Capping Enzyme

edit

[1] [2] [3]

  1. It does not comply with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, list incorporation, etc.
  2. It lacks reliable and adequate resources. It contains some references but in-line citations are missing. The references provided are not in accordance with the layout style of guideline.
  3. It provides very little meaningful content. For example, information on the structure is missing. More information will be required
  4. It does not contain images, illustrations, charts, etc. For example, add enzyme structure, illustration of how mRNA are capped.

5S ribosomal RNA

edit

[4] [5] [6] [7]

  1. It does not comply with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, table of contents, layout, etc.
  2. It lacks reliable and adequate resources. Some in-line citations are missing.
  3. It provides some meaningful content, however more information is required e.g. location of activity
  4. A good start on the illustrations, but additional images would be helpful such as 5S ribosomal RNA interaction with other proteins.

Article Selection Rationale

edit

First, this article needs a lot of work, for it is just a Stub! Additionally, capping enzymes fall under the broad topic of Gene Expression, which is absolutely fascinating, for it governs everything! The talk page of the article indicates that this article falls within the scope of WikiProjects Genetics and WikiProject Molecular and Cellular Biology. This suggests the importance of capping enzymes, as indicated by the “Mid-importance” rating, at both the gene and cellular level. For example, the enzyme’s role in mRNA processing can impact downstream processes at the cellular level. As of now, the article is very short and not easily understandable to the average reader, and we even got a little overwhelmed by the terminology and the lack of adequate explanation. It is not a topic that we would claim to have mastered, so learning much more about this topic is an added bonus while contributing to the knowledge of others. We can do this by building upon what is currently written to provide a good overview, with illustrations, of the enzymes in regards to their structure, function and factors that impact their function, location of activity, just to name a few areas that can be covered in the article.

Unit 8 progress report

edit
  • A suggestion was made to remove the current content and replace with an update overview that is clearly referenced. No feedback was received to date on this suggestion
  • Let the original information, which will be later deleted if there are no objections to the removal
  • Added the preliminary outline to provide guidance on the structure of the article as well as to get feedback from other users on the outline
  • Updated lead section
  • Updated structure section

Unit 10 progress report

edit
  • Lead section and original data was combined to produce a general overview of the entire article
  • Function section was edited to include other mechanisms that depend on the cap
  • Wiki links were added to the lead, structure and see also sections
  • Formation of the cap section was added
  • An enzyme info box was added
  • Impact of the enzyme's activity section was added

Unit 12 progress report

edit
  • Addressed some of the reviewers comments
  • Addition of enzyme and 5'cap images
  • The Structure section was expanded to provided info on conserved sections of the enzyme
