Protein Synthesis • What: The production of proteins (long chains of amino acids)

Protein Synthesis • What: The production of proteins (long chains of amino acids)

Protein Synthesis • Where: Starts in the nucleus, continues on ribosomes in the cytoplasm

RNA The nucleic acid that plays key roles in the manufacturing of proteins Named for the 6 -carbon sugar ribose Uracil replaces Thymine

RNA vs. DNA • • RNA Single Strand Ribose Sugar A, C, G, U

RNA vs. DNA • • RNA Single Strand Ribose Sugar A, C, G, U Leaves nucleus DNA • • Double Strand Deoxyribose A, C, G, T Stays in nucleus

Three kinds of RNA 3. Transfer RNA (t. RNA) a) Carries amino acids on

Three kinds of RNA 3. Transfer RNA (t. RNA) a) Carries amino acids on one end and transfers 3 bases to m. RNA on the other end

CODON • 3 nucleotide sequence on m. RNA • ANTICODON: • 3 nucleotide sequence

CODON • 3 nucleotide sequence on m. RNA • ANTICODON: • 3 nucleotide sequence on t. RNA complimentary to the m. RNA

2 STAGES OF PROTEIN SYNTHESIS • 1. Transcription – The process of transferring the genetic information from DNA to m. RNA – Takes place in the nucleus

2 STAGES OF PROTEIN SYNTHESIS • 2. Translation – The process that decodes m.

2 STAGES OF PROTEIN SYNTHESIS • 2. Translation – The process that decodes m. RNA into a protein – Occurs in the cytoplasm on a ribosome

TRANSCRIPTION • 1. RNA polymerase – Binds to a start signal – Unwinds the DNA – Adds Nucleotides • Uracil replaces thymine • 2. m. RNA leaves the nucleus
