Ribosome
RNA Structure
•RNA is made like DNA
•Sugar-phosphate backbone
•-OH at the #2 C on the ribose, vs. deoxyribose in
DNA
•U substitutes for T
•Can self-associate, just like DNA
•Unlike DNA, RNA is single stranded
RNA Structure
•Where it self-associates, U pairs with A; G with C
•Multiple types:
•mRNA: Messenger RNA: carries information
•tRNA: Transfer RNA: carries a.a.
•One unique tRNA for each a.a.
•rRNA: most prevalent type, in ribosome
3 bases on
mRNA
are called a
___________
Codon
3 bases on
tRNA
are called an
_________
Anti-codon

What a.a. is this?
The codon
AUG
=amino acid

A change
in the
DNA
Mutation
Chromosomal
Mutations
Deletion or addition of
an additional segment
• Breakage
• Effects:– very serious,
often lethal
•
Point
Mutations
Point Mutations
Affect only 1
amino acid
Remember to
Look over your
DNA fingerprint
information
• Deletion or addition of an additional segment
• Breakage
• Effects: 1 to multiple proteins lost – very serious,
often lethal
