The copying of DNA into RNA.
Transcription
The making of RNA into protein
Translation
Takes place in the nuclues
Transcription
Takes place in the ribosome
Translation
A three nucleotide base sequence that codes for one amino acid
Codon
Has three base pairs
Codon
The portion of mRNA that codes for amino acids
Exon
A section of mRNA that is removed from transcription
Intron
The codon that is often the start of a sequence of amino acids
Start codon
AUG is and example of…
Start codon
The codon that is often the end of a sequence of amino acids
Stop codon
UGA, UAA, and UAG are all examples of…
Stop codons
T A C G C T A C C T T A G C G A T T
Translate to mRNA
A U G C G A U G G A A U C G C U A A
A genetic mutation caused by a deletion or insertion in a DNA sequence that shifts the way the subsequent codons are read
Frameshift mutation
Mutation that only happens to a single nucleotide
Point Mutation
Mutation that can happen to a whole chromosome
Frameshift mutation
A mutation where the amino acid produced following the mutation is the same as before.
Silent Mutation
This mutation has little to no effect on the resulting protein
Silent Mutation
Biomolecule is produced as a result of translation
Protein
Monomer of protein
Amino acid
Bond that connects amino acids
Peptide bonds
Stays in the nucleus
DNA
Travels from the nucleus
RNA
Makes copy of DNA.
