Assign Yourself: Transcription problems
• Do Now:1. What are 3 differences between DNA and RNA?2. Which is the universal code? (DNA, RNA, or
both)3. Which is made of nucleotides? (DNA, RNA, or
both)4. Which one is a nucleic acid? (DNA, RNA, or
both)

Before 1980: Insulin from livestock

Today: Insulin from E. coli bacteria

How is DNA organized?• Nucleotide = building block; just has 1 base (“letter”)• Gene = a piece of DNA with instructions to make 1
protein; 50 to 5000 bases (“letters”)• Chromosome = a very long piece of DNA wound
tightly into an X shape; millions of bases (“letters”)• Genome = all the DNA in all the chromosomes
inside a cell

Processing Piece• Draw a picture to represent how DNA is organized.
Use the words “nucleotide,” “gene,” “chromosome” and “genome.”
1. What organelle synthesizes (makes) proteins?2. Can the DNA ever leave the nucleus to go to the
ribosome?

What is transcription?• Transcription is when DNA is used to make mRNA.
Why is transcription important?• DNA can’t leave the nucleus. So, mRNA has to take
the instructions from the DNA to the ribosome.

Processing Piece:
• Draw a picture of to represent the process of transcription.
(Example: At a restaurant, a waitress writes down your order to carry it to the kitchen.)

How does transcription happen?1. DNA unwinds.2. RNA nucleotides pair with DNA nucleotides: A with U, G with C3. The RNA nucleotides form a mRNA strand.

Processing Piece:
• Illustrate each of the 3 steps of transcription.

What is RNA polymerase?
• An enzyme that helps make the mRNA strand during transcription.
