Translation inside or outside nucleus
inside
Ribosomes
The Genetic Code
20 different amino acids are found in proteins
How many stop codons
3
61 different codons
GLM / CAG / CAA
Glutamine
which amino acid has no redundancy
Methylamine /AUG
start of all protein synthesis
Methylamine /AUG
Tryptophan
anticodon
in all tRNA
ribosomes are always together when working
false they are separate always looking for AUG
three different sites
every three nucleotides you need a new tRNA
Will you ever find MET in the middle of a translation
nope, 99% of the time its only at the start
Initation
Elongation
tRNA Brings amino acids; builds the chain
Iclicker Question
peptide sequence
Translation termination
stop codon
Cystic Fibrosis
Lung is hit the hardest
they can’t get enough oxygen to breathe
Delta 508
most common CF mutation
Delta means change
T
Small changes have big consequences
1 amino acid change can give CF symptoms
the regulator in the cell membrane, allows chloride to leave and humans to sweat
people with CF don’t sweat
mucus just piles up and up in CF, because the chlorine and water doesn’t move. So bacteria grows a lot
