Document Summary

Promoter: start of the sequence where rna polymerase starts. Tata box: promoter need to identify and recognise tata boxes to begin copying. Alternative splicing: creates different mrna and protons. Introns are the ones removed and exons are the coding sequence. Brings in 3 anticodon that code a section of rna: amino acid. Uses gtp to gdp (reduction) to use energy: stop codon. A release factor binds with the stop codon, polypeptide chain is made and released individually. In bacteria, transcription and translation can happen simultaneously. Missense: one aa sub for another, no effect on protein, or a critical aa (at catalytic side) can completely wipe out the function of the protein, where it lies, what function. Nonsense: introduce stop where it used to have codon. Translation stop as long as ribosome hits the stop codon (dramatic mutation). Frameshift: everything moved to left, 1 or 2 insertation or deletion, the frame is maintained correctly.

An anticodon on a tRNA has the sequence 5'âGCAâ3'. What would be the effect on translation if the G in the anticodon were mutated to a U?

The anticodon could pair to the serine codon 5'âUCAâ3', and a cysteine would be incorporated at all points where a serine should have been incorporated.

The anticodon could pair to the threonine codon 5'âACUâ3', and a threonine would be incorporated at all points where a cysteine should have been incorporated.

The anticodon could pair to the serine codon 5'âAGUâ3', and a serine would be incorporated at all points where a cysteine should have been incorporated.

The anticodon could pair to the stop codon 5'âUGAâ3', and instead of stopping translation, a cysteine would be incorporated and translation could continue.
