Flashback of DNA &Traits • In Interphase DNA _______________ so that a copy can be given to each new ____________ cell. • DNA codes for our individual _____ by coding for particular ____________. • DNA codes for these proteins using the nucleic acid known as __ __ __. • RNA differs from DNA in 3 ways: • Single stranded • Uracil not thymine • Ribose not deoxyribose.
Vocabulary List #1: Semester 2 • 1. Gene- segment of chromosome/DNA that codes for a particular trait. • 2. mRNA- type of RNA that copies the DNA in the nucleus • 3. tRNA- type of RNA that attaches amino acids and has an anti-codon. • 4. Transcription- process of mRNA made from the DNA • 5. Translation- process of protein being made based off the mRNA
6. Codon- 3 base pairs on the mRNA • 7. Anti-codon- 3 base pairs on the tRNA • 8. Ribosome- organelle that makes proteins • 9. Amino acid- monomer of a protein • 10. Chromosome-strand of DNA in the nucleus • 11. Mutation- DNA that has become changed
DNA & RNA Working Together • Transcription – the process that DNA strands become separated, and mRNA copies one of the strands. • Notice mRNA is being made from DNA, and complimentary base pairing except with uracil.
Translation • Translation- occurs in the ribosome. • Takes the mRNA from the nucleus, tRNA from the ribosome and makes a protein. • PROTEINS = YOUR TRAITS
mRNA tRNA Protein • mRNA is made in the ____________, and then travels to the ______________, and attaches to a ___________ so protein formation can occur. • Translation- term used to describe mRNA and tRNA creating a protein. • The monomer of a protein is an ______ _____, and these are coded for by codons and anti-codons. • A codon is a _ letter sequence on the _____strand. • Each codon matches to an _______ , and an amino acid is linked together. • The amino acids link together to form a ____ which gives you your ________.

Mutations Point Mutations 4 types Chromosomal Mutations Deletion- entire piece of a chromosome is missing Duplication- two of the same gene are on the same chromosome. Inversion- gene is inserted upside down. Translocation- gene from one chromosome is put on the wrong one. • One nucleotide is inserted, deleted, or substituted. • Silent- no change • Missense- one amino acid is changed. • Nonsense- stop codon is inserted where it shouldn’t be • Frameshift- entire amino acid sequence changes

Assignment • In 1970 a man was accused of killing his beloved wife. All that was gathered at the crime scene was a bloody knife he was holding, and some unidentified hairs on his wife’s body. He maintains his innocence, and has contacted you a DNA expert to help exonerate him from prison. • Can you help him? • Use your knowledge of DNA base pair sequencing. • Outline the steps you will take to help him repeal his case.
Early Investigation of DNA • Scientists knew that DNA: • 1. Genes carried genetic information from one generation to another. • 2. Genes used DNA to code for an individual’s traits. • 3. Genes had to be easily duplicated, since each time a cell divides (mitosis) the DNA was copied as well.
