Use the key below to decode the message then complete the activity described in the message! 20 -21 -18 -14 … 20 -15 … 14 -5 -23 … 16 -1 -7 -5… 9 -14 … 25 -15 -21 -18 … 14 -15 -20 -5 -2 -15 -15 -11. 23 -18 -9 -20 -5 … 20 -8 -9 -19 … 4 -14 -1 … 19 -20 -18 -1 -14 -4 … 3 -20 -7 … 1 -3 -7

Answer • • 20 -21 -18 -14 = Turn 20 -15 = to 1=a 14 -5 -23 =new 16 -1 -7 -5 = page 9 -14 = in 25 -15 -21 -18 = your 14 -15 -20 -5 -2 -15 -1511 = notebook. • 23 -18 -9 -20 -5 = Write • 20 -8 -9 -19 = this • 4 -14 -1= DNA • 19 -20 -18 -1 -14 -4 = strand • 3 -20 -7 = CTG • 1 -3 -7 = ACG

Replicate the DNA strand in your notebook What does replicate mean? COPY! DNA to DNA compliment CTG ACG GAC TGC

Transcribe the DNA strand in your notebook What does transcribe mean? Rewrite in m. RNA! DNA to m. RNA *new rule: no thymine! Replace with_________ URACIL CTG ACG GUC UGC

Now we will learn to do the final step of Protein Synthesis: Translation Reading the m. RNA, matching it with its t. RNA anticodon, and crating a protein from the m. RNA

How to translate the m. RNA Use the m. RNA codons to find the amino acid in the chart THREONINE Example: ACG = __________ GUC UGC

Translate the DNA strand in your notebook What does translate mean? Read message and create new message! m. RNA to Protein! (the whole goal of PROTEIN synthesis!) GUC UGC GUC- valine UGC -cysteine
