Name Date Period Biology Warm Up A - Alanine (Ala) C - Cysteine (Cys) D - Aspartic Acid (Asp) E - Glutamic Acid (Glu) F - Phenylalanine (Phe) G - Glycine (Gly) H - Histidine (His) I - Isoleucine (Ile) K - Lysine (Lys) L - Leucine (Leu) M - Methionine (Met) N - Asparagine (Asn) P - Proline (Pro) Q - Glutamine (Gln) R - Arginine (Arg) S - Serine (Ser) T - Threonine (Thr) V - Valine (Val) W - Tryptophan (Trp) Y - Tyrosine (Tyr) An Amino Acid Code. To the left is shown twenty amino acids with their one and three-letter abbreviations. 1. Choose a partner at another table and write a short message to that partner using only the letters included in the single letter abbreviations for amino acids (no B, J, O, U, X, or Z). Write your message here: 2. Translate your note into three-letter abbreviations using the table to the left. Write your sequence of amino acids here: 2. Use the genetic code on p303 to figure out the mRNA sequence that would code for your message. Write the mRNA sequence here: 3. Write the DNA code that would generate the mRNA sequence you wrote in step 2: 4. Now copy that DNA sequence on a small strip of paper and give it to your partner at another table. 5. Copy your partner’s DNA sequence here: 6. Transcribe it to mRNA: 7. Use the genetic code on p303 to translate the mRNA sequence to amino acids and write the three-letter abbreviation for each amino acid here: 8. Decode your partner’s message by writing the single-letter abbreviations for the amino acids here:
