Gravity
the process of protein sythesis
Terms in this set (62)
transcription
the process where the DNA sequence in a gene is copied into mRNA
translation
the process where genetic information coded in mRNA directs the formation of a specific protein at a ribosome
mRNA
type of RNA that carries instructions from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome
tRNA
type of RNA that carries amino acids to the ribosome
codon
sequence of three bases on a strand of mRNA that provides genetic code information for a particular amino acid
anticodon
group of three bases on a tRNA molecule that are complementary to an mRNA codon
complementary base pairing
In DNA, T pairs with A; G pairs with C;
RNA, U pairs with A and G pairs with C
cytoplasm
A jellylike fluid inside the cell in which the organelles are suspended
ribosome
organelles at which proteins are synthesized.
nucleus
A part of the cell containing DNA
amino acid
building block of protein
adenine
pairs with uracil in RNA
cytosine
pairs with guanine
nitrogenous bases
adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine, uracail
deoxyribose
sugar in DNA
ribose
sugar in RNA
nucleotide
consists of a phosphate group, sugar, and nitrogen base
transcription
process by which a section of DNA is used to produce a single-stranded RNA molecule
translation
the process whereby genetic information coded in messenger RNA directs the formation of a specific protein at a ribosome in the cytoplasm
mRNA
Carries the genetic code for a protein from the nucleus to the ribosomes where the proteins are assembled.
tRNA
type of RNA that carries each amino acid to a ribosome during protein synthesis
ribosome
organelle where amino acids are bonded together to form proteins
codon
three-base sequence on messenger RNA that codes for a single amino acid
anticodon
group of three bases on a tRNA molecule that are complementary to an mRNA codon
DNA
A double-stranded, helical nucleic acid molecule capable of replicating and determining the inherited structure of a cell's proteins.
transcription
The first stage of protein synthesis where the information on a section of DNA (a gene) is copied by making a mRNA molecule from the DNA.
translation
The second part of protein synthesis. The mRNA code is used to synthesize a specific protein at a ribosome in the cytoplasm
mRNA
What is C? It takes the information in a gene from the nucleus to a ribosome in the cytoplasm.
ribosome
What is A? The site of protein synthesis. Where a specific amino acid sequence is assembled based on a mRNA code
Amino Acid chain or protein or polypeptide
What is B?
tRNA
What is A? Brings the correct amino acid to the ribosome to be added to the growing amino acid chain.
codon
What is A? A three base sequence on an mRNA molecule that codes for a specific amino acid
anticodon
What is A? A three base sequence on a tRNA molecule that is complimentary to a codon on an mRNA.
DNA
What is A? Double stranded molecule that contains genes and is found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.
