Transcript
Starter
• Read 11.4
▫ Answer concept checks 2-4
Starter
• Read page 236 in a book from the back
• Compare and contrast DNA and RNA
• Define transcription, translation, and codon
RNA vs DNA
• DNA – deoxyribose
• RNA – ribose
RNA vs DNA
• RNA
▫ A-U
▫ G-C
• DNA
▫ A-T
▫ G-C
• RNA is single stranded
• DNA is double stranded
Protein Synthesis
Protein Synthesis
• Creating proteins
• Most complex construction in the cell
• Numerous molecules and energy
▫ Single gene encodes the information for a single
protein
 GENE = Section of DNA that codes for a protein.
• DNA  RNA  Proteins
Transcription – Step 1 of Protein
Synthesis
• DNA transcribed into mRNA
1. Enzyme unwinds DNA
2. mRNA gets constructed
 Enzyme bonds the RNA nucleotides
together using the DNA gene as its
template
3. mRNA leaves the DNA strand and
nucleus
 Goes to the cytoplasm
4. DNA reforms with its hydrogen
bonds
• Read Page 238
▫ Answer question 1 on page 241
• Go through transcription using the bold and
underlined sequence as your gene sequence.
3’ – TACGGCCCCTAATGCAAAATT – 5’
5’ – ATGCCGGGGATTACGTTTTAA – 3’
3’ – TACAATGTTACCTGCGTCACT – 5’
5’ – ATGTTACAATGGACGCAGTGA – 3’
Starter
• Explain transcription.
Translation – Step 2 of protein
synthesis
1. Ribosome attaches to the mRNA
in the cytoplasm
 mRNA divided into codons
 These codons are sections of 3 mRNA
nucleotides
▫They code for a protein by:
▫ Determining the order of specific amino
acids
◦ tRNA reads mRNA Codon by codon
tRNA
• Decodes mRNA to proteins
• One end forms base pairs with mRNA
▫ Anticodon
• Opposite end
▫ Site for AA
Translation – Step 2 of protein synthesis –
after the ribosome is attached
2. Initiation
▫ Start codon (AUG)
3. Elongation
▫ Amino acids are being added to each
other
 Codon by codon
4. Termination
▫ mRNA has stop codon
▫ No AA
• Protein is complete
Assignment
• Read Pages 239-241
▫ Ignore the top of the page (Editing RNA)
▫ Answer concept Checks 3 and 4.
▫ Write down a question about something you don’t
understand with protein synthesis.

sequences:
