The human genome is a multi-volume instruction manual
• The GENOME is a multi-volume instruction manual
• Each CHROMOSOME is a volume of text
• Genes are a chapter of text in the volume
• The text is written in a chemical language that has a four letter alphabet A,C,G,T NUCLEOTIDES
Our instruction manual can be read in our DNA

Mitochondrial DNA•Double stranded•Circular•Located in the mitochondrion
Genomes of closely related organisms show more similar organization

Eukaryotic Genes are interrupted by noncoding intronic sequence
Genes of mammals have more intronicsequence than flies, yeast and bacteria
GENES

Certain Information in the DNA sequence is processed to result in proteins that can carryout an essential cell function
Gene
One strand of the DNA sequence (the template) is written into a intermediate message
Messenger RNA
![Page 16: Genomes DNA Genes to Proteins - Western University · 2011. 2. 10. · Genes to Proteins Kathleen Hill Lab Tour WSC 333. 2 The human genome is a multi-volume instruction manual](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022063011/5fc68c294760b818f016706e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

One strand of the DNA sequence (the template) is written into a intermediate message
Messenger RNA (mRNA)
mRNA•Single stranded
•Complex secondary structure
•Complementary sequence shows hydrogen bonding

A distinguishing feature of mRNA is the polyA tail
![Page 18: Genomes DNA Genes to Proteins - Western University · 2011. 2. 10. · Genes to Proteins Kathleen Hill Lab Tour WSC 333. 2 The human genome is a multi-volume instruction manual](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022063011/5fc68c294760b818f016706e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

The message is then translated into a new language
Amino acids are a 20 letter alphabet of the protein language
One code used to translate from nucleic acid to protein sequence
Each codon will be translated to an amino acid

tRNA is the translator •amino acid carrier
•Carries the anticodonThe anticodon is complementary to the codon
