Presentation Transcript

  1. Protein Synthesis DNA (genes) to proteins

  2. Turned into Takes code on basepairs Converts it to DNA RNA PROTEIN Protein Synthesis Building protein from DNA in cells

  3. Review Proteins - long chains of amino acids Order of amino acids important because • it determine the shape of protein • which in turn determine the function or job of protein

  4. Protein

  5. Differences w/ DNA • Single strand of nucleotides • nucleotide URACIL replaces thymine

  6. Complimentary bases in RNA 1. cytosine & guanine 2. adenine & uracil

  7. 3 types of RNA in protein syn. • Club shaped - transport amino acids 1. mRNA - messenger RNA • Straight single strand of RNA 2 . tRNA - transfer RNA 3. rRNA - ribosomal RNA - help link amino acids together

  8. 3 steps protein synthesis 1. Transcription - DNA  mRNA 2. Translation - tRNA reads mRNA 3. Linking - amino acids linked together

  9. Step 1 - Transcription code form DNA used to form mRNA • in nucleus • DNA unzipped - base pairs read • Complimentary RNA nucleotides - form mRNA

  10. Step 1 - Transcription

  11. codon Original DNA C A T T C A G A C mRNA formed G U A A G U C U G • Code is stored - groups of 3 nucleotide basepairs - called aCODON

  12. Step 2 - Translation mRNA enters cytoplasm & ribosomes read codons on mRNA

  13. Step 2 - Translation

  14. tRNA - carry amino acids • has special region - ANTI-CODON -- 3 nucleotides • nucleotides complimentary to codons on mRNA • determine amino acid tRNA carries

  15. codon 1 codon 2 codon 3 C A U U C A G A C anti-codon 1 anti-codon 2 anti- codon 3 mRNA G U A A G U C U G tRNA

  16. Step 3 - Linking Amino acids brought to ribosome by tRNA - linked together

  17. tRNA w/ complimentary anti-codon - fits into ribosome - drops off amino acid attached & links to protein chain

  18. codon 1 codon 2 codon 3 C A U U C A G A C anti-codon 1 anti-codon 2 anti- codon 3 mRNA G U A A G U C U G tRNA Amino acid Valine (Val) Serine (Ser) Leucine (Leu)

  19. STOP codon - on mRNA -stops linking amno acids • START codon - start linking amino acids
