8.4/8.5 Protein Synthesis Flashcards
1
Q
What is the protiome?
A
All proteins expressed
2
Q
What are the steps of protein synthesis?
A
Transcription
Splicing
Diffusion into cytoplasm
Translation
3
Q
What does DNA polymerase do?
A
Copies complementary bases
4
Q
Describe transcription
A
DNA helicase breaks H bonds
Free nucleotides from cytoplasm join to complementary bases
RNA polymerase makes phosphodiester bond for mRNA
H bonds between mRNA and DNA
H bonds breaks between DNA and mRNA and the mRNA moves away
mRNA is spliced to remove introns
