Structure of RNA
• Similar to DNA• 5 carbon sugar• Phosphate group• Nitrogenous base
• 3 main differences• Ribose sugar rather than deoxyribose• Single stranded rather than double stranded• Bases are Adenine, Uracil, Guanine, Cytosine
• Disposable copy of DNA

Types of RNA
• mRNA• The message of DNA to code for a gene
• tRNA• Used to bring amino acids together when creating proteins
• rRNA• Forms ribosomes, along with proteins

Transcription
• Production of RNA from DNA• Requires RNA polymerase• Function?
• Started by helicase proteins • Promoters • Regions of DNA that allows RNA polymerase to bind to it• Signal points for the beginning of a gene

After Transcription
• RNA produced requires editing before it is an active form• Introns: sequences of DNA found in eukaryotic genes• Must be removed from RNA before it can be used to produce proteins
• Exons: segments of DNA that code for proteins• Stay in DNA
• Both introns and exons are formed from DNA

Genetic Code
• Amino acids are joined together in long chains to form proteins (polypeptides) • Each combination of amino acids means the proteins have different
properties • Codon• Three nucleotides that code for a specific amino acid• mRNA is read 3 bases at a time, each 3 bases is one codon
• UCGCACGGU UCG-CAC-GGU Serine – Histidine – Glycine

Translation
• Turning mRNA into a protein • Requires ribosomes• Occurs in 3 steps• mRNA in cytoplasm attaches to a ribosome. mRNA moves through the
ribosome, each codon is read and a tRNA brings the matching amino acid and attaches them together. • Peptide bond is formed between amino acids to hold protein together. At the
same time, ribosome breaks the bond holding the amino acid to the tRNA then releases the tRNA. • Continues to grow until the ribosome reads a stop codon

Genes and Proteins
• Proteins control every physical characteristic• Genes control production of enzymes to produce skin pigment • Genes also control enzyme production that determines blood type
