What makes up proteins?
amino acidsAmino acids make up proteins. It happened in cytoplasm of the cell where mRNA, ribosomes, tRNA work together to synthesize proteins. The message for the proteins sequence is coded in DNA.
How is the protein produced by translating the mRNA into its amino acid sequence?
Translation
What organells makes proteins?
ribosomesProteins are made in ribosomes. mRNA transcribed from DNA carries the message of protein sequences. In ribosome mRNA interact with tRNAs to form polypeptides from amino acids.ribosomes translate proteins from amino acids. The message needed for the synthesis is coded in mRNA. mRNA is transcribed from DNA for this and exported to cytosol.
What is a possible mRNA sequence of the amino acid valine?
GUU, GUC, GUA, GUG
How did scientist find that human genes that make insulin?
Scientists used the amino acid code to find the DNA base sequence,i.e. they worked backwards from mRNA to DNA.They figured out the DNA sequence from the amino acid sequence- APEXthey figured out the dna sequence from the amino acid sequence
What protein sequence is coded by the code UAG?
The sequence UAG is the mRNA codon that means "stop" and does not code for an amino acid.
The RNA species that carries the coded message specifying the sequence of amino acids in the protein to be made from the nuclueus to the cytoplasm is?
mRNA
What is the type of RNA that carries the coded message which specifies the sequence of amino acids that will form the protein called?
mRNA (messenger RNA)
What is the amino acid sequence that is coded for the mRNA sequence AUG-ACG-AAA-AGA-AGG-GGA-GCC-GCU-UCC-UAA?
The amino acid sequence is: UUU-UCU-UCC-CCU-CGG-CGA-AGG-AUU.
What are codon and anticodons?
Codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on mRNA. Anti codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on tRNA.The codons are for the traslation of mRNa to an amino acid sequence by using ribosomes.
What is the relationship between the linear sequence of codons on mRNA and the linear sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide?
The linear sequence of codons on mRNA determines the linear sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide.
List the amino acids in the order they would appear in the polypeptide coded for by the mRNA?
list the amino acids the way they would appear in the polypeptides coded for by the mRNA
What is directly responsible for the sequence of amino acids in a protein?
The sequence of codons in mRNA, or messenger RNA, is most directly responsible for the sequence of amino acids in a protein. Each codon is comprised of 3 nucleotides.
Do you use the DNA the mRNA to determine the amino acid?
mRNA has the codon sequence that exactly correspond to the amino acid sequence. The DNA has two strands. Though one of the strands (coding strand) carries the same information as on the mRNA, it contains unspliced introns that will mess up the amino acid sequence.
What determines the amino acid sequence in a protein?
The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the mRNA, and this is determined by the sequence of nucleotide bases in the DNA.
What is converting the info on the mRNA into a sequence of amino acids that make up a protein?
First we convert the nucleic acid into a messenger RNA, mRNA, by the process of transcription. Then, in the ribosome, we convert this mRNA unto a polypeptide ( the amino acid sequence ) by the process of translation.
Coverting mrna into a sequence of amino acids that make up protein is called what?
Converting messenger RNA, mRNA into a sequence of amino acids that make up protein is called translation.
