Study Notes
Nucleic Acids and Protein Synthesis
- DNA serves as a template for the synthesis of protein molecules
Structure of DNA
- The four bases of DNA are Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine (C), and Thymine (T)
Protein Synthesis
- The sequence of nucleotides in DNA determines the order of amino acids that compose a protein
RNA Function
- RNA plays a crucial role in protein synthesis, acting as a messenger between DNA and the ribosome
Protein Function
- Proteins perform a wide range of functions in the body, including structural, enzymatic, and hormonal roles
