1. Phosphate2. Sugar (Ribose)3. Nitrogenous Base
Question 3. Is mRNA single-stranded or double-stranded?
mRNA (messenger RNA): RNA that copies the coded message from DNA in the nucleus and carries the message into the cytoplasm.
Question 4. What are 3 differences between DNA and RNA?
Question 5. What is the mRNA sequence?
GACGAUUGA
Question 6. What is the sequence of the template DNA?
CTGCTAACT
Why does sequence matter?
Genetic Code: Order of nitrogenous bases that specifies what type of protein will be produced.
Gene: Segment of DNA that codes for a protein

Transcription: Process by which information on a strand of DNA is copied into a strand of mRNA.

Question 7. What would the mRNA sequence be?
GAC GAU UGA
GACGAUUGA
Codon: Sequence of three nucleotides that encodes a specific amino acid.
Protein Synthesis
Question 8. Where does replication take place?
Question 9. Where does transcription take place?
Question 10. Where does protein synthesis take place?
Transfer RNA: RNA in the cytoplasm that carries an amino acid to the ribosome and adds it to the growing protein chain.
mRNA attaches to the ribosome, where protein synthesis begins.
mRNA read in ‘triplicate’- 3-letter codes of bases specific for an amino acid
Attached amino acids become a protein chain.Question 11.
How many bases make a codon?
C T G C T A A C T
1. Convert DNA sequence to mRNA.
2. Use the chart to match codons to amino acids.
1. GAC GAU UGA
2. Val Val STOP
Translation: The process by which a protein is synthesized from the information
encoded on an mRNA strand.
