Mechanism of Protein Synthesis
Once the structure of DNA became known, scientists could reconstruct the events by which the cell makes proteins. DNA carries the genetic code, the cell's "master plan" for protein synthesis. RNA copies this code and brings together the amino acids that form the proteins.

27. Protein synthesis begins in the figure on the right, when a strand of (A) __________________unravels. The code for producing a protein is carried in the sequence of the (B) ________________ in the DNA. Each group of three (B's) forms a(n) _____________________, which represents a particular amino acid. One of the unwound strands of DNA forms a complementary strand called (C) ______________________. This process is called _________________________. It takes place in the _________________ of all cells.
In the figure on the right, (C) has moved into the ________________________, where it attaches to a (D) ____________________. A phase of protein synthesis called ______________________ then begins. A t-shaped molecule of (E) ________________________ approaches the (D) ribosome. At one end of this molecule are three nitrogenous bases known as an (F) _______________________. At the (D)ribosome, each (F) anti-codon aligns with its complementary base pair on the (C). This occurs according to the base pairing rule. At the other end of (E), an (G) _______________________is attached. As the (D) moves along the strand of (C), new (E's) are attached. This brings the (G's) close to each other. The (G's) are joined by bonds, and the resulting strand is a __________________________.
Mutations:
28. Which type of mutation involves a whole extra chromosome? __________________________
29. What do we call a mutation that only affects the formation of one protein? _____________________
The following is the base sequence on the template strand of a DNA molecule:

T A C G C C A G T G G T T C G C A C
30. Give the base sequence of the strand of mRNA read from the original template DNA strand.
A U G CGG
31. What protein would this mRNA code for? (Use the mRNA to figure out the amino acids)
32. If the sixth nucleotide in the original DNA strand were changed from C to T, the DNA strand would be:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
T A C G C C A G T G G T T C G C A C
