Protein synthesis
DNA Proteins
It is a two step process:
1) Transcription - is the mechanism by which the
information encoded in DNA is transcribed into a
complementary RNA copy.
-
Step 2: Elongation
DNA splits where RNA polymerase binds
and starts to unravel.
RNA polymerase attaches matching
bases to form a new RNA strand from the
DNA template.
RNA is made in the 53 direction, using
the 35 DNA strand as a template
strand.
Step 3: Termination
When RNA polymerase reaches the
termination site, copying stops
RNA polymerase leaves the DNA.
RNA strand is released.
DNA rewinds itself into the double helix.
Translation
From RNA to proteins
Translation is the assembly of amino acids
into a polypeptide using the information
encoded in the mRNA.
Ribosomes have 2
subunits.
TIME TO STOP
When a stop codon
(UAG,UGA,UAA)
reaches the A site,
there is no anticodon
for it, so the ribosome
falls apart releasing the
new protein chain
Translation
Its a continuous
process
