Protein Synthesis
Using the picture of protein synthesis on your table, answer the following questions. 1) Ais a(n) anticodon.2) B is a tRNA molecule.3) C is amRNAmolecule.4) D is the ribosome.5)E is a(n) amino acids. Where does of the first step of protein synthesis occur? Nucleus Ribosome Mitochondria Cytoplasm Where does the second step of protein synthesis occur? Nucleus Ribosomes Mitochondria Smooth ER Fill in the blanks. a) The first step of protein synthesis is transcriptionb) The second step of protein synthesis is translationc) The 3 bases on the mRNA strand are called codonsd) The 3 bases on the tRNA are called anticodon RNA vs DNA DNA Deoxyribose sugar Double stranded Thymine Only in nucleus RNA Single stranded Ribose sugar Uracil 3 different types Can leave the nucleus Transcription vs Translation Transcription DNA to mRNA Only in the nucleus RNA polymerase Translation mRNA to amino acids On the ribosomes Creates polypetide bonds tRNA molecules bring amino acids to the ribosome USE THE CODON CHART ON YOUR DESK TO DETERMINE THE AMINO ACID FOR THE NEXT THREE QUESTIONS.What is the amino acid that goes with the mRNA:AAG?
