Name ________________________________________________________ Pd. ___________ # __________ Gene Expression REVIEW Packet Transcription & the Big picture 1. Fill-in-the-blank General Summary Like DNA, ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a ________________ acid—a molecule made of nucleotides linked together. RNA differs from DNA in three ways. First, RNA consists of a __________________ strand of nucleotides instead of the two strands found in DNA. Second, RNA nucleotides contain the five-carbon sugar ________________ rather than the sugar deoxyribose found in DNA nucleotides. And third, RNA has a nitrogen base called ________________ (abbreviated as U) instead of the base ________________ (T) found in DNA. No thymine (T) bases are found in RNA. Like thymine, uracil is complementary to ________________ whenever RNA base-pairs with another nucleic acid. 2. Defining and comparing Replication and Transcription a-Define the following processes: -Replication -Transcription b-Comparing the two processes. Think about this, and try to give 2 items for each box: How are these two processes SIMILAR How are these two processes DIFFERENT? 3. RNA vs DNA Decide if each statement describes DNA only, RNA only, both, or neither. Then check the appropriate column or columns (or neither!) DNA a b c d e f g h i j k RNA made of nucleotides single strand of nucleotides double helix contains amino acids contains uracil contains thymine contains adenine contains sugar contains deoxyribose contains ribose contains phosphate l m n o p q r s t DNA is a nucleic acid contains a base that pairs with adenine used as a template for making nucleic acid used in transcription used in replication used in translation does not leave the nucleus leaves the nucleus has more than one form RNA 1 4. Location, location, location… •Where within the cell does each of the following occur? a-replication? ____________________________ b-transcription? ____________________________ c-translation? ____________________________ 5. Transcription Practice •Transcribe mRNA from the following DNA segments: a-CTCCGAT b-TAACGTAGTTC c-ATTGCTAGT #6 6. Transcription Labeling #1 In transcription, RNA polymerase splits the two halves of a strand of DNA. RNA then uses one half as a template to make a copy of the other half. RNA contains the nucleotide uracil instead of the nucleotide thymine. Label the DNA and RNA. Then, label the missing nucleotides marked on the diagram. 7. Transcription Labeling #2 •Label the following items: -RNA polymerase -DNA coding strand -DNA non-coding strand -mRNA #7 8. RNA Labeling a-Label these 3 types of RNA molecules b-Circle the molecule in charge of bringing amino acids to the ribosome. c-Put an X on the molecule that represents a temporary copy of DNA. 9. Big Picture review a-Groups of _____ nitrogen bases are translated into amino acids. These trios bases are called _____________________, and they are located on ___RNA molecules. Amino acids are the building blocks of ________________________. 2 Translation 10. Translation Labeling #1 •Review: During translation, transfer RNA(tRNA) anticodons match to messenger RNA(mRNA) codons. Each tRNA molecule can carry one particular amino acid. The amino acids are joined to form a polypeptide (protein). •The Diagram: Below is a strand of mRNA that needs to be translated into protein, and the 4 tRNA’s that will match up with it. a-Below the four tRNA anticodons, write the numbers 1-4 to show the order in which they would appear to match the codons in the mRNA strand. a-Order of tRNA’s b-Below the mRNA, identify which amino acid would be brought to make the protein. (Be Careful! Before you do this, make sure to read the TITLE of the table in the notes.) b-Amino acids: ________ ________ ________ _______ 11. Translation Labeling #2 •First, locate these 2 items and label them: A-mRNA segment leaving the nucleus B-mRNA segment at the ribosome •Then label the following items: C-tRNA D-ribosome E-a codon F-an anticodon G-use the table to identify the three specific amino acids on the 3 tRNA’s) H-nucleus 12. Bio-Math Challenge: Alien codons a-With codons being 3 bases long, there are _________ different combinations. Since there are only _______ amino acids, there is quite enough for each amino acid to have its own “word” to stand for it. b-If you discovered a planet whose residents had 2-base codons, what is the maximum number of amino acids they could use? (Forget about stop codons for now.) ______ c-Let’s say these aliens had only 2-base codons, but they also had a 5th base (let’s call it Biligine). THEN how many amino acids could they accommodate? (Forget about stop codons again.) __________ 3 4 13. Translation practice a-Identify the process responsible by writing its name in column B. b-Complete column C by writing the mRNA nitrogen bases that would match up with the DNA bases in column A. Because you’re making RNA, you should use the letters A, U, C & G. c-Identify the process responsible by writing its name in column D. d-Complete column E by writing the correct bases for the tRNA anticodon that bonds to each codon from column C. e-Complete column F by writing the name of the correct amino acid that is coded by each base sequence. Use the table in your notes to translate the mRNA (not tRNA!!) base sequences to amino acids for column F.
