Document Summary

Chapter 10: dna replication: describe the central dogma in molecular biology and the important phases and components of expression of genetic information. The central dogma is that dna encodes for rna and rna encodes for a protein. Transcription is the process by which dna sequences are converted into mrna sequences. Translation is the process by which the mrna sequences are used as a template to encode and create amino acids that form a polypeptide. Dna is a double stranded molecule composed of nucleotide bases, a phosphate backbone, and deoxyribose sugars. One strand serves as the template and the other as the non- template/coding strand arranged antiparallel to each other: list some of the major difference between dna and rna. Dna: stores genetic information for most living organisms, double stranded, A-t, g-c, found in the nucleus of cell, self replicating, h group at 2 prime. C, stable under alkaline conditions, made of deoxyribose sugar.
