1
Do Now Turn in Alien Invasion (staple sheets together)
Get out Protein Synthesis HW Explain the difference between transcription and translation. (Hint: Think about what is made) Explain difference between codon and anticodon. What is the protein for the DNA strand below? TAATACAGGTTGCGTACT
2
What is the protein for the DNA strand below?
TAATACAGGTTGCGTACT AUUAUGUCCAACGCAUGA DNA TRANSCRIPTION RNA TRANSLATION MET SER ASN ALA STOP
3
Protein Synthesis Review
Video
4
Mutations Mutations
5
What is a mutation? Change in the DNA nitrogen base sequence of a gene
6
How do Mutations Occur? Errors in DNA Replication Replication
7
Damaged DNA caused by agents such as sunlight, smoke, radiation
How do Mutations Occur? Damaged DNA caused by agents such as sunlight, smoke, radiation
8
How do we get mutations????
9
Two ways to classify mutations
Acquired mutation Get a mutation at some point in life. Hint: Think of it like getting sick, but you can’t get rid of it.
11
Two ways to classify mutations
Inherited mutation Get a mutation from your parents
13
Let’s practice protein synthesis with normal DNA
DNA: TAC AAC GTC ACC ATT mRNA: AUG UUG CAG UGG UAA Amino acid: Met Leu Gln Trp STOP
14
Category of Mutation: Point/Substitution
Change in one base of the DNA sequence which can cause a change in amino acid. Original: The fat cat ate the wee rat Point mutation: The fat hat ate the wee rat
15
Type of Mutations: Point/Substitution
Change in one base of the DNA sequence which causes a change in amino acid.
16
Mutated Example of a point/substitution mutation
DNA: TAC AAG GTC ACC ATT mRNA: AUG UUC CAG UGG UAA Amino acid: Met Phe Gln Trp STOP
17
Example of Point Mutation: Sickle Cell Anemia
19
Sickle Cell Anemia: Point Mutation
20
Sickle Cell Anemia Story
(Beginning to 3:00)
21
Category of Mutation: Frameshift
Addition or deletion of a DNA base resulting in a different sequence of DNA. Original: The fat cat ate the wee rat Frameshift mutation: The fat ata tet hew eer at
22
Example of Frameshift Mutation: Tay Sachs
23
Tay Sachs Symptoms: Video
24
Tay Sachs Disease: Frameshift Mutation
25
Type of Mutations: Addition
Addition of one or more bases into a DNA sequence
26
Mutated Example of Insertion
DNA: TAC AAC CGT CAC CAT T mRNA: AUG UUG GCA GUG GUA A Amino acid: Met Leu Gly Val Val
27
Type of Mutations: Deletion
The removal of one or more bases in DNA
28
Mutated Example of Deletion
DNA: TAC AAC GCA CCA TT mRNA: AUG UUG CGU GGU AA Amino acid: Met Leu Arg Gly
29
Blame it on DNA: Review Song
30
How does an organism grow?
Through the process of the cell cycle
31
What are the Limits to Cell Size?
The efficiency of Cell Transport; substances need to reach the central part of the cell; if have a great distance to travel, they won’t get there. Organelle = Oxygen = Cell
32
What are the limits to Cell Size?
2. DNA overload; DNA controls everything that occurs in a cell; cell gets too big, its too hard to control everything I can’t keep up!!!!
33
Cell Division occurs when these two limits have been reached.
34
Problems with Cell Division: Cancer
35
-Disease caused by the uncontrolled division of abnormal cells
What is Cancer? -Diseased Mitosis -Disease caused by the uncontrolled division of abnormal cells
36
What are abnormal cells?
Cells that do not die when they should and form new cells when the body does not need them.
38
WHY? Abnormal cells are caused by: Genetics
Lifestyle-tobacco, diet, etc Environmental: Radiation/Chemicals
39
WHY? These “things” cause a change or mutation in the cells DNA; making it abnormal
40
*How? The cancer cells divide continuously; which creates a tumor (mass of cells)
41
Treatment Surgery is done to remove tumors or as much of the cancerous tissue as possible.
42
Treatment Chemotherapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses of drugs to eliminate cancer cells. It works by targeting rapidly multiplying cancer cells.
43
Treatment Radiation therapy uses certain types of energy to shrink tumors or eliminate cancer cells. It works by damaging a cancer cell's DNA, making it unable to multiply.
