Document Summary

13. 1b the pathway from gene to polypeptide involves transcription and translation. Transcription is the mechanism by which the information encoded in dna is made into a complementary rna copy. Information in one nucleic acid type transferred to another nucleic acid type. Translation is the use of the information encoded in the rna to assemble amino acids into a polypeptide. Information in a nucleic acid, in the form of nucleotides, converted into different kind of molecule amino acids. Translation: mrna associates with a ribosome, a particle on which amino acids are linked into polypeptide chains, as ribosome moves along mrna, amino acids specified by mrna joined one by one to form polypeptide encoded by the gene. 13. 1c the genetic code is written in three-letter words using for-letter alphabet. Nucleotide information that specifies the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide is called the genetic code. Genetic information in dna first transcribed into complementary three-letter rna codons (t is replaced by.

Order the following choices to examine the process of transcription.

- RNA polymerase moves along the template strand of DNA adding complementary RNA nucleotides, extending the mRNA.

-RNA polymerase binds at the promoter region just upstream from the gene.

-RNA polymerase unwinds the DNA at the promoter site and begins to transcribe the template strand of DNA.

-Transcription continues until a termination site in the DNA is reached.

-The mRNA transcript is released.
