could be said as
monocistronic (mostly in eukaryotes) or
polycistronic (mostly in
bacteria and prokaryotes). For example,
suppose a mutation...
- general,
expression of
prokaryotic operons leads to the
generation of
polycistronic mRNAs,
while eukaryotic operons lead to
monocistronic mRNAs. Operons...
- This is the case for most of the
eukaryotic mRNAs. On the
other hand,
polycistronic mRNA
carries several open
reading frames (ORFs), each of
which is translated...

Multicistronic message is an

Polycistronic. Monocistronic,

obvious difference is that
prokaryotic ORFs are
often grouped into a
polycistronic operon under the
control of a
shared set of
