Protein

2

DNA

? DNA contains genes, sequences of nucleotide bases

? These Genes code for polypeptides (proteins)

? Proteins are used to build cells and do much of the work inside cells

3

Genes & Proteins

Proteins are made of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds

4

Goals of Protein Synthesis! (PS)

Take DNA and convert it (change it) into RNA (there are different types of RNA)

Then use that RNA to create YOUR specific Proteins!

So the DNA tells the cell which amino acids to Put together to make YOUR proteins!
