7.3.1. State that transcription is carried out in a 5’→ 3’ direction.
Nucleotides are added in the form of ribonucleoside triphosphates

7.3.2. Distinguish between the sense and antisense strands of DNA.
Sense strand Anti-sense strand
Does it get transcribed?
No Yes
Is its base sequence the same as mRNA?
The sense strand has the same base sequence as the mRNA molecule, except that it contains thymine instead of uracil.
The anti-sense strand has a complementary base sequence to the mRNA molecule

Transcription: Going from the DNA code to the code of mRNA
RNA polymerase has two functions
The promoter is a region of the DNA of a specific sequence that signals the RNA polymerase where to start transcription
![Page 14: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

RNA polymerase unwinds the DNA and breaks the hydrogen bonds between the complementary bases
![Page 16: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Free floating nucleotides are added in a 5’ to 3’ direction. They are also added as ribonucleoside triphosphate (not show in the drawing)

The terminator is a region of DNA that signals to the RNA polymerase where to stop transcription
![Page 26: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

At the terminator the RNA polymerase falls off and a mRNA transcript has been formed

![Page 35: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
How many different mRNA codons can we make with adenine (A), uracil (U), guanine (G) and cytosine (C)?
AAAAAU….….
mRNA codon table
![Page 36: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Three mRNA codons are stop codons(UAA, UAG and UGA) , so they do not code for any amino acid.
So how many mRNA codons code for an amino acid?
![Page 37: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
tRNA molecule about to fold
7.4 : Translation
![Page 38: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
![Page 39: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
tRNA moleculeOnce in the cytoplasm, mRNA is translated from the nucleic acid language to the protein language by transfer RNA (tRNA) which acts as an interpreter. Transfer RNA does two things: 1) it recognizes the appropriate codons in mRNA and 2) it picks up the appropriate amino acids.
![Page 40: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
In the process of translation the mRNA codons bind to the anti-codons of tRNA molecules.
![Page 41: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
There are twenty amino acids.
![Page 42: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
There is a specific tRNA activating enzyme for each amino acid. So there are 20 different tRNA activating enzymes.
![Page 43: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Each tRNA activating enzyme recognizes all the different anti- codons on tRNA molecules for a particular amino acid and will attach the correct amino acid to the tRNA molecule. For example the tRNA activating enzyme for phenylalanine will recognize both the anticodons on the tRNA molecules for phenylalanine
![Page 44: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
t-RNA activating enzyme
20 different t-RNA activating enzymes; one for each of the 20 amino acids
7.4.1: Explain that each tRNA molecule is recognized by a tRNA-activating enzyme that binds a specific aminoacid to the tRNA, using ATP for energy.
![Page 45: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Each amino acid has a specific tRNA activating enzyme, and some amino acids have more than one tRNA.
The type of amino acid which can attach to a tRNA molecule depends on the sequence of the anticodon. A tRNA activating enzyme recognizes the anticodon and uses ATP to bind the appropriate amino acid to the 3' end.

Transfer RNA is a small molecule made up of only about 80 nucleotides. It is shaped like a cloverleaf. One of the loops on tRNA contains a base triplet called the anticodon. The anticodon is complementary to a codon triplet on the mRNA. At the other end of the tRNA molecule is a specific sequence of three nucleotides (CCA). The last nucleotide is the (A) and an amino acid can attach to it.
![Page 58: 7.3 Transcription in prokaryotes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815bb9550346895dc9b482/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)

Ribosome translocates one codon and a peptide bond is formed between the amino acids forming a polypeptide consisting of three amino acids. Elongation is the process of forming the polypeptide. The ribosome reads the mRNA from a 5’ to 3’ direction.

Elongation continues until one of three stop codons on the mRNA is reached.

At the stop codon the small and large robosomal subunits fall of the mRNA and the polypeptide is completed

IB Question: Translation occurs in living cells. Explain how translation is carried out, from theinitiation stage onwards. 8M10/4/BIOLO/HP2/ENG/TZ1/XX
translation involves initiation, elongation/translocation and termination; mRNA binds to the small sub-unit of the ribosome; ribosome slides along mRNA to the start codon; anticodon of tRNA pairs with codon on mRNA: complementary base pairing (between codon and anticodon); (anticodon of) tRNA with methionine pairs with start codon / AUG is the start codon; second tRNA pairs with next codon; peptide bond forms between amino acids; ribosome moves along the mRNA by one codon; movement in to direction; 5 3 tRNA that has lost its amino acid detaches; another tRNA pairs with the next codon/moves into A site; tRNA activating enzymes; link amino acids to specific tRNA; stop codon (eventually) reached; [9 max]
