What is the one-way flow of information in living things called?
Central Dogma
View source
What are the two main steps in
protein synthesis
?
Transcription
and
Translation
View source
What is the
Central Dogma
of
molecular biology
?
DNA
→
RNA
→
Protein
View source
Where does
transcription
occur in
eukaryotes
and
prokaryotes
?
In the
nucleus
of eukaryotes and the
cytoplasm
of prokaryotes
View source
What
enzyme
is responsible for transcription?
RNA polymerase
View source
What does
RNA polymerase
do during
transcription
?
It binds to DNA at
promoter regions
and separates the strands
View source
What type of RNA is produced during transcription?
mRNA
View source
What
base pairing
occurs during
transcription
?
A
pairs with
U
and
G
pairs with
C
View source
If the
DNA
strand is TACGCATGGAAT, what is the corresponding
mRNA
sequence?
AUG
-
CGU
-
ACC
-
UUA
View source
What is the
start codon
in the
genetic code
?
AUG
View source
What amino acid does the start codon
AUG
code for?
Methionine
View source
How many
stop codons
are there in the
genetic code
?
Three
View source
What are the three
stop codons
?
UGA
,
UAA
,
UAG
View source
What is the role of
tRNA
in
translation
?
Brings amino acids to the
ribosome
Matches its
anticodon
with the
mRNA codon
Helps in forming the
polypeptide chain
View source
Where does
mRNA
go after it is formed?
It comes out of the nucleus and attaches to a
ribosome
View source
What happens to the
polypeptide chain
during
translation
?
It grows until it reaches a
stop codon
View source
What is the function of the
anticodon
in
tRNA
?
It is complementary to the
mRNA
codon
View source
How does the process of
transcription
differ from
translation
?
Transcription copies
DNA
into
RNA
, while translation converts RNA into proteins
View source
What are the steps involved in the process of translation?
mRNA
attaches to the
ribosome
tRNA
brings amino acids to the ribosome
Anticodon
of tRNA pairs with codon of mRNA
Polypeptide
chain grows until a stop codon is reached
View source
How many possible
codons
are there in the
genetic code
?
64
View source
What are the bonds that link amino acids together called?
Peptide bonds
View source
What is the
amino acid
sequence coded for by the
mRNA
sequence
AUG
-CGU-ACC-UUA?
Methionine
-
Arginine
-
Threonine
-
Leucine
