How does DNA instruct cells to make PROTEINS? 1 Part I DNA, Genes, and Proteins DNA and genes • Some stretches of DNA are called genes. • Genes are stretches of nucleotide bases (DNA) that code for proteins. • Proteins are used to build cells and do much of the work inside cells. Genes and Proteins • Each gene code is copied in the nucleus and taken to the cytoplasm. • Here the code is deciphered and converted into a string of amino acids (a protein) • Each different protein has its own gene, somewhere on the chromosome, that codes for it. 4 Part II COPYING THE GENE DNA cannot leave the nucleus of eukaryotic cells... but proteins are made outside of the nucleus by organelles called ribosomes human cheek cell Elodea leaf cell mitochondria chloroplasts vacuole nucleus (DNA here) (DNA here) 6 Think of ribosomes as factories that make proteins ribosomes (proteins made here) (proteins made here) nucleus (DNA here) (DNA here) 7 DNA and ribosomes are at different locations in a prokaryotic cell. ribosomes (proteins made here) DNA Q. Ribosomes make protein but are not in the same location as DNA in a cell. How can proteins be made according to the DNA information when they are in different places? 8 A. Take a copy of the Gene to the ribosome. • mRNA transfers a copy of the gene on the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes. • Ribosomes build proteins according to the mRNA information received. 9 mRNA: the messenger RNA is how the body gets information from the nucleus (DNA) to the place where protein gets made (ribosomes) 10 Information flow from DNA to trait DNA Stored in nucleus protein Made by ribosomes outside of nucleus Observed trait 11 Information flow from DNA to trait DNA Stored in nucleus messenger RNA protein Made by ribosomes outside of nucleus Observed trait 12 DNA information mRNA information DNA messenger RNA Transcription is the process used to convert DNA information into mRNA information. Note: DNA does not become RNA; the information in DNA is copied as RNA 13 Part III RNA (Ribonucleic acid) and Transcription What is RNA, anyways? How is it different than DNA? 15 Differences between DNA and RNA DNA Double strand RNA Single strand Deoxyribose sugar Ribose sugar Contains thymine (and A, G, & C) Contains uracil (and A, G, & C) Very large molecule Small molecule 16 Different Sugars DNA RNA 17 Can you spot the difference? Different Bases Can you spot the difference? 18 RNA IS COPIED FROM DNA DNA (double stranded, kept “safe” in nucleus) Genes are Copied RNA (single stranded - mobile) 19 The Transcription process • Promoters are a specific set of bases on DNA that show where a gene begins. • For transcription to occur, the enzyme RNA polymerase binds to DNA at the promoter and separates the DNA strands • RNA Polymerase then uses one strand of DNA as a template to assemble nucleotides into a copy of the gene (mRNA) 20 The Transcription Process • Terminators! Are a specific set of bases to show where the gene ends. • RNA polymerase stops copying the gene here, moves off to find another gene, the transcript is released and the DNA “zips” back up. 21 Transcription of RNA from a template strand of DNA 22 Transcription DNA zips back together DNA unzips DNA ACTTTACGGCAT ACTTTACGGCAT TGAAATGCCGTA RNA copy made ACUUUACGGCAU TGAAATGCCGTA RNA ACTTTACGGCAT TGAAATGCCGTA ACUUUACGGCAU 23 If the DNA sequence is this: TACGAGTTACATAAA ATGCTCAATGTATTT What is the sequence of the mRNA?

The Genetic Code “The Problem” • Somehow we need to read the order of nucleotides on mRNA and have that tell us the order of amino acids within each protein • As there are 20 amino acids and only 4 different bases each nucleotide on its own cant specify the position of a different amino acid 27 The genetic code “The solution” • If a word can only be a single letter long how many words can there be in the English language? • If we can have two letters form a word how many words can we make now? (aa, ab, ac, ba, bb, bc, etc.) • If two nucleotides can code for an amino acid how many amino acids can we code for? • There are 64 possible ways to combine three nucleotides (43). More than enough to code for 20 amino acids. 28 The Codon • A codon is a set of three nucleotides on mRNA and designates an amino acid • There are 20 amino acids, but 64 possible codons • So each amino acid may have more than one codon that codes for it. 29 A Codon Chart •Decode by reading the first then second then third base. •Example: AUG codes for Methionine 30 Part IV Turning mRNA into protein: Translation Introducing…. Another RNA molecule; the final player in our story… tRNA 32 Transfer RNA (tRNA) • An RNA molecule with attachment site at one end for an amino acid. • The opposite end has three nucleotide bases called the anticodon. • If there are 64 possible codons how many different tRNA molecules do you think there are? 33 Transfer RNA amino acid attachment site Amino acid U A C anticodon 34 Codons and Anticodons The 3 bases of an anticodon are complementary to the 3 bases of a codon Amino Acid tRNA anticodon UGA GCAAUCACUACGGCA codon 35 Translation • Translation is the process of of decoding the mRNA into a protein. • Ribosomes read mRNA three bases or 1 codon at a time and construct the proteins 36 1.
