Goals: 1 - structure of messenger RNA and translation 2 - preparation of amino acids 3 - building a protein 4 components to protein synthesis (translation): 1 - mRNA Template 2 - transfer RNA (tRNA) bound to amino acids Substrate 3 - aminoacyl-tRNA sythetases (charge a.a.s) Substrate 4 - ribosomes Machinery mRNA can be translated 3 ways (3 frames) Many prokaryotic mRNAs have a Shine-Dalgarno sequence -Interacts with the ribsome to position next to start codon -Eukaryotic mRNAs may have a Kozak sequence - similar function -Other (less well understood) mechanisms function for mRNAs without these sequences Anatomy of tRNAs -All have same generic shape -Small differences allow specific tRNA to be matched with specific a.a.s “Charging” an amino acid requires ATP consumption -High-energy bond created between tRNA and a.a. -Energy used during protein synthesis -Different synthetase enzymes attach a.a. to tRNA at either the 2’ or 3’ OH of RNA Each amino acid has its own synthetase enzyme -RNA nucleotides can be modified -Clover structure results in nontraditional base pairing -Unique features of each tRNA are exploited (though not usually the anticodon) The ribosome is made of RNA and protein subunits Ribosomes are very large and complex Ribosomes assemble and disassemble with each translation event Peptide bond formation uses energy stored in the amino acid - tRNA high energy bond -Release of tRNA/formation of peptide bond is a 2 step process -The most recently added amino acid remains bound to tRNA 1 2 QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture.
