RNA and PROTEIN SYNTHESIS
© Pearson Education Inc, publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved
DNA holds the information (code) to make all of the proteins in a cell……..
But how is the information stored in DNA?
In the sequence of the nucleotides
Protein Synthesis•How many nucleotides are there?
4•How many amino acids are there?
20
HOW CAN JUST 4 BASES GIVE DIRECTIONS TO MAKE 20 AMINO ACIDS?
UCGCACGGUUCG-CAC-GGU
CODON
Codons represent different amino acids
Serine- Histidine- Glycine
Message is read in groups of 3 bases = _________
But how does the information in the DNA get from the nucleus to the ribosomes where proteins are made?
RNARibonucleic Acid
MASTER PLAN DNA stays safe in nucleus
“Blueprints” of master plan are carried to building site
TRANSCRIPTION (DNA→ RNA)takes place in nucleus
TRANSLATION (RNA→ proteins)takes place on ribosomes in cytoplasm
RNA• Uses information from DNA to make proteins
• Is a polymer similar to DNA
RNA- the Other Nucleic Acid
Also made of ___________
Sugar is _______ insteadof deoxyribose.
RNA is _________ stranded
Contains _________ instead of thymine.
NUCLEOTIDES
RIBOSE
SINGLE
URACIL

RNA Bases
3 Types of RNA
1.Messenger RNA (mRNA)– Carries genetic message
from DNA to ribosomes– Protects DNA– More copies at the
same time– Easier to move
3 Types of RNA
2.Transfer RNA (tRNA)– carries the amino acids
to the ribosome
3.Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)– Makes the ribosomes
along with proteins
3 KINDS OF RNA HELP WITH INFO TRANSFER FOR PROTEIN SYNTHESIS
_________________RNA (rRNA)Combines with proteins to form
ribosomes
_________________RNA (tRNA)Matches m-RNA codon to add correctamino acids during protein synthesis
_________________RNA (mRNA)carries code from DNA to ribosomes

TRANSFER
MESSENGER
Transcription• Process of making RNA from DNA• 3 Steps–DNA unwinds–Nucleotides are added (U instead of T)–mRNA leave the nucleus
What is the RNA Strand?
DNA CTA-GAG-CAA-GTC-ACT
What is the RNA Strand?
DNA CTA-GAG-CAA-GTC-ACTmRNA GAU-CUC-GUU-CAG-UGA
What is the RNA Strand?
DNA TGC-AGT-AGG-TAC-ACT
What is the RNA Strand?
DNA TGC-AGT-AGG-TAC-ACTmRNA ACG-UCA-UCC-AUG-UGA
Codons Combinations
of nucleotides needed to code for all the amino acids
64 codons produce 20 AA
Section 12-3
64 possible codons
Some amino acidshave more than onecodon.
START= _______
3 codons for _____
AUG
STOP
TranslationProcess of making proteins from
RNA• mRNA goes to the ribosome • Ribosome reads mRNA in 3 base
triplets called codons• Codon specifies
what amino acid the tRNA brings
mRNA to Proteins
___________ on tRNAmatches up with________ on mRNA

Codons• AUG = start codon
(methionine)•UAA, UAG, UGA = stop•Has to be read in the correct direction and started in the correct place
