New cards

DNA

  • Deoxyribonucleic acid

  • 4 nitrogenous bases: Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine

  • Phosphate backbone

  • Double helix

  • Doesn’t leave the nucleus

2
New cards

RNA

  • Ribonucleic Acid

  • Single Strand

  • Thymine is replaced by URACIL

  • A-U C-G

3
New cards

Transcription

  • Copy DNA→ RNA

  • Nucleus

4
New cards

Translation

  • mRNA → proteins

  • Ribosome

    • Ribosomes read the code on the mRNA and choose the amino acids that best fit

5
New cards

Animo Acids

  • 20 amino acids

  • Monomers of proteins
