In the final step of translation, a stop codon is recognized by _____ and the completed polypeptide is released from the ribosome

Where is most mRNA / tRNA synthesized?_____

Lac Operon: Increased cAMP (low glucose) leads to activation of _____, which resides upstream from the promoter, causing increased transcription

Within an enhancer, there are domains known as _____, to which specific transcription factors bind

In what part of the cell is mRNA translated?_____

mRNA quality control occurs at _____, which contain exonucleases, decapping enzymes, and microRNAs

Transcription occurs throughout which cell cycle phases?_____

Promoters serve as binding sites for _____ transcription factors (general/specific)
