Protein Synthesis Vocabulary
Protein Synthesis is when DNA’s code
is used by the cell to make proteins.
Protein Synthesis is also called gene
expression.
The genes “express themselves” when
the proteins they code for are made.

DNA has the code but RNA is
needed to make proteins.
There are major differences
between DNA and RNA….
DNA vs RNA
Contains deoxyribose
sugar
Is double stranded
Bonds A-T and C-G
Never leaves the
nucleus
Contains ribose
sugar
Is single stranded
Bonds A-U and C-G
Can leave the
nucleus

The Role of ENZYMES
To what organic compound group
do enzymes belong?
Enzymes are necessary in making a
protein by controlling different parts
of the reactions.
breaks hydrogen bonds between
nitrogen bases
brings new nucleotides and bonds
them to existing strands
Translation
Protein is made by mRNA and tRNA
Information is “deciphered” to build a
protein.
Transcription
mRNA is made by copying DNA’s code
for a protein
Information in DNA is “rewritten” as a
molecule of mRNA
DNA
DNA contains the code for all traits/
proteins
