DNA ( Deoxyribonucleic Acid)
![Page 3: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Similar to DNA, except…Sugar is riboseSingle strandedUracil (U) instead of Thymine (T)
RNA (Ribonucleic Acid)
![Page 4: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Messenger RNA (mRNA) – carries copies of instructions for making proteins
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) – makes up ribosomes
Transfer RNA (tRNA) – transfers specific amino acids to the ribosome according to instructions.
Three types of RNA
![Page 5: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
•Carries DNA message from nucleus to cytoplasm
•mRNA reads the message in “triplets” called codons
•64 different codons code for 20 different amino acids
•1 start codon- AUG •3 stop codons- UUA, UAG, UGA
Messenger RNA
![Page 6: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
*Responsible for Transcription- copying the DNA code in the nucleus
•Code- universal to all life= evidence for common ancestry
•Redundancy or “wobble”- codons for same amino acid can differ in 3rd base •( a relaxing of the base-pairing rule in the tRNA)
mRNA
![Page 7: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
*Promotor- initiates transcription- DNA polymerase attaches
•Terminator- sequence that signals the end of transcriptor
•The direction of transcription is known as “downstream” and “upstream”
•Promotor sequence- upstream from terminator
•The stretch of DNA that is transcribed is the transcription unit
Transcription
![Page 8: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
1. Elongation2. Termination3. Initiation
3 stages of Transcription
![Page 9: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
•Start Codon- AUG- methionine•Once polymerase is attached to the promoter DNA, the 2 strands unwind, and the enzyme starts transcribing the template strand
•promotor- start point- •extends several dozen nucleotide pairs upstream from start point
Initiation
![Page 10: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
•RNA polymerase continues to move along DNA and untwist the helix, exposing 10-20 DNA base pairs.
•Adds nucleotides to 3’ end of the growing RNA molecule
•DNA re-forms and new RNA molecule pulls away from its DNA template
•About 60 nucleotides/second
Elongation
![Page 11: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Modification of RNA after Transcription
1.
1. Modified guanine attaches to 5’ end of pre- mRNA nucleotide and a string of adenine nucleotides (poly(A)tail) added to 3’ end.2. 5’(5 prime)= phosphate end attached to 5 carbon sugar 3’(3 prime)= OH ( hydroxyl end)( 3 carbon)3. The 5’ cap serves as a recognition site for ribosome.4. Both 5’ cap and poly(A)tail protect end of mRNA from hydrolytic enzymes5. Poly(A)tail also facilitates transport of mRNA from nucleus to cytoplasm6. Cap & tail are attached to non-translated leader & trailer segments
![Page 14: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
In other words, during transcription in Pre mRNA,* the 5’ end gets capped off w/ a form of guanine nucleotide. The 5’ cap:a. protects mRNA from degradingb. after mRNA reaches cytoplasm it acts as a “Attach Here” sign.
The 3’ end is modified before leaving nucleus.A. an enzyme makes a Poly(A)tail-50 to 250 adenine nucleotides. This prevents degradation and helps ribosomes attach to it. B. It also helps mRNA export from the nucleus.

The sequence of DNA nucleotides that codes for a eukaryotic polypeptide is NOT
continuous!There are non-coding segments that lie
between coding segments called intervening segments.
( Introns)
![Page 16: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
*Introns- long segments of non-coding base sequences
•Exons- coding regions- expressed in protein synthesis.
•The leader & trailer RNA are not translated
•Introns are removed & are exons joined before the mRNA leaves nucleus—this is called RNA splicing. Signals for splicing are called sn(RNP’s) or “snurps”
Split Genes & RNA Splicing
![Page 17: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
*removal of portion of RNA
*about 8000 nucleotides & only 1200 needed for avg. sized protein of 400 amino acids
*there are long stretches of non-coding nucleotide regions that are not translated & they are mixed between coding segments.•Introns- non-coding segments•Exons- coding segments•Introns are cut out and exons move to cytoplasm for translation
RNA Splicing
![Page 18: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
•snRNP’s- (“snurps”)- small nuclear ribonuclear proteins that are signals for RNA splicing.•Spliceosome- responsible for actual splicingof introns & rejoining of exons.•Ribozymes- RNA molecule that functions as an enzyme. Functions as a catalyst.

•Carried out by tRNA
•They are specific for the amino acids they carry•Have a specific base triplet (anti-codon)-that is complimentary to the mRNA codon•61 codons for amino acids can be read from mRNA; but only 45 tRNA molecules.•That is where Wobble come into effect•Wobble enables 3rd nucleotide of some tRNA anti-codons to pair w/more than 1 kind of base in a codon.
Translation
![Page 20: 1. 5 carbon sugar- deoxyribose 2. Phosphate group 3. Nitrogen bases- A T G C (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56649e795503460f94b788ac/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
•1 tRNA can recognize more than 1 mRNA codon
•A modified base inosine (I) is the 3rd position and can pair w/ U,C,A
•Example: tRNA CCI anti-codon can bind to mRNA GGU, GGC, or GGA
•Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase- joins amino acid to tRNA
•The phosphate ion is what gives DNA and RNA the acidic property.
