Document Summary

The assembly of amino acids into polypeptides. In prokaryotes this process take place throughout the cell. In eukaryotes this takes place mostly in the cytoplasm: ) mrna messenger rna. Read in a 5" to 3" orientation: ) trna transfer rna. Bring amino acids to the ribosomes for addition to the polypeptide chain. Internal anticodon (3-nucleotide segment) is complimentary to mrna codons trna and mrna bind antiparallel to one another ex. trna linked to seranine pairs with codon agu in mrna. The anticodon of the trna that pairs with this is uca. Attached to 3" prime end is an amino acid specific to the anticodon distinctive structures. Anticodon is at the bottom of the structure. You could predict what the anticodon is because of the genetic code. More than one codon that codes for a protein. Amino acid attaches to the transfer end of the trna it has to be charged amino acylation (the addition of an amino acid)

Some Processes Involved in DNA Replication

1.The replication origin is identified.

2 DNA primase builds RNA primer.

3Okazaki fragments are spliced by DNA ligase.

4Helicases bind and uncoil the DNA double helix.

Question 3:

like mRNA, tRNA has a ribose sugar, U instead of T, and issingle stranded. Unlike mRNA, which remains a long single strand ofnucleotides, tRNA folds so that some areas pair up.

The resulting structure has an anticodon on one end and a site foran amino acid to attach on the other end. There is basecomplementarity (A pairs with U and G pairs with C) between an mRNAcodon and tRNA anticodon.

If the amino acid tyrosine attaches to a tRNA, which of thefollowing anticodons could be at the opposite end of the tRNAmolecule?

Select one:

a. ATA and ATG

b. UAU and UAC

c. AUA and AUG

d. AGA and AGU
