1. Protein Synthesis DNA codes for Proteins
Proteins become enzymes, muscle filament, and walls of blood vessels

2. Proteins Refresher Building blocks: amino acids
Their shape determines their function
Proteins are polymers of amino acids
*Polymers are long chains

3. RNA: Ribonucleic Acid It is a nucleic acid just like DNA
It is single stranded, it’s sugar is Ribose, and has 4 Nitrogenous bases.

5. 4 Nitrogenous Bases
Adenine
Uracil (NOT THYMINE)
Guanine
Cytosine

6. Practice Converting DNA to RNA
DNA: A-T-G-T-T-A-A-A-A-G-C
RNA: U-A-C-A-A-U-U-U-U-C-G
RNA still follows the complementary base pairing, BUT SUBSTITUTES U FOR T

7. 3 Types of RNA mRNA (Messenger RNA) rRNA (Ribosomal RNA)
tRNA (Transfer RNA)

8. 1. mRNA: Messenger RNA
JOB: Carries a copy of DNA from the nucleus to the ribosome

9. 2. rRNA: Ribosomal RNA
JOB: Clamps onto mRNA and uses its information to make amino acids

10. 3. tRNA: TRANSFER RNA
Job: transfers amino acids to ribosome

11. m in mRNA is for Messenger t in tRNA is for Transfer

12. Ribosome

13. Stop

14. Protein Synthesis means to

15. To Make Proteins

16. DNA codes for

17. Proteins

18. What are the building blocks of Proteins?

19. Amino Acids

20. Change the protein you change the_____________

21. Proteins Refresher Building blocks: amino acids
Their shape determines their function
Proteins are polymers of amino acids
*Polymers are long chains

22. What are polymers?

23. What are the things about RNA?

24. It is single stranded, it’s sugar is Ribose, and has 4 Nitrogenous bases.

25. What are RNA’s nitrogenous bases?

26. 4 Nitrogenous Bases
Adenine
Uracil (NOT THYMINE)
Guanine
Cytosine

27. Convert to RNA
DNA: A-T-G-T-T-A-A-A-A-G-C

28. Practice Converting DNA to RNA
RNA: U-A-C-A-A-U-U-U-U-C-G
RNA still follows the complementary base pairing, BUT SUBSTITUTES U FOR T

29. What are the 3 types of RNA?

30. 3 Types of RNA mRNA (Messenger RNA) rRNA (Ribosomal RNA)
tRNA (Transfer RNA)

31. What is mRNA’s Job?

32. 1. mRNA: Messenger RNA
JOB: Carries a copy of DNA from the nucleus to the ribosome

33. What is tRNA’s job?

34. 3. tRNA: TRANSFER RNA
Job: transfers amino acids to ribosome

35. What is rRNA’s job?

36. 2. rRNA: Ribosomal RNA
JOB: Clamps onto mRNA and uses its information to make amino acids

37. m in mRNA is for Messenger t in tRNA is for Transfer

38. Ribosome
