Describe the steps of Transcription, and describe the steps of Translation
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The various steps in the transcription and translation process of protein synthesis are described below.

Explanation:

Proteins (made up of amino acids) have an important role in the various functioning process of an organism. Protein synthesis which takes place in the cells of an organism consists of two major processes: transcription (DNA to RNA) and translation (RNA to protein).

Transcription: It is the first process in protein synthesis which occurs in the cell nucleus where a single-stranded messenger RNA (mRNA) is created using a DNA strand and the genetic instructions in DNA are transferred to this mRNA. The steps in transcription are initiation, elongation, and termination. The beginning process known as initiation occurs when an enzyme RNA polymerase binds to a promoter (region of a gene) and the DNA unwinds. One of the DNA strands acts as a template and the enzyme reads the bases in the template DNA strand.

The next step is elongation, where the RNA polymerase builds a strand of mRNA by the addition of nucleotides using complementary base pairs. Here, adenine (A) in the DNA binds to uracil (U) in the RNA. Termination is the last step in which the transcription process ends when the RNA polymerase comes across a termination sequence in the gene. Thus, the completed single-stranded mRNA detaches from DNA.  

Translation: It is the second process in protein synthesis which occurs in the ribosome of the cell where the genetic information in mRNA is used to create a protein from amino acids. A triplet of nucleotides is called a codon and they define amino acids. There are 64 possible codons and the codon, AUG acts as the start codon which initiates translation in addition to specifying the amino acid methionine. In the initiation step, the first amino acid in the polypeptide chain is brought by transfer RNAs (tRNAs) to bind to the start codon of mRNA. During elongation, each type of tRNAs in the cytoplasm bound to a specific codon on the mRNA template and adds the corresponding amino acid to the polypeptide chain. Stop codons (UAA, UAG, or UGA) terminate protein synthesis and release the polypeptide.

17. Which of the following statements are accurate?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

A. Neurotransmitters can act as ligands.

B. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter. It can bind to an acetylcholine receptor on the surface of a cell. If this receptor is also a sodium channel, we would call acteylcholine a ligand and its receptor a ligand gated receptor.

Explanation:

Answer:

A. Neurotransmitters can act as ligands.

B. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter. It can bind to an acetylcholine receptor on the surface of a cell. If this receptor is also a sodium channel, we would call acteylcholine a ligand and its receptor a ligand gated receptor.

Explanation:

Neurotransmitter are chemicals that transfer signals between neurons and nerve cells. They control some physical and physiologocal activity such as appetite, food.

Acetycoline is an example of neurotransmitter and it is located in the parasympathetic nervous system. Ligand are substance that form complexes with biomolecule. They serve biological purpose with this biomolecule.

This ligand binds to target site. Neurotransmitter act as ligand by binding to receptor in the postsynaptic neuron and acetycoline a type of neurotransmitter can also serve as ligand they bind to acetycoline receptor on cell surface.
