11.2 From DNA to Protein

Genes & Proteins • Nucleotide sequence contains information to make proteins • Proteins are polymers of amino acids (made of chains of amino acids) • Proteins are made on ribosomes

Shape of Protein determines its function • Proteins fold into complex, 3-D structures to function inside the cell • Examples: – enzymes that break down food – Hemoglobin carries O2 in RBC

Transcription • Transcription is the process of making RNA from DNA

RNA vs. DNA • Similarities: – Both are nucleic acids – Both are polymers made of nucleotides • Differences:

Transcription • http://www.stolaf.edu/people/giannini /flashanimat/molgenetics/transcriptio n.swf

From DNA to RNA • RNA polymerase binds to the beginning (promoter) of a specific gene. • Free RNA nucleotides form base pairs with their complementary nucleotides on the DNA strand (the template strand) • RNA transcription ends when a terminator sequence on the DNA template is reached. • RNA strand breaks away, & the DNA strand rejoins

3 Types of RNA

• Messenger RNA (mRNA)composed of a single nucleotide strand. mRNA carries genetic information from the nuclear DNA to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. • Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a single chain of about 80 nucleotides, folded into a hairpin shape. Different tRNAs bind to specific amino acids . • Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) nucleotides are joined by proteins into a globular form to make up ribosomes.

RNA processing • Genes contain coding (exons, expressed) and non-coding (introns, intervening) regions

Translation

Translation from mRNA to Protein

The mRNA Genetic code • There are 20 AA. • There are 64 different mRNA codons (group of 3 nitrogenous bases on mRNA) • Start codon is AUG, codes for the AA methionine • Stop codons are UAG, UGA, UAA • All organisms use the same genetic code

Lets practice making proteins DNA template ATT mRNA transcript (codons) tRNA anticodons Protein A.A. seq.
