Document Summary

Dna replication is when you make a copy of the dna. It is semiconservative because there is one old strand and one new one. Transcription occurs in the nucleus. mrna goes into the cytoplasm toward the rough er. Rna polymerase synthesizes rna: give the differences between rna and dna. The part of transcript that are excised from mrna are called _____. The parts that code for protein are called _____. After the original is made it is spliced. Regions of mrna corresponding to introns are snipped out by enzymes. Parts that code for the protein are called exons. A promoter is where the rna polymerase binds to. Translation is making the protein from the dna. Protein synthesis takes place in cytoplasm on the surface of the rough er. Each codon codes for 20 amino acids and 64 codons. Each amino acid can have more than one codon. Each codon only codes for one amino acid.
