Central Dogma of Biology
• _____________________________________:- Transcription: The decoding of DNA into
mRNA- Translation: The decoding of an mRNA
message into a polypeptide chain

Proteins
• Proteins are made of: ____________________• A few ___________ joined together are called
polypeptide chain:- Each poly peptide contains a combination of
any or all of the 20 different amino acids- The property of the protein is determined by
the order of the amino acids

Translation
• The “language” of the mRNA instruction is called the genetic code
• How can a code with just 4 letter (A,U,C,G) carry instruction for 20 amino acid?
- The genetic code is read 3 letters at a time- Eg. UCGCACGGUThis sequence would be read 3 bases at a time:
UCG-CAC-GGU

Translation• Each 3 letter “word” in mRNA is know as a
codon:- A codon consist of 3 consecutive nucleotides
that specify a single amino acid- eg. Using codons, the sequence
UCG-CAC-GGU would be translated into:
Serine – Histidine – Glysine

Problems
• Transcribe the following DNA sequence into mRNA:
T A C A A G G G T C A C A T C
• Translate the above mRNA into protein:

Codons• Some amino acids can be specified by more than one
codone.g. 6 different codons specify the amino acid
leucine • One codon can only code for one amino acid
e.g. the codon CAG can only code for the amino acid Glutamine• The codon AUG, code for ____________, serves as the
start codon• There are 3 “Stop” codon that do not code for any
amino acid

Ribosome
• Before transformation can occur, mRNA must be transcribed from DNA in the nucleus and released into the cytoplasm
• Translation happens in the ribosomes in the cytoplasm

tRNA• tRNA: transporting specific amino
acid to the ribosome to be added on the growing polypeptide chain
• Each tRNA has:- An amino acid attach to one end- A region of 3 unpaired bases at
the other end (anticodon): the bases on the anticodon are complementary to the mRNA codons
E.g. the anticodon base for AUG would be UAC

Translation
• The ribosome joins the two amino acids on the two adjacent tRNA and moves along the mRNA binding more amino acids to the peptide chain
