DNA • DNA never leaves the nucleus • DNA is the master copy of the directions a cell needs to live, it needs to be protected DNA in the nucleus is safe DNA in the cytoplasm can be destroyed

Three Types of RNA • Messenger RNA (m. RNA) copies DNA’s code & carries the genetic information to the ribosomes. • Ribosomal RNA (r. RNA) along with protein, makes up the ribosomes. • Transfer RNA (t. RNA) transfers amino acids to the ribosomes where proteins are made. • RNA is a copy of DNA that goes out into the cytoplasm to tell the cell what to do.

Transcription • • Unzip DNA Match up bases to one side of DNA m.

Transcription • • Unzip DNA Match up bases to one side of DNA m. RNA detaches from the DNA m. RNA moves out of the nucleus and into the cytoplasm to make proteins.

Practice Transcription DNA: GAG AAC TAG TAC ACT m. RNA: • m. RNA Carries

Practice Transcription DNA: GAG AAC TAG TAC ACT m. RNA: • m. RNA Carries the message for a specific protein • Sequence of 3 bases called codon • AUG – methionine or start codon • UAA, UAG, or UGA – stop codons

Translation 1. m. RNA moves out of nucleus and into cytoplasm 2. m. RNA

Translation 1. m. RNA moves out of nucleus and into cytoplasm 2. m. RNA attaches to a ribosome 3. Transfer RNA (t. RNA) decodes the m. RNA and brings correct amino acids (protein synthesis) 4. Anticodon (3 bases on t. RNA): Matches up to codons on m. RNA 5. Protein (chain of amino acids) detaches from ribosome and goes off to work in the cell
