Biosynthesis Biosynthesis is a phenomenon wherein chemical compounds are produced from simpler compounds. Biosynthesis takes place within living organisms and is generally catalyzed by enzymes. A type of protein Where do the proteins come from?
Protein biosynthesis (synthesis) is the process in which cells build proteins Ribosomes of the cell Proteins are formed in the ______________________ Proteins are composed building blocks called______________________ Amino acids

protein synthesis Is carried out in the cell’s nucleus, cytoplasm, and ribosomes Directed by the DNA of the organism Aided by molecules of RNA
RNA Ribonucleic acid is a nucleic acid made from a long chains of nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of a nitrogenous base, a ribose sugar, and a phosphate.
RNA is usually single stranded RNA nucleotides contain ribose RNA uses the nucleotide Uracil substituted for Thymine
Three Types of RNA mRNA tRNA rRNA Messenger RNA Transfer RNA Ribosomal RNA transfers a specific amino acid to a growing polypeptide chain at the ribosomal site the protein manufacturing machineryof all living cells is the RNA that carries information from DNA to the ribosome

EXAMPLE DNA READS: GTC AAG CAA GAT TAC Transcription occurs mRNA READS: CAG UUC GUU CUA AUG Triplets of mRNA bases are called codons
Transcription the mRNA is created under the direction of DNA Only one of the two DNA strands is transcribed This strand is called the template strand Transcription occurs in the cellnucleus where DNA is housed
Translation is the process that converts an mRNA sequence into a string of amino acids that form a protein. protein synthesis when the mRNA strand moves out of the nucleus and into the cytoplasm.
The tRNA will deliver the appropriate amino acid in the cytoplasm that is coded for by the mRNA messenger RNA (mRNA) is decoded to produce a specific protein using specific amino acids tRNA Polypeptide=protein
