How is Prokaryotic Transcription process different in eukaryotes?
Advertisements
Solution
Differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic transcription:
| Prokaryotic Transcription | Eukaryotic Transcription |
| 1. It occurs in the cytoplasm | 1. It occurs in the nucleus. |
| 2. There is no specific period for prokaryotic transcription to occur. | 2. It occurs in the G1 and G2 phases. |
| 3. Products of transcription become effective in situ. | 3. Transcription products come out of the nucleus for functioning in the cytoplasm. |
| 4. mRNA is generally polycistronic | 4. mRNA is generally monocistronic. |
