Presentation Transcript

  1. Chapter 3, part C Central Dogma of Molecular Biology From Genes to Protein

  2. Central Dogma of Molecular Biology mRNA Eukaryotic Cell ribosome Transcription: synthesis of mRNA from DNA by RNA polymerase protein - Two steps: 1. creating a 1o mRNA transcript 2. RNA processing (editing) to create 2o mRNA transcript Translation: ribosomes link together amino acids to create a polypeptide from the 2o mRNA code Polypeptide then coils into a specific 3-D shape to form a functional protein transcription mRNA 1o transcript RNA Processing mRNA 2o transcript ribosome translation polypeptide

  5. 3 RNA Players Involved in Translation Central Dogma tRNA = type of RNA that carries the amino acids to the ribosome rRNA = RNA that, combined with protein, makes up the structural component of a ribosome mRNA = DNA transcript

  6. Redundancy in AA • Notice…several codons code for the same AA Redundancy helps to minimize errors in protein synthesis due to mutations
