DNA Replication
![Page 6: Chapter 21](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070502/56814cf5550346895db9fa0a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Process:–DNA strands uncoil and “unzip”–DNA nucleotides are positioned and linked by
DNA polymerase–Nucleotide subunits: A = adenine, G = guanine, T
= thymine, C = cytosine–A only binds to T; and G only binds to C
DNA Replication

Which of the following statements about DNA and RNA is/are incorrect?
A. DNA is double stranded, RNA singleB. DNA contains deoxyribose, RNA riboseC. DNA contains four bases A, T, G, C, RNA
only contain three, A, G, CD. DNA forms a double helix, RNA doesn’t

RNA Transcription
![Page 13: Chapter 21](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070502/56814cf5550346895db9fa0a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
•Process:– DNA for a gene unwinds
– RNA polymerase copies base sequence in RNA nucleotides
– Ex.: G-C-T-A C-G-A-U (note U instead of T)
RNA Synthesis: Transcription

Transcription of a Gene into mRNA
![Page 15: Chapter 21](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070502/56814cf5550346895db9fa0a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Which RNA nucleotide sequence (mRNA) would the DNA sequence (T-A-C-G-C-T) specify?
A. A-T-G-C-G-AB. A-U-G-C-G-AC. T-A-C-G-C-T
![Page 16: Chapter 21](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070502/56814cf5550346895db9fa0a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Codon: sequence of three mRNA bases that codes for an amino acid
• Duplicate codons: almost all amino acids have more than one codon (degenerate code)
• Genetic Code Grammar– Start: AUG (methionine), begin all genes– Stop: UAA, UAG, UGA, one ends each gene
Genetic Code

Which amino acids (protein) would the DNA sequence (T-A-C-G-C-T) code for?
A. Val-AlaB. Phenal-IsoleuC. Isoleu-GlyD. Gly-AspE. Met-Arg

• Components: messenger RNA, transfer RNA, ribosomes of ribosomal RNA and proteins
• Process:– Initiation: tRNA finds start (AUG) codon, binds
ribosome and mRNA– Elongation: tRNA brings specific amino acids to
developing protein chain– Termination: stop codon terminates developing
chain, protein is released from ribosome
Protein Synthesis: Translation

• Point mutations–Result from nucleotide insertion, substitution, or
deletion–Replacement of nucleotide in DNA may (or may
not) lead to a change of amino acid in protein
