Question

Difference between transcription in prokaryotes and eukaryotes

Answer 1

Answer:

Prokaryotes only contain three different promoter elements: -10, -35 promoters, and upstream elements. Eukaryotes contain many different promoter elements: TATA box, initiator elements, downstream core promoter element, CAAT box, and the GC box to name a few. Eukaryotes have three types of RNA polymerases, I, II, and III, and prokaryotes only have one type. Eukaryotes form and initiation complex with the various transcription factors that dissociate after initiation is completed. There is no such structure seen in prokaryotes. Another main difference between the two is that transcription and translation occurs simultaneously in prokaryotes and in eukaryotes the RNA is first transcribed in the nucleus and then translated in the cytoplasm. RNAs from eukaryotes undergo post-transcriptional modifications including: capping, polyadenylation, and splicing. These events do not occur in prokaryotes. mRNAs in prokaryotes

A prokaryote is a unicellular organism that lacks a membrane-bound nucleus, mitochondria, or any other membrane-bound organelle. The word prokaryote comes from the Greek πρό and κάρυον. Prokaryotes are divided into two domains, Archaea and Bacteria

EukaryoticCells

Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a nucleus enclosed within membranes, unlike prokaryotes, which have no membrane-bound organelles. Eukaryotes belong to the domain Eukaryota or Eukarya.
