Study Notes
Codons and Amino Acids
- The genetic code uses nucleotide sequences to specify amino acids.
- Four different nucleotides (A, C, G, T) are used.
- Twenty different amino acids are needed.
- Three nucleotides (a triplet) are needed to specify each amino acid.
- This arrangement (a triplet code) produces enough combinations (4 x 4 x 4) to code for all 20 amino acids.
Introns and Exons
- DNA contains coding regions (exons) and non-coding regions (introns).
- Introns are removed from the initial mRNA transcript.
- The remaining exons are joined together forming the mature mRNA.
- This process is called splicing.
Genetic Code Translation
- The genetic code translates mRNA into amino acid sequences forming proteins.
- The mRNA sequence is read in triplets (codons).
- Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid.
