The protein on the surface of a red blood cell that determines a persons' blood type.
What is an antigen?
A single-stranded molecule that carries information to the ribosome to code for a protein.
What is mRNA?
The end result of transcription.
What is mRNA?
The end result of Translation.
What is a protein?
The type of protein that provides support for cells, tissues, organs, etc.
The protein that is part of the body's immune system and detects foreign signaling proteins (antigens) to protect the body.
What is an antibody?
Molecule that carries amino acids to the site of protein synthesis?
What is tRNA?
Where the process of transcription (turning DNA --> RNA) takes place.
What is the nucleus?
The organelle in the cytoplasm that is the site of translation (tuning mRNA --> Proteins).
What is the Ribosome?
The type of protein that stores nutrients for later use.
What is a Storage Protein?
When blood typing, Anti-A Serum causes this blood to clump but Anti-B Serum does not. (Draw a picture as part of your answer).
What is Type A Blood?
Double-stranded molecule that has the instructions (genes) for every protein our body needs to make us who we are and function the way we do.
What is DNA?
The enzyme responsible for unzipping DNA and creating a complementary mRNA strand.
What is RNA Polymerase?
A section of 3 nucleotides on the mRNA that codes for a specific Amino Acid.
What is a Codon?
The type of protein that detects light, sound, touch, smell, taste, pain, heat, etc.
What is a Sensory Protein?
When blood typing, Anti-A Serum causes this blood to clump and Anti-B Serum causes this blood to clump (Draw a picture as part of your answer).
What is Type AB Blood?
Found in the nucleus during the process of protein synthesis.
What is Uracil (U)?
The type of codon that signals to the ribosome that the protein chain is done being made.
What is a Stop Codon?
The type of protein that can break down and building molecules.
What is an Enzyme?
When blood typing, Anti-A Serum and Anti-B Serum do not cause clumping. (Draw a picture as part of your answer).
What is Type O Blood?
This sugar is only present on RNA.
What is Ribose Sugar?
The mRNA strand complementary to:
TAC CGC TAA GGA AGT ATT
What is:
AUG GCG AUU UCA UAA?
The amino acid sequence we get from this mRNA strand:
AUG - GGU - CAA - AAG - CAU - UGA
Met - Gly - Glu - Lys - His - STOP
The type of protein that moves molecules and nutrients around the body (in and out of cells).
What is a Transport Protein?
