Hi erix,
I am sorry for not mentioning the full terms in my post.
Transcript is the mature RNA sequence that encodes a protein. Transcript is produced from DNA by the process of transcription. It starts with ATG and usually ends with TAA, TAG or TGA.
5 prime UTR (5' UTR) stands for untranslated region found in primary mRNA or pre-mRNA at one end of DNA strand with a phosphate group. It is a sequence of nucleotides.
3 prime UTR (3' UTR) means a sequence of nucleotides which is untranslated and found at the other end of a transcript with a hydroxyl group (OH).
