Bellwork
 What are the three parts of a DNA
nucleotide?
 What would the complementary strand
of DNA look like (nitrogen bases)?
A T G C C G T T A A C G
 What would the complementary
mRNA strand look like?
DNA Structure
 Double Helix.
 made up of millions of tiny subunits called
Nucleotides.

Nucleotides
 Phosphate and sugar backbone
 the nitrogen bases form the “rungs”.
 There are four types of nitrogenous bases.
Nucleotides
 Each base will only bond with one other
specific base (Chargaff’s Rule, or Base-Pair Rule).
 Adenine (A)
 Thymine (T)
 Cytosine (C)
 Guanine (G)
Form a base pair.
Form a base pair.
 Complementary
base pairing:
 the order of the
bases in one
strand
determines the
order of the
bases in the
other strand.

Agenda 12/19- Protein Synthesis
 Bellwork
 Essential Question: How does DNA code for
proteins? How does DNA determine the
structure and function of an organism?
 New information: Protein synthesis
(transcription and translation)
 Activity: Protein Synthesis practice worksheet

Protein Synthesis Overview
•DNA is the genetic material
within the nucleus.
DNA
• Transcription creates an
mRNA using DNA information.

•Translation creates a

Protein Synthesis Overview
•Sections of DNA that code for
proteins are called GENES.
A Gene
• GENES determine what
proteins are made and
therefore what traits an
organism has.
DNA
Transcription
RNA
• A gene does not build proteins
directly. It sends instructions in
the form of mRNA which directs
protein synthesis.

Types of RNA
 mRNA = messenger RNA
 Made during transcription
 Carries a complementary copy of the DNA code out of
the nucleus for protein synthesis on a ribosome
Types of RNA
 mRNA = messenger RNA
 tRNA = transfer RNA
 Transfers amino acids to the ribosome for protein
synthesis
 Found in the cytoplasm
 rRNA = ribosomal RNA
Transcription
 First the DNA is “unzipped”.
 Complementary RNA nucleotides are added to the
template strand, forming the new RNA molecule.

TRANSCRIPTION
 RNA polymerase attaches
mRNA nucleotides to the DNA template:
 Guanine

What happens after transcription?
 The new mRNA molecule (and DNA) has more
information than is required for making the
protein.
 The parts that aren’t directly needed for
making the protein are called INTRONSthey stay IN the nucleus.
What happens after transcription?
 The new mRNA molecule (and DNA) has more
information than is required for making the
protein.
 The parts that are needed for making the
protein are called EXONS- they EXit the
nucleus after being spliced together.
Translation
 The process of reading the RNA sequence of an
mRNA and creating the amino acid sequence of a
protein.

Protein Synthesis Overview
• Transcription creates mRNA
from DNA information- happens
in nucleus.
•Translation creates protein
using RNA information; happens
at a ribosome (in cytoplasm or
on rough ER).

Frameshift mutation: caused by insertion or deletion
of fewer (or more) than 3 nucleotides; usually results
in all codons after that point being altered.
Gene Mutations
When the code is changed due to a mutation,
the amino acid sequence may be altered,
resulting in changes in the protein (or no
protein at all).
