Presentation Transcript


  1. Protein Synthesis Making Proteins

  2. Cell organization • DNA • DNA is in the nucleus • genes = instructions for making proteins • want to keep it there = protected in the nucleus • “locked in the vault” cytoplasm nucleus

  3. nucleus Cell organization • Proteins • chains of amino acids • made by a “protein factory” or ribosome in cytoplasm • Rough ER protein for export, free ribosome Protein for cell • protein factory = ribosome cytoplasm buildproteins ribosome

  4. nucleus Passing on DNA information • Need to get DNA gene information from nucleus to cytoplasm • need a copy of DNA • messenger RNA (mRNA) is made from DNA • mRNA can leave the nucleus cytoplasm buildproteins mRNA ribosome

  5. RNA Translation: Protein Synthesis • http://www.biologyjunction.com/ANIMPROT.htm

  6. From nucleus to cytoplasm transcription Ribosome protein DNA mRNA translation trait nucleus cytoplasm

  7. DNA deoxyribose sugar nitrogen bases G, C, A, T T : A C : G double stranded RNA ribose sugar nitrogen bases G, C, A, U U : A C : G single stranded DNA vs. RNA

  8. Transcription • Making mRNA from DNA • DNA strand is the template (pattern) • pairing bases • U : A • G : C • Enzyme • RNA polymerase

  9. Pairing bases of DNA & RNA • Double stranded DNA unzips T G G T A C A G C T A G T C A T C G T A C C G T

  10. Pairing bases of DNA & RNA • Double stranded DNA unzips T G G T A C A G C T A G T C A T C G T A C C G T

  11. RNA polymerase Pairing bases of DNA & RNA A • Pair RNA bases to DNA bases on one of the DNA strands C U G A G G U C U U G C A C A U A G A C U A G C C A T G G T A C A G C T A G T C A T C G T A C C G T

  14. mRNA A C C A U G U C G A U C A G U A G C A U G G C A aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa How does mRNA code for proteins • mRNA leaves nucleus • mRNA goes to ribosomes in cytoplasm • Proteins built from instructions on mRNA

  15. ribosome TACGCACATTTACGTACGCGG DNA AUGCGUGUAAAUGCAUGCGCC mRNA MetArgValAsnAlaCysAla protein ? aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa How does mRNA code for proteins? How can you code for 20 amino acids withonly 4 DNA bases (A,U,G,C)?

  16. ribosome TACGCACATTTACGTACGCGG DNA codon AUGCGUGUAAAUGCAUGCGCC mRNA AUGCGUGUAAAUGCAUGCGCC mRNA Met Arg ValAsnAlaCys Ala protein ? mRNA codes for proteins in triplets • Codon = block of 3 mRNA bases

  17. The mRNA code • For ALL life! • strongest support for a common origin for all life • Code has duplicates • several codons for each amino acid • mutation insurance! • Start codon • AUG • methionine • Stop codons • UGA, UAA, UAG

  18. GCA CAU UAC tRNA Met Arg Val How are the codons matched to amino acids? TACGCACATTTACGTACGCGG DNA mRNA AUGCGUGUAAAUGCAUGCGCC codon anti-codon aminoacid • Anti-codon = block of 3 tRNA bases

  19. ribosome mRNA A C C A U G U C G A U C A G U A G C A U G G C A U A C G G U tRNA tRNA A G aa U A G tRNA aa aa aa tRNA aa aa mRNA to protein = Translation • The working instructions  mRNA • The reader  ribosome • The transporter  transfer RNA (tRNA) C
