Back to Protein Synthesis… • Central Dogma: • Since the 1960’s, most scientists agree that protein synthesis occurs in this order: • DNA → RNA → PROTEIN
RNA (RIBONUCLEIC ACID) The nucleic acid involved in making proteins.
RNA STRUCTURE Composed of nucleotides, but differs from DNA in four ways. • Different number of strands – DNA has ___, RNA usually has ____ • Different sugars in the sugar-phosphate backbone – DNA has __________________, RNA has _____________ 3) One nitrogen base is different – DNA has A,T,C,G; RNA substitutes ____ for ____ 4) DNA always stays in the ________, RNA leaves the _________and goes to the _______________
RNA FUNCTION 3 forms of RNA involved in protein synthesis 1. mRNA (messenger): copies instructions in DNA and carries these to the ribosome. 2. tRNA (transfer): carries amino acids to the ribosome. 3. rRNA (ribosomal): combines with other proteins to help make up the ribosome.
PROTEIN SYNTHESIS Cells build proteins following instructions coded in genes (DNA). • Consists of two steps, • transcription -write DNA code in the form of mRNA. • translation -convert language of mRNA (N-base codons) to language of protein (amino acids chain).
Central dogma = protein synthesis • Steps? • 1) ________ to _________; takes place in the ______________ • Complete the complementary strand below if we are transcribing DNA into mRNA: • T T A C G G T A C T A G C T A G A A • ________________________________________ • 2) _______ to ___________; takes place at the ___________________

In translation… The ribosome reads three nitrogen bases at a time This is called a “codon” and the combination of three nitrogen bases codes for a particular amino acid

Proteins have a 3 dimensional shape that helps determine their function…
PROTEIN SYNTHESIS What’s the point of all this? “Gene Expression” The genetic code in DNA is converted to proteins, and these give us our traits (hair color, eye color, skin color, height, and so on) .
Codons are read by the ribosome three at a time… • Normal: • THE BIG FAT CAT ATE THE WET RAT • Mistakes in replication are rare, but if a permanent change occurs in the DNA of a cell, it is called a MUTATION What is a reading frame?
FRAMESHIFT MUTATIONS INSERTIONS An extra is added to the DNA sequence Example: THE BIG ZFA TCA TAT ETH EWE TRA • DELETIONS • A nucleotide is lost from the DNA sequence • Example: • THB IGF ATC ATA TET HEW ETR AT
