Before a cell can create amino acids, it must transfer the DNA into RNA. The cell can then use RNA to create the amino acids. The call reads RNA in 3-letter sections, called codons. Each amino acid has a corresponding anti-codon. The cell matches these codes up and can then add the correct amino acid to the growing protein.

Amino acids is what gives us traits from your parents?

Proteins determine how a gene is expressed. Proteins are composed of amino acids that are synthesized (put together) by RNA, and RNA is made from DNA. DNA is what you inherit from your parents--very basically, your genes are sections of DNA that code for certain proteins (that are composed of amino acids).

Proteins are a type of molecule synthesized from amino acids in cells.


Some amino acids are essential because lipids cannot be synthesized if they are not present?

Actually, amino acids are not involved in lipid synthesis. Essential amino acids are important for protein synthesis and various metabolic functions in the body. Lipids are synthesized from different building blocks, such as fatty acids and glycerol.


What type of amino acids are all proteins are composed of?

Proteins are composed of 20 different amino acids. These amino acids can be classified into two main categories: essential amino acids, which must be obtained from the diet, and nonessential amino acids, which can be synthesized by the body.


What molecule is read to make amino acids?

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is the molecule that carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, where it is translated to build proteins such as amino acids. The ribosome reads the codons on the mRNA to determine the sequence of amino acids in the protein being synthesized.


Are there more than 20 amino acids in existence?

Yes, there are more than 20 amino acids in existence. While there are 20 standard amino acids that are commonly found in proteins, there are also non-standard amino acids that occur naturally or can be synthesized.


The type of reaction by which proteins are synthesized?

Proteins are synthesized through a process called translation, where the messenger RNA (mRNA) is read by ribosomes to assemble amino acids into a polypeptide chain according to the genetic code. This process occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
