Resource summary
2.7 DNA Replication, Transcription and Translation
DNA Replication
Nature of Science
Evidence for scientific theories
Meselson and Stahl
Semi-conservative replication of DNA
Complementary base pairing
Helicase
Unwinds the double helix and separates the two strands by breaking H bonds
DNA Polymerase
Links nucleotides together to form a new strand, using pre-existing strand as a template
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
Use of Taq DNA polymerase to produce multiple copies of DNA rapidly
Transcription
Synthesis of mRNA copied from the DNA base sequences by RNA polymerase
Translation
Synthesis of polypetides on ribosomes
The amino acids sequence of polypeptides is determined by mRNA according to the genetic code
Codons of three bases on mRNA correspond to one amino acid in a polypeptide
Translation depends on complementary base pairing between codons on mRNA and anticodons on tRNA
Use a table of the genetic code to deduce which codon corresponds to which amino acid
Deducing the DNA base sequence for the mRNA strand
Aim 8
Ethical implications in altering the genome of an organism in order to produce proteins for medical use in humans
Production of human insulin in bacteria as an example of the universal versatility of the genetic code allowing gene transfer between species
