Central Dogma: DNA to RNA to Protein

THE CENTRAL

DOGMA OF

BIOLOGY

THE ORGANELLES

THE CENTRAL DOGMA

DNA is the code of life It is stored in the nucleus

RNA transcribes the code and takes it out of the nucleus Transcription in the nucleus

The cell translates the code to make proteins Translation happens at the ribosome

These proteins then turn into traits – blue eyes, brown hair, big head

WHAT IS RNA?

RNA DNA

Single-Stranded Double-Stranded Uracil as a base Thymine as a base Ribose sugar Deoxyribose sugar In nucleus and In nucleus ribosomes

WHAT DOES OUR BODY DO WITH PROTEINS?

Proteins are responsible for nearly every job of cellular life cell shape inner organization, product manufacture waste cleanup, routine maintenance. Proteins also receive signals from outside

the cell and mobilize intracellular response

ASSIGNMENT: CHNOPS

Transcribe and translate from DNA to RNA to protein
