  • Helicase Single Strand Binding Proteins: Dna Replication

    The document summarizes DNA replication and RNA transcription and translation. During DNA replication, helicase unwinds DNA at the origin of replication, single-stranded binding proteins attach to separate strands, and leading and lagging strands are formed with the help of RNA primase, DNA polymerase III, DNA polymerase I, and DNA ligase. This produces two identical DNA molecules. During transcription, RNA polymerase unwinds DNA and assembles complementary base pairings to produce mRNA, which exits the nucleus into the cytoplasm. During translation, ribosomes bind to mRNA and use its codons to draw specific tRNAs, forming peptide bonds between amino acids until a stop codon is reached to produce a protein.

    DNA REPLICATION -

    At the origin of replication,


    HELICASE unwinds the
    hydrogen bonds and
    separates DNA in half.
    SINGLE STRAND BINDING
    PROTEINS attach to the
    halves and keeps the DNA
    strands separated.
    Leading and Lagging strands
    are formed.
    RNA PRIMASE adds the
    primer to both strands.
    DNA POLYMERASE III adds
    the nucleotides (5’ to 3’)
    DNA POLYMERASE I replace
    primer.
    DNA LIGASE stitches the
    gaps between okazaki
    fragments.
    Termination: 2 DNA
    molecules are produced.
    RNA TRANSCRIPTION &TRANSLATION

    RNA POLYMERASE unwinds


    the DNA
    RNA POLYMERASE assembles
    the complementary base
    pairings
    mRNA separates from the
    DNA and the DNA is zipped up
    by the RNA POLYMERASE
    mRNA exits nucleus and
    moves to cytoplasm
    RIBOSOMES binds to the
    mRNA, reads mRNA by codon
    and draws tRNA with specific
    anti-codon
    Peptide bond is formed
    between amino acids
    attached to tRNA
    -AA is the building blocks of
    protein
    tRNA brings amino acid until
    ‘stop’ codon is reached.
