a necessary component of protein synthesis (= synthesis of proteins) • synthesis of proteins = protein synthesis : • fundamental process, by which the information from DNA is transferred into a particular sign • polynucleotide chain RNA
three types of RNA: • 1) m RNA messenger mediator • linear • synthesis in the cell nucleus • enzyme RNA – polymerase • the triplet of nucleotides after each other following on mRNA is called codon RNA
the nitrogen base is bound on the ribosome carbon in position1, • different from DNA because of the occurance of uracil instead of thymine • remaining bases (adenine, cytosine, guanine) are identical on both nucleic acids RNA
RNA very various: • mono helix and linear molecules • also double helix structures > t RNA • 3 types of RNA: • m RNA • t RNA • r RNA RNA
1) m RNA messenger mediator • information • it develops by the transcription from DNA (enzyme RNA – polymerase) • hundreds to thousands of nucleotides • linear • synthesis of m RNA in the cell nucleus • a triplet of nucleotides following behind each other placed on mRNA is called codon RNA
RNA • 2) t RNA transfer • complicated structure • short – 74 až 95 nucleotides • the cord creates 4 arms • secondary structure - it reminds a shamrock trefoil
RNA • particular arms attach to each other => they make up a more complex space formation – so called tertiary structure
RNA • AMA bind on the acceptor arm • anticodon arm it contains a triplet of nucleotides = anticodon • each anticodon in tRNA is complementary to the particular triplet of nucleotides in mRNA – to the codon
3) rRNA ribosomal • contained in ribosomes • translation proceeds on ribosomes • genetic information transcribed from DNA into mRNA determines the order of aminoacids in the protein chain RNA
