The Genetic Code and Protein Synthesis

Genetic code and protein synthesis The genetic code is an organic base sequence on a DNA duplex. These foundations are arranged in a specific order to encode eye color, hair color, height. Everyone has a separate genetic code, and the two are not identical. DNA is semi-conservatively replicated. Both of these two chains are separated by an enzyme called helicase, which is a template for new DNA. Each chain then attracts a new organic base such as an already existing organic base.

Genetic code An important element of a protein molecule is how amino acids are related. The amino acid sequence determined by DNA's genetic code distinguishes one protein from another. The genetic code consists of a nitrogen-containing base sequence in DNA. How nitrogen-containing base codes are translated into amino acid sequences in proteins is the basis of protein synthesis. In order to carry out protein synthesis, several essential substances must be present. One is the supply of 20 amino acids that make up most proteins. Another important factor is a series of enzymes working in this process. Other nucleic acids called DNA and ribonucleic acid (RNA) are also essential. RNA carries instructions from nuclear DNA to the cytoplasm and synthesizes proteins in the cytoplasm. RNA is similar to DNA with three exceptions. First, the carbohydrate in the RNA is ribose, not deoxyribose. Second, RNA nucleotides contain pyrimidine uracil instead of thymine.

Transcription transcription is one of the first steps in the entire process of protein synthesis. In transcription, the mRNA strand is synthesized using DNA's genetic code. RNA polymerase binds to the region of the DNA molecule in the duplex (the other strands remain unused). The enzyme moves along the DNA strand, selects complementary bases from available nucleotides and places them within the mRNA molecule according to the principle of complementary base pairing (Figure 1). The mRNA strand is extended until it receives a stop code

Protein synthesis Protein synthesis is a process in which DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) codes for essential proteins such as enzymes and hormones. Proteins are long chain molecules called amino acids. Different proteins are prepared by using different sequences and different numbers of amino acids. The smallest protein consists of 50 amino acids and the largest protein is about 3000 amino acids in length.
