24-25 RNA & Protein Synthesis

Front

DNA code: CGG TCG AGT GAT. What is the mRNA code?

Back

GCC AGC UCA CUA

Front

Is mRNA needed in protein synthesis because DNA cannot leave the cell?

Back

True

Front

Who is right about the model shown: Matthew (RNA) or Bradley (DNA)?

Back

Matthew is right because RNA is single-stranded while DNA is double-stranded

Front

Where did the original instructions for translation and protein synthesis at the ribosome originate?

Back

DNA in nucleus

Front

What type of macromolecule is being produced at the ribosome?

Back

Protein

Front

What are the nucleotides made of?

Back

Sugar, Phosphate, nitrogen base

Front

Which THREE RNA bases would signal a stop codon?

Back

UAA, UAG, UGA

Front

What is the role of mRNA in protein synthesis?

Back

To carry genetic information from DNA to the ribosome

Front

Enzymes that unzips the DNA and bonds nucleotides together in a chain to make a new RNA molecule.

Back

RNA polymerase

Front

a sequence of three bases of a tRNA molecule that pairs with the complementary three nucleotide codon of an mRNA molecule during protein synthesis; example anticodon CCC pairs with mRNA codon GGG

Back

anticodon
