Protein synthesis Flashcards
What is the protein synthesis - transduction and translation steps?
Through internal or external chemical messenger - dna is activated to produce a pre MRNA copy of the functional gene (transcription)
The pre-mRNA is modified to remove introns and remaining Econ’s are linked together to form mRNA.
Then the mRNA leaves the nucleares and enter a the cytoplasm
mRNA buns to ribosome that contains rRNA / which helps controls protein synthesis (translation)
Another rna , tRNA transports amino acid to subunits to the Robson where they are assmebeled into polypeptides (activation and transport.)
Transcription:
- transciption engines when transaction factors bind to promoter bear the gene
- RNA polymerase bonds to the promoter as well and a segment of DNA unwinds
- termination : tea option ends when the of the gene is reached and the mRNA transcript is released
What is the function of tRNA?
It’s function for getting the right amino acids to the ribosome synthesis there are 40 different trans. Each one coding for a specific amino acid.
Translation :
—- initiation - translation begins when an intitaTor tRNA bonds with the mRNA and start the codon in the ribosome.
Elongation
- Another tRNA bonds to hit open A site
- b the first amino acid detached from the tRNA at the p site and is joined to the second amino acid peptide bond.
- Termination - translation end when the ribosome reached the stop codon and the completed polypeptide is released
