TERM 23 non-sense mutation DEFINITION 23 it mutates and forms an early stop coding and ends up with a short protein. TERM 24 Shine-Dalgarno sequence DEFINITION 24 The Shine-Dalgarno sequence, proposed by Australian scientists John Shine (b.1946) and Lynn Dalgarno (b.1935), is a ribosomal binding site in the mRNA, generally located 8 basepairs upstream of the start codon AUG. TERM 25 AUG paring DEFINITION 25 Its the starting signal TERM 26 F' x F- DEFINITION 26 F' and there is a gene transfer TERM 27 F+ x F- DEFINITION 27 it produces F+ and there is no gene
