The Connection between Genes and Proteins
• The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify proteins
• One-gene-one-enzyme hypothesis
![Page 3: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Transcription and Translation: Two Main Processes
• DNA synthesizes RNA:– Transcription
• RNA synthesizes Protein:– Translation
![Page 4: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Genetic Code
• Triplet sequence of nucleotides
• smallest units of uniform length to allow translation of all 20 amino acids
• codon- triplet on mRNA
![Page 5: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Synthesis and Processing of RNA
• Three types of RNA: mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA• eukaryotes have three polymerases• RNA polymerase II responsible for mRNA
synthesis• Transcription subdivided into three stages:
Initiation, elongation and termination• RNA must be processed before it can function
![Page 6: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Transcription• Initiation:
– RNA polymerase binds to promoter region,TATA box plays critical role during initiation
• Elongation: – RNA polymerase unwinds DNA and adds
nucleotides, 10 bases long, grows 5' to 3' direction.• Termination:
– terminator sequence (AAUAAA) stops transcription
• DNA reforms double helix, RNA “peals” off template DNA (gene)

Transcription
![Page 8: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Post Transcriptional Modification(RNA Processing)
• Capping: modified GTP added to 5' end of mRNA
• Poly (A) tail: 20-200 adenine nucleotides added to 3' end of mRNA
• RNA splicing
![Page 9: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Functions of the 5' Cap
• Protect mRNA from hydrolytic degradation
• Identifies mRNA to the small ribosomal subunit
![Page 10: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Functions of the Poly (A) tail
• Inhibit degradation if mRNA in the cytosol
• Facilitates mRNA export from the nucleus• Small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs):
identify and help bring about the splicing process
• Separated from the stop codon by trailer sequence
![Page 11: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
RNA Splicing
• Introns: noncoding sequences that are removed
• Exons: coding sequences that are spliced together
• Spliceosome: catalyzes splicing reactions
![Page 12: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
RNA Splicing
![Page 13: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Role of Introns• May control gene activity• May allow a single gene to synthesize several different
proteins
![Page 14: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Translation(The synthesis of proteins)
• tRNA• Ribosomes• Aminoacyl-tRNA
synthases
![Page 15: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
tRNA• Interpreter between
base sequence of mRNA and amino acid sequence of protein
• 45 different types• About 80 nucleotides
long• Anticodon base pairs
with codon of mRNA
![Page 16: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• A tRNA molecule consists of a strand of about 80 nucleotides that folds back on itself to form a three-dimensional structure.– It includes a loop containing the anticodon and an
attachment site at the 3’ end for an amino acid.

Ribosomes
• Coordinate the pairing of tRNA with mRNA
• Two subunits• Constructed in the
nucleus• Three binding sites
– P site – A site – E site
![Page 18: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Aminoacyl-tRNA Synthase
• 20 different types• Two steps:
– activation of amino acid with AMP
– attachment of the amino acid to tRNA
![Page 19: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Building a polypeptide(Translation)
• Initiation: – brings mRNA, tRNA, and the two ribosomal
subunits together• Elongation:
– three-step cycle that adds amino acids one by one to the initial amino acid, requires cooperation of several
• Termination: – release of the polypeptide chain from the complex.
![Page 20: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Initiation• 5' cap attaches to small ribosome subunit• tRNA carrying methionine attaches to mRNA codon• Large ribosomal subunit attaches
![Page 21: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Elongation
• Codon recognition: – tRNA directed into the A site by an elongation
factor• Peptide bond forms between adjacent amino acids• Translocation:
– amino acid in the A site is moved to the P site• mRNA moves through the ribosome 5'3'
direction
![Page 22: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Termination
• Termination sequence is encountered• Release factor binds to sequence• Release factor separates polypeptide and tRNA
![Page 23: From Gene to Protein AP Biology Mrs. King The Connection between Genes and Proteins The study of metabolic defects provided evidence that genes specify.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/5697bf821a28abf838c85bb9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Point Mutations

secretory protein• Identify that protein for movement into the lumen of
the rough ER• Responsible for “producing” attached ribosomes
