translation: process by which the sequence of bases of an mRNA is converted into the sequence of amino acids of a protein.
