C785 Biochemistry Review Module 1 2020 – Western Governors University Biochemistry Review Module 1 DNA- 1. Located in nucleus 2. Double helix 3. Nucleic acid 4. Adenine/Guanine/Cytosine/Thymine 5. A-T/C-G pairing 6. Duplicates itself and passes on to generation to generation 7. Contains 46 chromosomes (23 pairs from mother and father) 8. Stores and transmits-chemicals and traits RNA- 1. Carries important info from DNA to the body (Transcription) 2. Used to make proteins (Translation) 3. Single stranded 4. 3 types of RNA (mRNA- messenger contains codons, rRNA-ribosomal contains 2 subunits and tRNA- transfer amino acid with end codon) 5. mRNA- Adenine/Guanine/Cytosine/Uracil 6. A-U/C-G pairing Central Dogma- replication of DNA process= DNA- transcription- RNA- translation- Protein Steps of DNA replication- 1. DNA must be separated 2. New DNA synthesized by a protein called DNA polymerase • DNA polymerase takes the individual nucleotides and matches them up to the parental sequences to ensure a correct pair. • DNA polymerase does not start synthesis of a new strand, it must bind with a RNA primer • RNA primer is synthesized by RNA polymerase
