|
|
|
Cytoskeleton
|
Network of protein fibers that provides structural support throughout the cytosol .
|
|
|
Cytoskeleton types (protein filaments)
|
Microfilaments (outside)
Intermediate filaments (inside) Microtubules (in nucleus) |
|
|
Centrosomes
|
Located near nucleus
Contains 2 centrioles and a pericentriolar membrane |
|

|
|
Transcription vs translation
|
Transcription occurs in the nucleus, RNA polymerase rides along DNA to produce mRNA that corresponds to the genes sequences of DNA (thymine becomes uracil)
Translation occurs in cytoplasm. Ribosomal subunits form around mRNA, tRNA attaches to ribosome at P site then A site based on the anticodon sequence it carries. The tRNA brings an amino acid and a polypeptide bond forms between the two via dehydration synthesis. The tRNA at the p site detaches and cycle repeates till stop codon it reached and polypeptide chain is formed. |
