Protein Synthesis Extra Credit

The document provides instructions for students to practice protein synthesis by copying a DNA message, transcribing it to mRNA, matching tRNA codons to the mRNA triplets, looking up the tRNA codons to find the corresponding amino acids, and recording the amino acids to decode the message spelled out in the protein. The document includes space for students to complete the activity for multiple DNA messages.

SAY IT WITH DNA: PROTEIN SYNTHESIS PRACTICE

Directions:
1. Copy the DNA message in the space below
2. Build the mRNA molecule, matching the RNA nucleotides to the DNA nucleotides properly, letter by letter.
3. Figure which tRNA codons that match each mRNA triplet.
4. Look up each tRNA codon in the tRNA Dictionary and the corresponding symbol and amino acid abbreviation for that codon. Record the
one letter symbol and its amino acid below each codon. “Spc” = “space” The letters should spell out a message.
