Randy Carroll November 04 2004 Marshall/7/Bio10H P189 1 3 4 6; p192 1-5; p196 1 2 3 5 6; p197 Vocab 10.1 10.3 P189 1 3 4 6 1. The main functions of DNA are is to store and transmit genetic information that tells cells which protein to make and when to make them. 3. The base pairing rules describe the pairing behavior of the bases. These rules state that cytosine bonds with guanine and adenine bonds ith thymine. 4. Enzymes bind to the DNS to separated chaisn of DNA. 6. P192 1-5 1. Transcription is the process where information is copied from DNA to RNA. During transcription, RNA polymerises binds to the promoter of a specific gene. The DNA makes a copy of those using RNA nucleotides. 2. The structure of RNA is a single helix and that thiamine is rarely part of the RNA molecules. 3. Messenger RNA: consists of RNA nucleotides and carries genetic information in nucleus to the cytosol of a eukaryotic cell. 4. During transcription, polymerase initiates the RNA transcription process by binding it to promoters. It adds one nucleotide at a time until the termination signal drops by. 5. P196 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 1. Transcription is the copying of DNA while Translation is the process of putting together the polypeptides from information in Messenger RNA strands. 2. A codon is a combination of three messenger RNA nucleotides. They contain the codes for specific amino acids. The anticodon is the codon opposite. They are attached to the transfer RNAs 3. 4. 5. The start codon is needed so activates the ribosome to start DNS translation. All polypeptides for sending messages contain the start and stop codons. 6. Vocabulary for 10.1 and 10.3 10.1 Adenine: One of the four nitrogen-containing bases found in the DNA nucleotides. Base pairing rule: Cytosine bonds with guanine and adenine bonds with thiamine. Complementary Base Pair: Guanine and thiamine and guanine and cytosine. Cytosine: Pairs with guanine. Deoxyribose: A sugar with in DNA DNS Polymerase: Enzymes that bind to separated chains of DNA. Double Helix: The structural shape of DNA. Guanine: Pairs with cytosine. Helicase: The chains made in DNA separated by Enzymes. Mutation: An error in the replication process of DNA. Nitrogen-Containing Base: An atom surround by oxygen that contains nitrogen. Purine: Pyrimidine: Bases that have one ring of carbon and nitrogen atoms. Replication: The process of DNA making two copies of itself. Replication Fork: The point where two chains of DNA separate. Thiamine: Pairs with cytosine. 10.3 Anticodon: The opposite to the codon. The other part of the helix. Codon: Combination of three nucleotides. Genetic Code: The nucleotide and amino acid sequence. Protein Synthesis: The production of proteins. Stop Codon: The ending sequence for transcription Start Codon: The beginning sequence for transcription. Translation: The process of assembling polypeptides.
