    During translation, Ribosomal RNA combines with proteins to form a ribosome. tRNA (transfer RNA) brings individual amino acids to the ribosome, mRNA binds the ribosome. 3 nucleotides at a time equal 1 codon or an amino acid. Therefore the resulting amino acid sequence from the previous mRNA is AUG, GGA, AAU, CAU, CGG, UGA = Methionine, Glycine, Asparagine, Hisitdine, Proline, Stop. The first codon of the sequence (AUG), is the start of the sequence. The significance of this codon is that it symbolizes where the mRNA should start copying. The last codon of the sequence (UGA) is the end of the sequence or mostly known as "Stop". This symbolizes where the mRNA should stop copying.…

    DNA is a structure of specific molecules and a complex mixture of chemicals. DNA is a nucleic acid, which is a group of complex compounds that can be found in all living cells or viruses, and controls cell health and function. Nucleic acids are composed of polymers and monomers, which are referred to as nucleotides. There are four different types of nucleotides that make up the structure of DNA, which are abbreviated A, C, T, and G. Covalent bonds join together nucleotides through sugar and phosphate. Polynucleotides, or a polymer nucleotide, which tends to be longer than a monomer nucleotide, contains many variations of arrangements of A, C, T, and G.…

    Proteins are complex molecules that each has a very unique shape, structure and function. The shape of the proteins is held up by a chain of subunits called amino acids that are connected by peptide bonds. Protein structures are formed by four levels of folding. The primary structure is the linear sequence of amino acids. The secondary structure describes the folding of alpha helixes and beta pleated sheets. The tertiary structure represents the overall shape of the protein and the quaternary structure only occurs in a protein consisting of more than one amino acid chain. When the shape, the structure or the function of proteins is incorrect, it is likely because of some type of change in the sequence of the amino acids or whether a certain amino acid required is present.…
