DNA and RNA
Name one difference between DNA and RNA? there are 3
1. double stranded vs single stranded
2. T vs U
3. deoxyribose sugar vs ribose sugar
Where does transcrition occur?
In the nucleus
What is translation?
What is reading of the mRNA and codes for the creation of different proteins.
This is the nucleotide that is in place of T in DNA.
Uracil
What brings our genes out of the nucleus and has codons that code for amino acids?
What is mRNA
What comes from transcription? (Think what structure)
Where does translation occur?
Ribosomes
What 2 cell organelles are utilized the most during these processes?
What is nucleus and ribosomes
What is the RNA that contains anticodons?
What is tRNA
What is transcription?
What is a segment of DNA is copied into mRNA.
How many nucleotides are read at a time to code for an amino acid?
What is 3
Which enzyme "unzips" DNA?
What is helicase
What is the job of tRNA?
Carry amino acids to the codons being read by the ribosome.
What is Chargaff's rules?
base pairing rules: A always pairs with T and G always pairs with C.
The codon wheel on works for which RNA?
What is mRNA.
Which enzyme "zips up" DNA?
What is polymerase
These are the anticodons for a mRNA strand AUGGCUUACCCG: What is the mRNA strand?
What is UACCGAAUGGGC?
What is the RNA bases for this strand TACGTCCAATGG?
What is AUGCAGGUUACC?
What happens next after the codon is read by ribosome?
What is tRNA brings the amino acid associated with the anticodon and it attaches to the polypeptide protein chain.
What chain of amino acids does this strand code for: AUGUCCGGCAACUGA?
MET-SER-GLY-ASP-STOP
Start with this DNA complement strand then translate and transcribe it.
TACGGCTTAGGGCTATCT
1. AUGCCGAAUCCCGAUAGA
2. MET-PRO-ASP-PRO-ASP ACID-ARG
