Translation • Key Point #1: • In translation, ribosomes read the information in RNA. • Ribosomes read RNA three bases at a time. • Each set of three is called a codon.
The mRNA code • Key Point #2: • Each codon is the instructions to make one amino acid. • Amino acids are the building blocks for proteins. • One protein = a bunch of amino acids.
Table of CODONS From your three letter codon, you can use this table to figure out what amino acid it is. Third Letter
Let’s Practice • Codon: UAC • What is the amino acid? Tyrosine!
STOP! • After a protein is done being made, it needs to have a signal to stop adding on more amino acids. • All mRNA chains will end in a STOP codon. This is the end of the protein.
Modeling Putting it all together • Change this DNA sequence into mRNA CCATCGGGAACT GGUAGCCCUUGA • Now split the mRNA into codons GGU-AGC-CCU-UGA • Finally, make an amino acid sequence Glycine-Serine-Proline-Stop
Look in your NOTES! What is translation?
NOTES NOTES NOTES What is a codon?
What do all mRNA sequences end in?
Make this DNA into a protein • Change this DNA sequence into mRNA CACTGAGTGATC GUGACUCACUAG • Now split the mRNA into codons GUG-ACU-CAC-UAG • Finally, make an amino acid sequence Valine-Threonine-Histidine-Stop
Codon Bingo • Look at your codon tables and put the 20 amino acids in the spots. You will repeat . • I am going to call out codons. • If you get a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal row, you win!
OH MAN THERE WAS A ROBBERY • But luckily they have some DNA evidence. • Weirdly, they asked me to get my Biology class to solve it! • Make sure you make a sketch of the suspect! That jerk!
