Central Dogma

Flow of genetic information within a biological


System from living thing to living thing

Chargaffs rules

Concentration of bases adenine =thymine =cytosine

Messenger RNA (mRNA)

Copies the genetic instruction from DNA in the


nucleus and carries them to the cytoplasm

Ribosomal RNA

Helps from ribosomes where proteins are


Assembled

Transfer RNA

Brings amino acids to ribosomea where they joined together to from proteins

Codon

Letters are combined in groups of 3 to from code words

Genetic code

Sequence of nitrogen bases -A C G T (or U) - in a Polynucleotide chain these are the instrucions from DNA

Promoter code

Is a region a DNA that initiates transcription of a particular gene

Protei synthesis

Process in which cells make proteins

Transcription

Frist part of central dogma of molecular biology


DNA-> RNA

Translation

SecondFpart of central dogma of molecular biology DNA-> protein

Chromosomal alteration

Mutations that change chromosome structure

Frameshift mutation

A type of genes mutation wherein the addition


Or deletion of a numder of nucleotide(s) causes a shift in the reading frame of the codons in the mRNA

Genetic Disorder

Disease caused by a muamtation in one or a few


Genes

Mutagen

Anythinh in the environment that can cause a mutation

Mutation

Change in the sequence of basses in DNA OR RNA

mutation

Change in the single nucleotide inDNA

Point mutation

Change in the single nucleotide inDNA

Somatic mutation

Mutations may have littel effect on the organism because they are confined to jist one cell abd its daughter

Gene expression

The converison of the info. From the gene into MRNA via trancription and then to protein via translation resulting in the phenotypic manifestation of the gene

Operator

Is a segment of DNA to which a transcriptipn factor binds to regulate gene expression

Operon

Region of DNA that consista of one or more genes that encode the proteins needed for a specific function

Regulatory protein

Any protein that interacts with DNA sequences of a gene and control its transcrpion
