2
Standard: explain the purpose and process of transcription (B.6C) Essential Question: What is transcription and what is its purpose?
3
Transcription Preview
4
Let’s get some things straight… Replication – making an exact copy – Replication is like making a photocopy Transcription – to transfer information from one form to another – like taking notes (same information, different form)
5
Why bother making copies?
6
Well… 1.Copies are good to have as a backup—it’d be bad if something happened to DNA 2.You can just put down the part of the information you need—shorter/simpler Think of it like this: DNA = master copy RNA = blueprints…you don’t need the blueprints for the whole house to build the foundation
7
Central Dogma We’re only talking about the first part today DNAmRNAProtein Translation Transcription Nucleus Ribosome Copy this diagram into your notes!!
8
Big Ideas first step in making a protein (polypeptide) occurs in the nucleus (why?__________) DNA is used to make RNA – RNA is then sent out into the cell to make proteins – It’s usually just a section of the DNA strand (gene) that codes for one specific protein
9
3 DNA & RNA Differences: 1) the sugar in RNA is ribose instead of deoxyribose 2) RNA is single-stranded 3) RNA has uracil (U) instead of thymine

11
Messenger RNA (mRNA): Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries copies of instructions from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome to make proteins.
