Document Summary

13. 1b the pathway from gene to polypeptide involves transcription and translation. 13. 1c the genetic code is written in three-letter words using a four-letter alphabet. Transcription: mechanism by which information encoded in dna is made into a complementary rna copy: enzyme rna polymerase creates an rna sequence that is complementary to the. Dna sequence of a given gene: template strand: dna strand that is copied into an rna molecule during gene transcription, mrna: rna molecule that serves as a template for protein synthesis. Translation: the use of information encoded in the rna to assemble amino acids into a polypeptide: mrna: + ribosome (amino acids linked into polypeptide chain) Central dogma: flow of information from dna to rna to protein. Both nucleic acids share three of the four bases but differ in the other one: t in dna is equivalent to u in rna.
