Which of the following statements is/are correct with reference to the protein-coding genes?

Which of the following statements is/are correct with reference to the protein-coding genes?

A. Protein-coding sequences or protein-coding genes are DNA sequences that get transcribed on ribonucleic acid (RNA) as an intermediate step.

B. Proteins carry out the instructions encoded in the genes.

C. Both A & B

D. None of these

Explanation:

On May 27, a preprint titled The complete sequence of the human genome was posted in the online repository bioRxiv. In this preprint, scientists from the Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) Consortium, an international collaboration of around 30 institutions, reported the most complete sequencing of the human genome until now. Protein-coding sequences or protein-coding genes are DNA sequences that get transcribed on ribonucleic acid (RNA) as an intermediate step. Proteins carry out the instructions encoded in the genes.
