CYTOGENETICS LECTURE - Med238 CHAPTER 3: 5. RNA primase - enzymes that CENTRAL DOGMA synthesizes short RNA sequences (primers), serves as starting point of the - systematic flow of genetic materials replication from one generation to another ➔ Leading strand - is always - important for gene expression synthesized / replicates (transcription, translation) ➔ Lagging strand - short segments - Francis Crick - first identify DNA (Okazaki segments) Nucleotides - building blocks of DNA ➔ Nicks - gap/breaks ➔ composed of sugar, nitrogen 6. DNA Polymerase III - catalyzes the base, phosphate group formation of anew phosphodiester linkage between the nucleotide and growing strand; joins the newly attached nucleotides to create one continuous strand in the 5’ - 3’ direction - elongates the DNA strands by adding new ribonucleotides ❖ 5 prime - 3 prime direction of synthesizing Transcription - DNA as template for ❖ 3 prime - 5 prime direction of RNA, and DNA is read in the nucleus reading ➔ produces mRNA - contain ❖ 3 prime - 5 prime exonuclease - codons (3 nucleotides bases mismatch nucleotides that code for particular amino acid) 7. DNA Polymerase I - remove excess Translation - process which RNA is ribonucleotides using 5’ - 3’ converted into amino acid in the exonuclease and fill the gaps ribosomes 8. DNA Ligase - seal the nick - produces proteins - codons will pair with anti codons (UGA, UAG, UAA) carried by DNA exonuclease activity; tRNA polymerase I remove RNA primers and replaces w’ DNA DNA repair function Summary of DNA replication polymerase II 1. origin of replication recognize by orc DNA main enzyme that adds (origin replication complex) polymerase III nucleotides in the 5’ - 3’ 2. Helicase (unwinding of double strand by direction ATP) Templates - 2 strands of the DNA from unwinding 3. Single stranded binding protein maintain the separation of strand 4. Topoisomerase - relive torsional strain MELISA S.

Messenger contain a genetic RNA information that removes TRANSCRIPTION (Formation of (mRNA) introns hnRNA) A portion of DNA unwinds by RNA 3. Small polymerase nuclear RNA Free nulceotides aligns the strand (snRNA) exposed and form new base pairs U rather than T aligns with A in 4. Ribosomal most abundant RNA base pairing process RNA (rRNA) - use for protein RNA polymerase links the synthesis ribonucleotide to the growing hnRNA molecule 5. Transfer serves as adaptor Ends when RNA polymerase RNA (tRNA) molecules that converts encounters the stop signal mRNA to protein RNA polymerase and hnRNA - Clover leaf shape released - At the 3 prime end, DNA rewinds to reform the original amino acid is double helix attached - Loop opposite the open end (anticodon POST-TRANSCRIPTION (Formation loop), contains of mRNA) anticodon - Conversion of hnRNA to mRNA - Genes contains 2 segments: Activation of tRNA: ❖ Exons - contains codes for 1. An amino acid genetic information (DNA interacts with an segments that help express a activator molecule to genetic message) form a highly ❖ Introns - portion that do not energetic complex convey genetic information 2. The complex reacts (DNA segments that interrup a with tRNA to genetic message) produce an activated tRNA POST-TRANSCRIPTION (Splicing) molecule Process of removing introns from hnRNA molecule and joining the Activated tRNA - tRNA remaining exons together to form a that has an amino acid mRNA molecule covalently bonded to it at Involves snRNA which always its 3’ end through an complexed with snRNP ester linkage Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Particle - complex formed from snRNA molecule and several proteins MELISA S.

POST-TRANSLATIONAL PROCESSING Post translational modification Gives the protein final form to be functional APOPTOSIS - programmed cell death - normal process where cell number is adjusted and controlled TRANSLATION - Remove extra tissue and eliminate Process by which mRNA codons are excess cells (damaged cells, virus cells, deciphered and a particular protein potential cancer cell) molecule is synthesized Process by which the genetic message is decoded and used to make protein’every cell contains 20 or more different tRNA, each designed to carry a specific amino acid ANTICODON - 3 nucleotide sequence on a tRNA CELL STRUCTURES AND ITS molecule that is complementary to a codon on a mRNA molecule (UGA, FUNCTIONS UAG, UAA) Cells - basic unit of the human body - Robert Hooke - first scientist that INITIATION discovered cell (plant cell), he mRNA attaches to the surface of a observed cell walls in a cork tissue small ribosomal subunit such that its - 30 trillion Human cells (80% red blood first codon, which is always the cells - most abundant cells in the body) (neurons - 100 billion the actual value is MELISA S.
