Making Proteins: Translation Lecture #25 Honors Biology Ms. Day
2
REVIEW… Translation mRNA polypeptide (protein)
3
Type of RNAFunction JobPicture mRNA (messenger RNA) Brings message from DNA (DNA instructions) to ribosome to make protein tRNA (transfer RNA) Transfers/moves amino acids to ribosomes rRNA (ribosomal RNA) Makes up ribosomes along with proteins
4
tRNA A cell translates mRNA message into protein with help from transfer RNA (tRNA) Each carries a specific amino acid “t” shape Carries amino acids Matches codons to anticodons
5
Ribosomes Help bind tRNA anticodons with mRNA codons during translation An t icodon ( t RNA) = codon (mRNA)
6
tRNA (with anticodons) mRNA (with codons) AMINO ACIDS
7
REVIEW…The Genetic Code It’s a table used that TRANSLATES RNA nucleotides called CODONS (or mRNA “letters”) into one of the 20 amino acids 3 letter mRNA “word” = 1 amino acid There are 4 different RNA “letters” that can be used A, U, C, and G
8
THE GENETIC CODE
9
Ribosomes There are 2 ribosomal subunits Constructed of proteins and ribosomal RNA or rRNA
10
Building a Polypeptide Translation can be divided into 3 phases Initiation Elongation Termination
11
Initiation of Translation initiation stage brings together mRNA tRNA bearing 1 st amino acid (“start”) called MET 2 subunits of a ribosome come together
12
Large ribosomal subunit Initiator tRNA mRNA mRNA binding site Small ribosomal subunit Translation initiation complex GDP GTP Start codon Met U A C A U G 3 5 5 3 3 5 3 5 Figure 17.17
13
Elongation Amino acids are added one by one to the preceding amino acid Peptide bonds are formed Amino acid
15
Termination of Translation When the ribosome reaches a stop codon on the mRNA There are 3 stop codons UAA, UAG, and UGA Release factor (protein) binds to stop codon (NOT tRNA) polypeptide released
16
Termination of Translation Release factor Free polypeptide Stop codon (UAG, UAA, or UGA) 5 3 3 5 3 5

18
Polypeptide 3D Protein Primary Structure Amino acids is a row (LINEAR) Secondary Structure Amino Acids BEND and FOLD towards each other Tertiary Structure Amino acids BIND to each other 3D shape made Quartnary structure (only some) 2 or more polypeptides BIND to each other
