A nucleoside
• is a combination of a sugar and base
• has a base linked by a glycosidic bond to C1′ of a sugar
(ribose or deoxyribose)
• is named by changing the base ending to -osine for purines
and -idine for pyrimidines

A nucleotide
• is formed when the phosphate group on C5′ in the
nucleoside group bonds to −OH on C5′ of a ribose or
deoxyribose sugar

Naming Nucleosides and Nucleotides
12
Nucleosides
• that contain a purine end with osine
• that contain a pyrimidine end with idine
• of DNA add deoxy to the beginning of their name
Corresponding nucleotides in RNA and DNA are named by
adding -5'-monophosphate.
Abbreviations for bases A, G, C, U, and T are often used in
respective nucleosides and nucleotides.

Protein Synthesis

Initiation of Protein Synthesis
17
For the initiation of protein synthesis,
• an mRNA attaches to a ribosome
• the start codon (AUG) in mRNA forms hydrogen bonds to
methionine on tRNA
• the second codon attaches to a tRNA with the next
amino acid
• a peptide bond forms between the adjacent amino acids at the
first and second codons
During chain elongation, the ribosome moves along the mRNA
from codon to codon, attaching new amino acids to the growing
polypeptide chain.

Translocation
19
Once the peptide bond is formed, the initial tRNA detaches from
the ribosome, which shifts to the next available codon, a process
called translocation.
During translocation,
• the first tRNA detaches from the ribosome
• the ribosome shifts to the adjacent codon on the mRNA
• a new tRNA/amino acid attaches to the open binding site
• a peptide bond forms and that tRNA detaches
• the ribosome shifts down the mRNA to read the next codon

Termination
22
In the termination step,
• all the amino acids are linked
• the ribosome reaches a “stop” codon: UGA, UAA, or UAG
• there is no tRNA with an anticodon for the “stop” codons
• the polypeptide detaches from the ribosome
Chemistry: An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry, Eleventh Edition
Copyright © 2012 by Pearson Education, Inc.
Termination
23
Once the polypeptide is released,
• the R groups of the amino acids in the new polypeptide can
form hydrogen bonds to give the secondary structures of α
helices, β-pleated sheets, or triple helices
• chains form cross-links such as salt bridges and disulfide
bonds to produce tertiary and quaternary structures, which
makes it a biologically active protein

17.6 Genetic Mutations
Chemistry: An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry, Eleventh Edition
Copyright © 2012 by Pearson Education, Inc.
Mutations
33
A mutation, or change in the nucleotide sequence of
DNA, can
• result from mutagens such as radiation and chemicals
• produce one or more incorrect codons in mRNA
• produce a protein containing one or more incorrect
amino acids
• produce defective proteins and enzymes
• cause genetic diseases

Types of Mutations
34
•
•
•
•
A substitution or point mutation is the replacement of
one base in the template strand of DNA with another.
If a substitution or point mutation changes the nucleotide, a
different amino acid may be inserted into the polypeptide.
If this produces no change in the amino acid sequence, it is
called a silent mutation.
A frameshift mutation is the insertion of a single
nucleotide into the sequence resulting in a change to all
subsequent codons, leading to a new amino acid sequence.

Normal DNA and Protein Synthesis
35
The normal DNA
sequence produces a
mRNA that provides
instructions for the
correct series of amino
acids in a protein.

Mutation: Substitution
36
Substitution
• of a base in DNA
changes a codon in
the mRNA
• of a different codon
leads to the placement
of an incorrect amino
acid in the polypeptide
Chemistry: An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry, Eleventh Edition
Copyright © 2012 by Pearson Education, Inc.
Frameshift Mutation
37
In a frameshift mutation,
• an extra base adds to or
is deleted from the
normal DNA sequence
• all the codons in
mRNA and amino acids
are incorrect from the
base change
Chemistry: An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry, Eleventh Edition
Copyright © 2012 by Pearson Education, Inc.
Effect of Mutations
38
When a mutation causes a change in the amino acid sequence
the structure of the resulting protein may be severely altered,
causing loss of its biological activity.
Altered enzymes cannot catalyze reactions, and possible toxins
may accumulate in the body and may be lethal.
When this condition is hereditary, it is called a genetic disease.

In reverse transcription,
• a retrovirus, which contains viral RNA but no viral
DNA, enters a cell
• the viral RNA uses reverse transcriptase to produce a
viral DNA strand
• the viral DNA strand forms a complementary DNA
strand
• the new DNA uses the nucleotides and enzymes in the
host cell to synthesize new virus particles

Treatment for AIDS is based on attacking HIV-1 at different points
in its life cycle, such as prevention of reverse transcription of the
viral DNA and protein synthesis.
For example, AZT, similar to thymidine, mimics the structures of
the nucleosides used for DNA synthesis, which inhibit the reverse
transcriptase enzyme.
Lexiva is a protease inhibitor that prevents protein synthesis used
by viruses to make more copies.
