Name_____________________________________Date__________________Period________ Protein Synthesis Practice Molecules of DNA carry the genetic instructions for protein formation. Converting these DNA instructions into proteins requires a series of coordinated steps in transcription and translation. Complete the following table. 1. Complete column B by writing the correct mRNA codon for each sequence of DNA bases listed in the column marked DNA Base Sequence. Use the letters A, U, C or G. 2. Identify the process responsible by writing its name in the process box in column A. 3. Complete column D by writing the correct anticodon that binds to each codon from column B. 4. Identify the process responsible by writing its name in the process box in column C. 5. Complete column E by writing the name of the correct amino acid that is coded by each base sequence. Use a codon chart to translate the mRNA base sequences to amino acids. DNA base sequence AAT GGG ATA AAA GTT A Process B mRNA Codon C Process D tRNA Anticodon E Amino Acid Analysis: 1. Where within the cell: a. Are the DNA instructions located? ______________________________________ b. Does transcription occur? _____________________________________________ c. Does translation occur? _______________________________________________ 2. Describe and draw the structure of a tRNA molecule: 3. Explain why specific base pairing is essential (of vital importance) to the processes of transcription and translation.
