Protein Synthesis Simulation: Genetic Science Learning Center Access the site by visiting sillsscience.com, clicking Biology Projects and Web Activities, and then the link for Genetics Science Learning Center- Protein Synthesis. Are you ready to transcribe a DNA sequence and translate it into a protein? CLICK TO BEGIN! 1. Copy the DNA strand from the screen. Then, fill in the matching RNA strand. Don’t forget to type in the correct RNA bases on the computer screen, too! DNA __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ RNA __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ 2. How do RNA bases pair? How is this different from DNA base pairing? 3. The process of creating an mRNA copy of the DNA gene is called TRANSCRIPTION / TRANSLATION (circle one). 4. After the RNA strand is complete, TRANSCRIPTION / TRANSLATION will occur. 5. Look at the “Universal Genetic Code Chart.” Which codon (set of 3 bases) in RNA codes for the “Met” amino acid? Write the correct bases below. ___ ___ ___ 6. The “Met” amino acid is the “start” codon and allows protein synthesis to begin. Find this codon on the RNA strand. Position the green window over it and click. 7. Build the protein by dragging the correct amino acid sequence from the “Universal Genetic Code Chart” into the box. Record the amino acid sequence below. ______ ______ ______ ______ _______ 8. How many common amino acids are there? 9. How many possible proteins are there for a chain of only 7 amino acids? Explain how this is possible.
