  1. RNA Use this power point to help you complete notes for interactive notebook

  2. RNA • Name:Ribonucleic acid • Nitrogen bases:A-U-C-G (adenine, uracil, cytosine, guanine) • Structure:single - strand of nucleotides • Sugar:ribose (5-carbon sugar) • Function:to carry the DNA code to the ribosomes • Number of types:3 • Names of the types:mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA • Codon:3 nitrogen bases that code for an amino acid • Transcription;transferring DNA code onto mRNA • Why is RNA important? Without RNA there would not be instructions for making proteins at the ribosomes in cells.

  3. DNA RNA List the differences 1. Single RNA/double DNA 2. Uracil (RNA) Thymine (DNA) 3. Ribose = RNA sugar Deoxyribose = DNA sugar 4. GAUC = RNA bases GATC = DNA bases

  4. DNA RNA List the similarities 1. PHOSPHATE/SUGAR SIDES 2. MADE OF NUCLEOTIDES 3. 5-CARBON SUGAR 4. NUCLEIC ACIDS

  5. mRNA • Nucleic Acid • Single-stranded • Made in nucleus as a result of transcription • Travels to ribosome with transcribed DNA code • Called messenger RNA

  6. rRNA • Made of a large and a small unit that come • together for protein synthesis • Found in the cytoplasm • Translates the mRNA code to amino acid code in • making proteins • Called ribosomal RNA

  7. tRNA • Small coiled RNA with three unmatched bases • Found in the cytoplasm • Carries amino acid to ribosome • Called transfer RNA AMINO ACID tRNA ANTICODON

  8. Use proper base pairing to complete DNA and mRNA

  9. Summary for making proteins TRANSCRIPTION → mRNA →TRANSLATION → PROTEIN

  10. CHECK OUT THESE LINKS TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE PROCESSES INVOLVED IN MAKING PROTEINS. MAKING PROTEINS ANIMATION SIMPLE ANIMATED TRANSCRIPTION EASY TO FOLLOW TRANSLATION ANIMATED TRANSLATION ANOTHER ANIMATED TRANSLATION
