Concept Map for DNA and Protein Synthesis 13
Types of RNA
Translation
Uses mRNA formed during
What are the chemical
Central Dogma
differences between RNA and
DNA
Flow of genetic information
DNA to RNA to protein
Proteins carry out specific
functions in body, form
enzymes, responsible for visual
differences (phenotypes)
Gene holds the information for
making a specific protein?
How are genes expressed?
Protein
•Amino acids are monomers
(20 AAs) – chain of AAs is a
polypeptide
•Bond between amino acids
called peptide bond
•After protein is formed it is
shaped and folded in order to
carry out a specific function
tRNA-has anticodons on one
end and amino acids on other
mRNA-has codons (triplet
code) and uses U instead of T.
rRNA – ribosome made of
RNA and protein, large and
small subunits

Mutations
•Two general types of
mutations
•What are muatgens - some
examples
•Identify point and frameshift
mutations
•Identify types of chromosomal
mutations
transcription
Where does translation
happen within the cell?
How does translation differ
from transcription
Three types of RNA come
together
Ribosome is protein
factory that combines
mRNA and tRNA
Translate genetic code
Identify amino acids
Transcription
•DNA to mRNA
•Enzyme is RNA polymerase
•Occurs in the nucleus
•Way for DNA to send genetic
codes
•mRNA is processed before
leaving nucleus
•What is the difference
between introns/exons?
•5’ cap and poly A tail
•Transcribe genetic code
