DNA: genes on chromosomes DNA is composed of nucleotides A Nucleotide has: - Deoxyribose Sugar - Phosphate - Nitrogen Base Adenine Thymine Guanine Cytosine A - T and G - C DNA is a helix molecule Hydrogen bonds are in between the bases. Note the nucleotides pairing. DNA self replicates before cell division 5’ 3’ The DNA strand opens and will add nucleotides. A to T and G to C. C A G T One strand grows continuously, the other grows discontinuously. Enzymes join the strands. 3’ 5’ DNA produces proteins in two steps Transcription: mRNA production Translation: protein production Transcription is when the mRNA produced. mRNA from DNA as expected…….. GGG CCC TTT AAA CCC GGG AAA UUU The bases of the DNA are matched up with the RNA bases A-U, T-A, G-C, C-G AAA TTT GGG CCC GGG CCC TAA UUU AAACCC GGG CCC GGG AUU Synthesis starts at the beginning of a gene Transcription moves in a 5’ to 3’ direction Transcription finishes as mRNA is released The DNA triplets help code for amino acids during translation because DNA is in control of the triplets of mRNA (the codon). The anticodon of the tRNA matches this codon on the ribosome and brings with it an amino acid.

Video of Protein Synthesis. On the ribosome mRNA codons match tRNA anticodons linking amino acids Steps to Protein Synthesis • Transcription: Production of mRNA by DNA in nucleus. Base pairs match up A to U and G to C (RNA has no Thymine). • Translation: In the cytoplasm, on the ribosome, the mRNA codon matches tRNA anticodon to bring the proper amino acid in for bonding. Once the whole mRNA is read by the ribosome, the stop codon ends the production of the peptide chain; the protein is complete! How is RNA different than DNA? •Ribose Sugar •Uracil for Thymine •Single strand •not self replicating •found all over the cell • Nucleolus - Site of ribosome production • Nucleus - location of DNA, cell organizer • Chromosomes - coiled chromatin • Chromatin - DNA and proteins not coiled • DNA - helix shaped molecule with base sequences that make up the genetic code • RNA - made by DNA, assists DNA to make proteins as a messenger (mRNA), transfer molecule (tRNA) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA).
