notes on transcription + translation

TermDefinition
polypeptide string of amino acids
proteins made up of amino acids; assembled on a ribosome
DNA replication DNA double helix unwinds, becomes single-stranded, new strand forms using A-T, C-G, used to prepare for cell division, whole genome copied or replicated
DNA double stranded, deoxyribose sugar, bases = C, G, A, T
RNA single stranded, ribose sugar, bases = C, G, A, U
transcription RNA forms base pairs with DNA
primary transcript length of RNA that results from the process of transcription
mRNA type of RNA that encodes information for the synthesis of proteins and carries it to a ribosome from the nucleus
RNA polymerase complex of enzymes with 2 functions, unwind DNA sequence and produce primary transcript by stringing together the chain of RNA nucleotides
exons coding regions
introns non-coding regions
translation second stage of protein production; mRNA on a ribosome; tRNA brings amino acids to the ribosome
tRNA transfer RNA; bound to 1 end anticodon on the other end complements mRNA codon
tRNA function amino acids must be in the correct order for the protein to function correctly; tRNA lines up amino acids using mRNA code

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
