Protein Synthesis
Storyboard Text
- I got an order for customer RNA 03456 for new amino acids! Who ordered new amino acids? This was ordered from RNA 0123.
- Once the last amino acid has been added, the chain folds into a complex 3D shape to form the PROTEIN.
- I am customer RNA 03456! Yes thank you RNA 0123!
- As each 3 bases are read, a transfer RNA delivers the corresponding amino acids. This is finally added to the growing amino chain of amino acids.
- Since we know how replication of DNA works and the step of protein synthesis, why is the gene product relevant in the cell?
- Products can be modified by attaching groups such as phosphate via an enzyme to specific amino acids in the primary sequence.
- Proteins can also be used to move molecules in the cell to where they are needed, these are called motor proteins. Other proteins help the cell to perform regulatory functions, such as influences of development or metabolism (through expression of the gene)
- Hi, I am a motor protein. I resemble a water hose (a tube). and my responsibility is active transport of most proteins and/or vesicles in cytoplasm and many more
