hnRNA undergoes two additional process. Out of them in one process an unusual nucleotide (methyl GPT) is added to the 5 ' end of molecule. What would you called this?

Options

  1. ATailing
  2. BSplicing
  3. CTermination
  4. DCapping

Correct answer

D. Capping

Step-by-step solution

The process of addition of methyl GPT at the 5′5^{\prime} end of hnRNA is known as capping. Enzyme guanly transferase catalyses this process. Cap is essential for the formation of mRNA-Ribosome complex. Translation is not possible if cap is lacking, because cap is identified by 18 SrRNA of ribosome unity.
