Multiple genes coding for multiple proteins in one transcription unit, e.g. e. Coli K-12 MG1655 gene thrL and e. Coli K-12 MG1655 gene thrA are both prat of the E. Coli K-12 MG1655 operon thrLABC.

A sequence of mRNA that can actually be transcribed.

For an example, see E. Coli K-12 MG1655 operon thrLABC.

Multiple different transcription units can be produced by a single operon, see: operon vs transcription unit.

Boring!

This didn't really deliver. It does start from the basics, but it is often hard to link those basics to more interesting or deeper points. Also like many other Quantum field theory book, it does not seem to contain a single comparison between a theoretical result and an experiment.
