LO: SWBAT explain how protein shape is determined and differentiate between the different types of mutations. DN: h/0 protein synthesis HW: Read pp # 1-5
2
HW: page 306 #1-5 Types of RNA: mRNA, tRNA
Transcription: mRNA makes a copy of DNA in the nucleus Translation: tRNA reads mRNA codons (3 bases) and brings the correct amino acid to the ribosome Sugar: DNA= deoxribose, RNA= ribose Bases: DNA has T and RNA has U DNA: double stranded, RNA: single stranded 5. UGG CAG UGC Try Glu Cys
3
All are proteins with a specific shape that determines their function.
What do enzymes, antibodies, hormones, hemoglobin and membrane proteins have in common? All are proteins with a specific shape that determines their function. Enzymes Hormone Hemoglobin Antibodies
4
What determines a protein’s Shape?
A protein’s shape is determined by its sequence of amino acids.
5
What happens after translation of the genetic code?
Proteins do not remain as single strands of amino acids, rather the amino acids chain gets folded into a specific shape. This shape is determined by the ORDER of the amino acids in the chain.
6
Protein Shape: The DNA base sequence (order) determines
the sequence of amino acids. 2) The sequence (order) of amino acids in a protein determine its shape. 3) The shape of a protein determines its activity.
7
Transcription & Translation:
The processes of transcription and translation, lead to the final shape of a protein. Therefore it is the genetic code: DNA base sequence that ultimately determine a protein’s sequence of amino acids. A – T U C – G G Tryptophan C – G G
8
Mutations Mutations (changes in the genetic code) that can lead to changes in the amino acid sequence and ultimately to the overall shape of the protein. Why?
9
What causes mutations errors in DNA replication?
Chemicals UV Radiation X-Ray radiation
10
It changes the amino acids sequence which determines protein shape
Mutated Proteins It changes the amino acids sequence which determines protein shape
11
How does a mutated protein affect a cell?
The mutated protein may have a different shape and disrupt its normal activity.
12
Types of Mutation Substitution Deletion Insertion Inversion
Original DNA Strand
13
Copy the Normal DNA Strand:
DNA CCT CAA GAT GCG GGA GUU CUA CGC RNA AA Sequence Gly – Val – Leu - Arg
14
Substitution Substitution – One nitrogenous base is substituted for another. DNA CCC CAA GAT GCG RNA GGG GUU CUA CGC Amino Gly - Val - Leu - Arg acid DNA CCT CAA GAT GCG
15
Deletion One nitrogenous base is deleted (removed). DNA CTC AAG ATG CG
mRNA GAG UUC UAC GC Amino Glu - Ala - Tyr- acid DNA CCT CAA GAT GCG
16
Insertion (Addition) Insertion – Extra nitrogenous bases are added to the genetic code. DNA CCT CTA AGA TGC G mRNA GGA GAU UCU ACG C Amino Gly - Asp - Ser - Thr - acid DNA CCT CAA GAT GCG
17
Inversion Inversion – The genetic code is inverted or reversed.
DNA CCT CAA TAG GCG mRNA GGA GUU AUC CGC Amino Gly - Val – Iso - Arg acid DNA CCT CAA GAT GCG
18
Sickle Cell Anemia
19
Point mutation A change in ONE nitrogenous base, the overall number of bases stays the same (Substitution or Inversion)
20
Frame shift mutation A change in the number of overall nitrogenous bases in the genetic code (Addition or Deletion)
21
What type of mutation is it?
