Order! Order!
Genes are made of DNA, a large, complex molecule. DNA is composed of
individual units called nucleotides. Three of these units form a code. The
order, or sequence, of a code and the type of code determine the meaning
of the message.
1. On a sheet of paper, write the word cats. List the letters or units that
make up the word cats.
2. Try rearranging the units to form other words. Remember that each
new word can have only three units. Write each word on your paper,
and then add a definition for each word.
3. Did any of the codes you formed have the same meaning?
4. How do you think changing the order of the nucleotides in the
DNA codon changes the codon’s message?

A Perfect Copy
When a cell divides, each daughter cell receives a complete set of
chromosomes. This means that each new cell has a complete set of the
DNA code. Before a cell can divide, the DNA must be copied so that there
are two sets ready to be distributed to the new cells.

1. On a sheet of paper, draw a curving or zig-zagging line that divides the
paper into two halves. Vary the bends in the line as you draw it. Without
tracing, copy the line on a second sheet of paper.
2. Hold the papers side by side, and compare the lines. Do they look the
same?
3. Now, stack the papers, one on top of the other, and hold the papers up
to the light. Are the lines the same?
4. How could you use the original paper to draw exact copies of the line
without tracing it?
5. Why is it important that the copies of DNA that are given to new
daughter cells be exact copies of the original?

Information, Please
DNA contains the information that a cell needs to carry out all of its
functions. In a way, DNA is like the cell’s encyclopedia. Suppose that you go
to the library to do research for a science project. You find the information in
an encyclopedia. You go to the desk to sign out the book, but the librarian
informs you that this book is for reference only and may not be taken out.
1. Why do you think the library holds some books for reference only?
2. If you can’t borrow a book, how can you take home the information in it?
3. All of the parts of a cell are controlled by the information in DNA, yet DNA
does not leave the nucleus. How do you think the information in DNA
might get from the nucleus to the rest of the cell?

Determining the Sequence of a Gene
DNA contains the code of instructions for cells. Sometimes, an error occurs
when the code is copied. Such errors are called mutations.

1. Copy the following information about Protein X: Methionine—
Phenylalanine—Tryptophan—Asparagine—Isoleucine—STOP.
2. Use Figure 12–17 on page 303 in your textbook to determine one possible
sequence of RNA to code for this information. Write this code below the
description of Protein X. Below this, write the DNA code that would produce
this RNA sequence.
3. Now, cause a mutation in the gene sequence that you just determined by
deleting the fourth base in the DNA sequence. Write this new sequence.
4. Write the new RNA sequence that would be produced. Below that, write the
amino acid sequence that would result from this mutation in your gene. Call
this Protein Y.
5. Did this single deletion cause much change in your protein? Explain your
answer.

Regulation of Protein Synthesis
Every cell in your body, with the exception of gametes, or sex cells,
contains a complete copy of your DNA. Why, then, are some cells nerve
cells with dendrites and axons, while others are red blood cells that have
lost their nuclei and are packed with hemoglobin? Why are cells so
different in structure and function? If the characteristics of a cell depend
upon the proteins that are synthesized, what does this tell you about
protein synthesis? Work with a partner to discuss and answer the
questions that follow.

1. Do you think that cells produce all the proteins for which the DNA
(genes) code? Why or why not? How do the proteins made affect the
type and function of cells?
2. Consider what you now know about genes and protein synthesis. What
might be some ways that a cell has control over the proteins it
produces?
3. What type(s) of organic compounds are most likely the ones that help
to regulate protein synthesis? Justify your answer.

1. On a sheet of paper, write the word cats. List the letters or units that make
up the word cats.
The units that make up cats are c, a, t, and s.
2. Try rearranging the units to form other words. Remember that each
new word can have only three units. Write each word on your paper, and
then add a definition for each word.
Student codes may include: Act; Sat; Cat
3. Did any of the codes you formed have the same meaning?
No
4. How do you think changing the order of the nucleotides in the DNA codon
changes the codon’s message?
Changing the order of the nucleotides changes the meaning of the codon.

1. On a sheet of paper, draw a curving or zig-zagging line that divides the paper
into two halves. Vary the bends in the line as you draw it. Without tracing,
copy the line on a second sheet of paper.
2. Hold the papers side by side, and compare the lines. Do they look the same?
Lines will likely look similar.
3. Now, stack the papers, one on top of the other, and hold the papers up to the
light. Are the lines the same?
Overlaying the papers will show variations in the lines.
4. How could you use the original paper to draw exact copies of the line without
tracing it?
Possible answer: Cut along the line and use it as a template to draw the line
on another sheet of paper.
5. Why is it important that the copies of DNA that are given to new daughter
cells be exact copies of the original?
Each cell must have the correct DNA, or the cell will not
have the correct characteristics.

1. Copy the following information about Protein X: Methionine—Phenylalanine—
Tryptophan—Asparagine—Isoleucine—STOP.
2. Use Figure 12–17 on page 303 in your textbook to determine one possible sequence of
RNA to code for this information. Write this code below the description of Protein X.
Below this, write the DNA code that would produce this RNA sequence.
Sequences may vary. One example follows: Protein X: mRNA: AUG-UUU-UGG-AAUAUU-UGA; DNA: TAC-AAA-ACC-TTA-TAA-ACT
3. Now, cause a mutation in the gene sequence that you just determined by deleting the
fourth base in the DNA sequence. Write this new sequence.
(with deletion of 4th base U) DNA: TAC-AAA-CCT-TAT-AAA-CT
4. Write the new RNA sequence that would be produced. Below that, write the amino acid
sequence that would result from this mutation in your gene. Call this Protein Y.
mRNA: AUG-UUU-GGA-AUA-UUU-GA Codes for amino acid sequence: Methionine—
Phenylalaine—Glycine—Isoleucine—Phenylalanine—?
5. Did this single deletion cause much change in your protein? Explain your answer.
Yes, Protein Y was entirely different from Protein X.
Interest Grabber Answers
1. Do you think that cells produce all the proteins for which the DNA (genes)
code? Why or why not? How do the proteins made affect the type and
function of cells?
Cells do not make all of the proteins for which they have genes (DNA).
The structure and function of each cell are determined by the types of
proteins present.
2. Consider what you now know about genes and protein synthesis. What
might be some ways that a cell has control over the proteins it produces?
There must be certain types of compounds that are involved in determining
what types of mRNA transcripts are made and when this mRNA translates
at the ribosome.
3. What type(s) of organic compounds are most likely the ones that help to
regulate protein synthesis? Justify your answer.
The type of compound responsible is probably a protein, specifically
enzymes, because these catalyze the chemical reactions
that take place.
