10. DNA Replication
The main
:requirements are
DNA Helicase •
DNA Polymerase •
Free nucleotides •
such as: dTTP,
.dATP, dCTP, dGTP
Unwinding proteins •
11. Structure of RNA
RNA is a single-stranded polymers of
nucleotides, the pentose sugar is always
ribose , and the bases are Adenine, Guanine,
.Cytosine, and Uracil
:Types of RNA
).a) Precursor RNA ( pre-RNA
).b) Messenger RNA ( m-RNA
).c) Transfer RNA ( t-RNA
).d) Ribosomal RNA ( r- RNA
12. Protein synthesis
Starts at
nucleus by
formation of
mRNA through
a process
called
transcription
13.
14. RNA processing
mRNA is
processed in the
nucleus
Intron are removed
Exons are joined
15. t-RNA
= Single strand
= Bend on
itself to form
three loop
regions.
= one loop
contains the
anticodon.
= it carries aa
at one end.
19. Translation
Then go to the
ribosomes in
cytoplasm where it’s
genetic code is
translated into amino
acids by a process
called translation.
