What is Protein Synthesis?

• How your cell makes very important How your cell makes very important proteinsproteins

Page 3: PROTEIN SYNTHESIS. What is Protein Synthesis? How your cell makes very important proteinsHow your cell makes very important proteins.

Why are Proteins Important?

• Well, for starters, you are made of proteins.• 50% of the dry weight of a cell is protein of

one form or another. • Meanwhile, proteins also do all of the heavy

lifting in your body: – digestion, circulation, immunity, communication

between cells, motion-all are made possible by one or more of the estimated 100,000 different proteins that your body makes.

• The production (synthesis) of proteinsproteins.

Before making proteins, Your Before making proteins, Your cell must first make RNAcell must first make RNA

• Question:Question:

• How does RNARNA (ribonucleic acid) (ribonucleic acid) differ from DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)?

Page 7: PROTEIN SYNTHESIS. What is Protein Synthesis? How your cell makes very important proteinsHow your cell makes very important proteins.

RNARNA differs from DNADNA

1. RNARNA has a sugar ribosesugar ribose

DNADNA has a sugar deoxyribosesugar deoxyribose

2. RNARNA contains uracil (U)uracil (U)

DNADNA has thymine (T)thymine (T)

3. RNARNA molecule is single-strandedsingle-stranded

DNADNA is double-strandeddouble-stranded

1. Transcription 1. Transcription (mRNA production) (mRNA production)

• RNA molecules are produced by copying part of DNA into a complementary sequence of mRNA

• This process is started and controlled by an enzyme called RNA polymerase.

Question:Question:

• What would be the complementary RNARNA strand for the following DNADNA sequence?

• DNA 5’-GCGTATG-3’DNA 5’-GCGTATG-3’

Types of RNATypes of RNA

• Three types ofThree types of RNARNA:

A.A. messenger RNA (mRNA)messenger RNA (mRNA)

B.B. transfer RNA (tRNA)transfer RNA (tRNA)

C.C. ribosome RNA (rRNA)ribosome RNA (rRNA)

• Remember: all produced in theRemember: all produced in the nucleusnucleus!!

mRNA

• Carries instructions from DNA to the rest of the ribosome.

• Tells the ribosome what kind of protein to make

• Acts like an email from the principal to the cafeteria lady.

2. elongationelongation:

3. terminationtermination: stop codon (UAG)
