CENTRAL DOGMAHOW DNA BECOMES YOU
CENTRAL DOGMA
The idea that DNA is a code that dictates who you are.
TRANSCRIPTION
DNA gets rewritten into RNA
DNA Strand
RNA Strand
RNA
Ribonucleic Acid
Single Strand
Has Uracil instead of Thymine
Nitrogenous Bases: A, C, U, G
TRANSCRIPTION
-Occurs in Nucleus
-RNA Polymerase makes the RNA
TRANSCRIPTION PRACTICE
DNA Strand: A T G G T C C
RNA Strand:
RNA:A – UC – G
TRANSCRIPTION PRACTICE
DNA STRAND:
A T G T A T G A T C C G A C G T G
RNA STRAND:
TRANSLATION
“Translates” RNA sequences into amino-acid chains
Amino Acid Chains make up proteinsProtein Chain
RNA
TRANSLATING
Split RNA sequence into sets of three bases (triplet-codons)
AUGCGCAAUCAG
AUG | CGC | AAU | CAG
TRANSLATINGAUG | CGC | AAU | CAG
TRANSLATE THIS SEQUENCE (AS A GROUP)
AUGUAGCCGCCCTGA
TRANSLATE THIS SEQUENCE (AT YOUR TABLE)
AUGGGGAAAUAGUUACCG
SNORK ACTIVITY
You will make your own SNORK based on the genetic code given
1.Transcribe the sequence into RNA
2.Translate the sequence into an amino-acid chain
3.Find what A.A. sequence codes for what trait
Graph this data. Use what ever graph you think to be the correct one.
TRANSCRIBE AND TRANSLATE THIS INTO AN AMINO ACID CHAIN
