1. Use Figure 22.3 to determine which template strand DNA sequence (written in the 5' → 3' direc on) specifies the tripeptide with the sequence gly‐ala‐leu.
A) GGGGCTCTC B) CTCTCGGGG C) CCCCGAGAG D) GAGAGCCCC 2. Which is not true about the genetic code? A) Some amino acids share the same codon. B) The first two nucleotides of a codon are often enough to specify a given amino acid. C) Some codons do not specify an amino acid. D) Nearly all organisms use the same genetic code. 3. The unambiguity and degeneracy of the genetic code can best be respectively exemplified by which of the following?
A) UUU and UUC both code for Phe; UUU codes only for Phe.
B) UUU codes only for Phe; UUU and UUC both code for Phe.
C) UUU codes for both Phe and Ser; UUU and UUC both code for Phe and Ser.
D) UUU and UUC both code for Phe and Ser; UUU codes for both Phe and Ser.

Overview
• Genetic Code
• tRNA structure
• Aminoacyl‐tRNA
synthetase
• Ribosome structure
• Next lecture: initiation, elongation, termination
Codons
• Three letter codons
– Why 3?
• Overlapping vs
nonoverlapping
• 5’3’

Genetic Code
• Unambiguous: Each codon has one and only one amino acid
• Degenerate: most amino acids have multiple codons (Leu has 6 codons)
• First two nucleotides (5’) often contain all information for amino acid (Gly—any others?)
• Similar codons often have similar AA
– Thr/Ser and Glu/Asp minimize mutations
• Stop codons (termination codon)
• Initiation codon

tRNA structure
• Tertiary structure
• Anticodon arm
• Acceptor stem

Primary and Secondary Structure
• Anticodon
• Antiparallel base pairing with mRNA

Wobble
• 5’ site of anticodon is less demanding in complementarity
• Remember‐‐3’ of codon
• Inosinate often found at 5’
– Capable of more H‐
bonding
– Less selective

Aminoacyl‐tRNA Synthetase
• tRNA serves to match the amino acid to the codon
• Requires covalent attachment of amino acid to tRNA
• A key step in fidelity of message even prior to initiation, elongation, termination!
• 20 synthetases serve to recognize correct AA and covalently attach isoacceptor tRNAs
Aminoacyl tRNA Synthetase Reaction

•
Covalently attach amino acid to acceptor arm
High energy bond
“activated’ amino acid
Costs 2 ATP equivalents
