Central Dogma of Molecular Biology
• The flow of information in the cell starts at DNA, which replicates to form more DNA. Information is then ‘transcribed” into RNA, and then it is “translated” into protein. The proteins do most of the work in the cell.

F. Types of RNA1. Messenger RNA (mRNA): long, single stranded molecule that
carries DNA message to the ribosomes
![Page 9: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
2. Transfer RNA (tRNA): small clover-leaf shaped molecules that pick up amino acids and take them to the ribosomes
![Page 10: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
3. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA): makes up the structure of ribosomes along with proteins
![Page 11: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
rRNA • rRNA—ribosomal RNA– Two subunits
• Ribosome “reads” mRNA and produces a polypepide
![Page 12: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
3 Types of RNA
• 1.mRNA– Messenger RNA
• Single strand• Serves as a
template (pattern for translation)
![Page 13: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3 Types of RNA
• 2. tRNA– Transfer RNA
• 20+ types of tRNA
• Cloverleaf shape• Each tRNA is
specific for an amino acid
![Page 14: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
3 Types of RNA
• 3. rRNA– Ribosomal RNA
• Globular• 2 parts compose
the ribosome• Where are they
made?
![Page 15: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
F. The roles of RNA
1. RNA is not the genetic material and does not need to be capable of serving as a template for its own replication.
2. RNA functions as the intermediate, the mRNA, between the gene and the protein-synthesizing machinery.
3. RNA functions as an adaptor, the tRNA, between the codons in the mRNA and amino acids.
![Page 16: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
F. The roles of RNA
4. RNA also play a structural role, as in the case of the RNA components of the ribosome.
5. RNA is as a regulatory molecule, which through sequence complementarity binds to, and interferes with the translation of, certain mRNAs.
6. Some RNAs are enzymes that catalyze essential reactions in the cell.
![Page 17: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The phosphate groups of DNA and RNA are
negatively charged
A phosphodiester group has a pKa of about 1, and so will always be ionized and negatively charged under physiological conditions (pH ~7).
Nucleic acids require counterions such as Mg2+, polyamines, histones or other proteins to balance this charge.

TranscriptionA. Transcription: the process in
which DNA makes a complementary copy of mRNA
B. Steps of transcription1. DNA untwists and bases separate2. Only a small section of the DNA is involved and only one strand acts as the template
![Page 19: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
3. RNA polymerase adds RNA nucleotides in the correct order as indicated by the DNA molecule
![Page 20: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
4. Base pairing rules applya. If DNA has a T, RNA
will match by adding Ab. If DNA has an A, RNA
will match by adding Uc. If DNA has a C, RNA
will match by adding Gd. If DNA has a G, RNA
will match by adding C
![Page 21: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

• “unzips” DNA and adds RNA nucleotides in the 5’ 3” direction
![Page 24: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Transcription• Promotor
– Site where the polymerase attaches
• Termination site– Site where
transcription ends• Transcription Unit
– The stretch of DNA transcribed
![Page 25: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Transcription• In eukaryotes, the
mRNA is modified after transcription
• A 5’ cap is added (guanine nuicleotide)
• Poly A tail (adenine)
• 50-250 nucleotides long
![Page 26: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

RNA ProcessingA. There are large sections
of RNA molecules that are not used in making protein. These must be cut out before the RNA leaves the nucleus
![Page 28: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
B. Sections that are cut out (not used to make the protein) are called introns
C. Sections that are used to make the protein are called exons (they are expressed)
D. Some parts of RNA molecules may be exons when one protein is made and introns when another protein is made
![Page 29: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The Genetic CodeA. Tells the cell how to assemble a
proteinB. Proteins determine the structure
and function of organismsC. Proteins are made of amino
acidsD. The bases in mRNA (as made
from DNA) determine what amino acids will be assembled into a protein
![Page 30: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
E. 20 amino acids can be assembled into thousands of proteins
F. This works similar to the way letters are assembled to make words- 26 letters in English alphabet make thousands of words
![Page 31: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
G. Codon: a sequence of 3 bases in mRNA that codes for 1 amino acid1. Examples
GUG = valineGUA = valineGUC = valine
![Page 32: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
GAC = aspartic acidGAU = aspartic acidUCU = serineUCC = serineUCG = serine
Which base could vary and still stand for the same amino acid?
- 3rd base
![Page 33: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
2. The genetic code is redundant: more than 1 codon can stand for 1 amino acid3. The genetic code is NOT ambiguous: 1 codon cannot stand for more than 1 amino acid
![Page 34: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
4. Special codonsAUG = methionine = “start” = the first codon of every proteinUAA = stopUAG = stopUGA = stop – these end a
protein

Translation
A. Translation: the process in which the mRNA message is decoded and a protein is made.
B. Steps in translation1. mRNA made in the nucleus leaves and travels to a ribosome2. mRNA attaches to a ribosome
![Page 38: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
3. The ribosome reads the first codon, which is always AUG4. A tRNA that has a sequence of three complementary bases to mRNA brings in the appropriate amino acid. The complementary bases on tRNA are called an anticodon.
![Page 39: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
5. The ribosome reads the second codon and a tRNA with a matching anticodon brings in a second amino acid6. The ribosome joins the two amino acids with a linkage that is called a peptide bond7. The ribosome moves down and reads the next codon
![Page 40: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
8. tRNA molecules keep bringing in the appropriate amino acids9. The process continues until a “stop” codon is reached10. The polypeptide leaves the
ribosome and folds to become a protein
![Page 41: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Translation
• Three stages of translation1. Initiation2. Elongation3. Termination
![Page 43: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Initiation
• Small ribosomal subunit binds to both the mRNA and the tRNA
• Large ribosomal subunit attaches
![Page 44: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Elongation • Codon recognition--mRNA and tRNA form hydrogen bonds at the “A” site of the ribosome
• Peptide bond forms between amino acid at the “A” site and the growing polypeptide at the “P” site
• Translocation– Ribosome moves the
tRNA with polypeptide from the “A” to the “P”
Exit site
![Page 45: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

Termination• Translation
continues until “stop” codon on mRNA—UAA, UAG, or UGA
• Polyribosomes• Multiple ribosomes
translating the same rRNA (polysomes)
![Page 47: RNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070416/5681511c550346895dbf3be6/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
