Method for determining mRNA half-lives.

RNA polymerase II transcription is shut down, either by a drug or a temperature shift in strains with a temperature sensitive mutation in a Pol II gene. The levels of specific mRNAs are determined by northern blot or RT-PCR at various times following shutdown.

#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology

Since the hydrogen donor (N, O, or F) is strongly electronegative, it pulls the covalently bonded electron pair closer to its nucleus, and away from the hydrogen atom.

The hydrogen atom is then left with a partial positive charge, creating a dipole-dipole attraction between the hydrogen atom bonded to the donor and the lone electron pair of the acceptor. This results in a hydrogen bond.
