Transcription/Translation foldable Fold your paper so the two ends meet in the middle. Label Transcription on one side and Translation on the other.
Definition: DNA is transcribedinto mRNA. Location? Nucleus (holds DNA to control cell) Why? DNA cannot leave the nucleus, so the messengerRNA is made to carry the code to the ribosome. Cut out the picture below. Label and color the DNA blue and the mRNA red. Transcription
Translation • Definition: mRNA nucleotide code is translated into an amino acid sequence to build a protein. tRNA helps by doing the actual translation from 3 nucleotides to 1 amino acid. • Location: ribosome (builds proteins) • Why? The structures and functions of a cell/organism are built or carried out by proteins.
Translation con’t Cut out the picture below. Label and color: mRNA –red (B) tRNA-green Amino acids-yellow Ribosome-pink Circle 3 bases on mRNA and label as codon. Circle complementary 3 bases on tRNA and label as anti-codon. Label the amino acid sequence.
Cut out the steps of protein synthesis, and glue them in order on the back of your foldable. http://www.woodrow.org/teachers/bi/1994/protein_synthesis.html
