For this assignment, you will write an essay describing the production of protein molecules through transcription and translation. Your essay should include discussions of the following: ■DNA ■mRNA ■RNA polymerase ■base pairing ■transcription ■translation ■tRNA ■rRNA ■ribosomes ■amino acids ■protein Any ideas?

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Are you asking to write your essay for you? Lol.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i HATE essays... sorry wiffey!! xD <3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No i just dont know what to put in it lol

OpenStudy (abb0t):

well, start by introducing the fact that DNA is our genetic information. talk about how DNA is copied (transcribed) as mRNA by RNA polymerase. How it's trascribed from 5'->3' base pairing...etc

ah.. Great thanks :D

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Ribosomes have two subunits, prokaryotes are 80s+30s while I think eukaruotes are 70 + 20s? (don't quote me on that) and are the machines that translate (read) the mRNA sequence. m= messenger t = transfer r = ribosomal etc.,

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Proteins are the result of translation consisting of huge chains of amino acids. Coded by the genetic thingamabob AUG = starting code which codes for MET (methionine) and there are 3 stop codons. etc.,

OpenStudy (frostbite):

funny they don't choose just to say the central dogma of molecular biology. Kinda relevant...

OpenStudy (abb0t):

That's because she basically asked for an essay ABOUT the central dogma of molecular biology.

<~~~ confused O.o

OpenStudy (frostbite):

Yea well... I more wanted to adress the key word to have one word for the full theory.
