1 DNA: Master Programmer
Stores genetic information Specifies primary structure of proteins Primary structure tertiary structure Tertiary structure protein function Control is indirect DNA uses RNA

2 Why RNA? Why does DNA need to transfer genetic information to RNA?
DNA is found inside the nucleus. Ribosomes are outside the nucleus. DNA does not leave nucleus too large for nuclear pores protection of the original instructions. A way is needed to get genetic information from the DNA to the ribosomes to make proteins with amino acids. Special molecule, messenger RNA (mRNA), performs this task with codons.

3 RNA: The Other Code RNA and Protein Synthesis A.The Structure of RNA
B. DNA and RNA Similarities/Differences C. Types of RNA D. Transcription/mRNA Synthesis E. Protein Synthesis/Translation

4 RNA Structure

5 RNA/DNA Similarities long chain made of nucleotides
each nucleotide consists of: a sugar a phosphate a nitrogen base sugar and phosphate backbone

6 RNA/DNA Differences Different type of sugar (ribose)
Single strand rather than a double strand RNA molecule is a disposable copy of DNA Nitrogen base THYMINE found in DNA replaced by a similar base URACIL (U) in RNA ex. ( A - U ) and ( C - G ) Three different types: Messenger RNA (mRNA) Transfer RNA (tRNA) Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)

7 Types of RNA Messenger RNA (mRNA)
Is a complimentary copy of a DNA segment Single strand Contains codons which code for specific amino acids. Codons are triplet bases Manufactured in the nucleus

8 Other Types of RNA Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) makes up majority of ribosome
made in the nucleolus Transfer RNA (tRNA) Carries amino acids to ribosome Single strand looped back on itself Anticodon-three nucleotides on tRNA are complementary to the three (codon) on the mRNA. Matching of anticodon (tRNA) to codon (mRNA) allows the correct amino acid to be put in place.

11 RNA Synthesis: Transcription
Transcription- process by which one strand of DNA is copied to make a complementary strand of mRNA in the nucleus. A strand (Sense strand) of DNA serves as a pattern for mRNA. Enzymes “unzip” the two strands by breaking the hydrogen bonds. RNA polymerase, an enzyme, inserts appropriate nitrogen bases. Thymine (DNA) pairs with Adenine (RNA) Adenine (DNA) pairs with Uracil (RNA)

12 Transcription RNA polymerase DNA RNA Adenine (DNA and RNA)
Cystosine (DNA and RNA) Guanine(DNA and RNA) Thymine (DNA only) Uracil (RNA only) RNA polymerase DNA RNA

16 DNA transcription by mRNA
DNA transcription by mRNA. Coloured transmission electron micrograph of DNA & mRNA (messenger RNA) molecules forming a feather-like, transcriptionally-active structure. This DNA is from the nucleus of an amphibian egg. The backbone of the feather, running down the image, is a long strand of DNA coated with protein. Numerous mRNA molecules extend in clusters from the DNA strand. Transcription of genetic information begins at one end of the gene, with the mRNA molecules growing longer as they approach completion. Transcription is the first step in protein synthesis. Magnification: x6700 at 6x4.5cm size.

20 Protein Synthesis A. Nucleotides in DNA have all the information to make proteins. B. DNA code copied into mRNA C. Proteins are made of amino acids which are coded from mRNA. D. mRNA code is read in a triplet form called a CODON which specifies certain amino acids using a decoder (p.237 BSCS Blue)

BACK

22 Protein Synthesis: Translation
Translation -the decoding of the mRNA code into proteins Only 20 amino acids make all life as we know it. How is this possible with only four nitrogen bases? Code is in triplets --64 combinations Codons on mRNA Anticodons on tRNA *AUG - codes for the amino acid methionine Initiator codon Always starts mRNA Is often removed after protein is synthesized *Some are “stop” codons Terminator codon

23 Translation Messenger RNA Messenger RNA is transcribed in the nucleus.
mRNA Lysine Phenylalanine tRNA Transfer RNA The mRNA then enters the cytoplasm and attaches to a ribosome. Translation begins at AUG, the start codon. Each transfer RNA has an anticodon whose bases are complementary to a codon on the mRNA strand. The ribosome positions the start codon to attract its anticodon, which is part of the tRNA that binds methionine. The ribosome also binds the next codon and its anticodon. Methionine Ribosome mRNA Start codon

24 Translation B. Transfer RNA
The mRNA then enters the cytoplasm and attaches to a ribosome. Translation begins at AUG, the start codon. Each transfer RNA has an anticodon whose bases are complementary to a codon on the mRNA strand. The ribosome positions the start codon to attract its anticodon, which is part of the tRNA that binds methionine. The ribosome also binds the next codon and its anticodon. B. Nucleus Messenger RNA Messenger RNA is transcribed in the nucleus. mRNA Lysine Phenylalanine tRNA Methionine Ribosome mRNA Start codon

25 Translation (continued)
The Polypeptide “Assembly Line” The ribosome joins the two amino acids—methionine and phenylalanine—and breaks the bond between methionine and its tRNA. The tRNA floats away, allowing the ribosome to bind to another tRNA. The ribosome moves along the mRNA, binding new tRNA molecules and amino acids. C. Growing polypeptide chain Ribosome tRNA Lysine tRNA mRNA Completing the Polypeptide The process continues until the ribosome reaches one of the three stop codons. The result is a growing polypeptide chain. mRNA Translation direction Ribosome

Initiation in wrong place Frameshift in reading frame (codon) Splicing mistakes introns/exons Changes in DNA Frameshift Stop codon Not enough of an amino acid
