Transcription
|
3.5.1 |
Compare the structure of RNA and DNA.
|
|
3.5.2 |
Outline DNA transcription in terms of the formation of an RNA
strand complementary to the DNA strand by RNA
polymerase.
|
|
7.3.1 |
State that transcription is carried out in a 5' to 3' direction.
|
|
7.3.2 |
Distinguish between the sense and antisense strands
of DNA.
|
|
7.3.3 |
Explain the process of transcription in prokaryotes, including
the role of the promoter region, RNA polymerase,
nucleoside triphosphates and the terminator.
|
RNA
Processing
|
7.1.5 |
State that eukaryotic genes can contain exons and introns.
|
|
7.3.4 |
State that eukaryotic RNA needs the removal of introns to form
mature mRNA.
|
Translation
|
3.5.3 |
Describe the genetic code in terms of codons composed of triplets
of bases.
|
|
3.5.4 |
Explain the process of translation, leading to polypeptide
formation.
|
|
3.5.5 |
Discuss the relationship between one gene and one polypeptide.
|
|
7.4.1 |
Explain that each tRNA molecule is recognized by a tRNA-activating
enzyme that binds a specific amino acid to the
tRNA, using ATP for energy.
|
|
7.4.2 |
Outline the structure of ribosomes, including protein and RNA
composition, large and small subunits, three
tRNA binding sites and mRNA binding sites.
|
|
7.4.3 |
State that translation consists of initiation, elongation,
translocation and termination.
|
|
7.4.4 |
State that translation occurs in a 5' to 3' direction.
|
|
7.4.6 |
Explain the process of translation, including ribosomes,
polysomes, start codons and stop codons.
|
|
7.4.7 |
State that free ribosomes synthesize proteins for use primarily
within the cell, and that bound ribosomes
synthesize proteins primarily for secretion or
for lysosomes.
