2. What does the DNA of all these organisms have in common? They all share a universal genetic code.

3. 1.You and the person next to you are 99.9% similar in your DNA content 2.There is only a.1% difference which is due to a different sequence of your nucleotides

4. When it comes to DNA, it turns out there's not that much difference between mice and men. Mice and humans each have about 30,000 genes, yet only 300 are unique to either organism. Both even have genes for a tail, even though it's not "switched on" in humans. About 99 percent of genes in humans have counterparts in the mouse

27. What is RNA? DNA must have a “helper” molecule. RNA stands for RiboNucleic Acid RNA is a single stranded nucleic acid made up of monomers called nucleotides sugar phosphate nitrogen base

28. What is the function of RNA? Carries DNA’s message code Helps make protein Types of RNA –Messenger RNA (mRNA) –Transfer RNA (tRNA) –Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)

29. Phosphate Group Nitrogen Base Sugar (ribose) RNA

30. RNA Codes for Amino Acids The nitrogen bases in RNA code for amino acids. A triplet of nitrogen bases codes for one amino acid. The triplet is called a codon.

31. Cracking the Code of Life NOVA chronicles the race to reach one of the greatest milestones in the history of science: decoding the human genome. Aired April 17, 2001 on PBS http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/body/

32. PROTEIN SYNTHESIS Cells build proteins following instructions coded in genes (DNA). Consists of two parts, transcription and translation

33. TRANSCRIPTION DNA is copied into a complementary strand of mRNA. WHY? DNA cannot leave the nucleus. Proteins are made in the cytoplasm. mRNA serves as a “messenger” and carries the protein building instructions to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm.

34. LOCATION OF TRANSCRIPTION Nucleus

35. HOW TRANSCRIPTION OCCURS 1. RNA polymerase untwists and unzips a section of DNA from a chromosome.

36. 2. RNA polymerase pairs free RNA nucleotides to the exposed bases of one of the DNA strands following base pair rules. Uracil replaces thymine Only 1 strand of DNA serves as a template, the other “hangs out”

37. 3. Newly synthesized mRNA separates from template DNA and DNA zips back up.

41. TRANSCRIPTION EXAMPLE Transcribe the following DNA Sequence in mRNA DNA TAC CGG ATC CTA GGA TCA mRNA AUG GCC UAG GAU CCU AGU

43. GENETIC CODE The “language” that translates the sequence of nitrogen bases in DNA (mRNA) into the amino acids of a protein. Codon = three nucleotides on DNA or mRNA One codon specifies one amino acid Some codons are redundant (code for the same amino acid) The genetic code is universal to all organisms

45. LOCATION OF TRANSLATION ribosome (in the cytoplasm)

46. PROCESS OF TRANSLATION 1. mRNA binds to the ribosome. 2. Ribosome searches for start codon (AUG) 3. tRNA brings correct amino acid (methionine) to the ribosome. “Call on me” Each tRNA carries one type of amino acid. The anticodon (three nitrogen bases on tRNA) must complement codon for amino acid to be added to protein chain

47. 4. ribosome reads next codon 5. tRNA’s continue lining up amino acids according to codons 6. peptide bonds link amino acids together 7. ribosome reaches STOP codon Amino acid chain is released

48. Codons One codon codes for one amino acid. A sequence of amino acids is a protein. EX: ACG = amino acid (threonine) CGC = amino acid (arginine) GGA = amino acid (glycine) ACG GGA GGC CCA AAC CCG GCC CGC Threonine Arginine Glycine Proline Asparagine Proline Alanine Amino Acid protein

49. What does the chain of amino acids represent? Threonine Arginine Glycine Proline Asparagine Proline Alanine Polypeptide Chain – A Protein

50. RESULT OF TRANSLATION A Protein

51. PROTEINS Structural and functional components of organisms. Composed of amino acids order of nucleotides in DNA determines order of amino acids in a protein One gene codes for one protein
