H1 The genetic code
Trang 3Triplet code
• The nucleotide sequence of the
mRNA is colinear with the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide in
encodes The relationship between
them is called the genetic code
• 5’ -3’ N terminal -C terminal
Trang 4• The three nucleotides in group called codons
• 4 3 =64 codons
• Initiation codon (AUG)
• stop codon ( UAA, UAG,UGA)
Trang 5Triplet code
Trang 6The genetic code is degenerate
• 64 codons ,but only 20 amino
acids,so that ,a single amino acid is coded for by several different
codons, that is degenerate
• Synonyms:different codons specify the same amino acid
Trang 7• Codon and anticodon: a triplet of bases in a
specific tRNA molecule.each base is the codon base –pairs with its complementary base in the anticodon.
• Wobble base-pairing

Trang 11Different code
Trang 12Reading frames
Trang 13Open reading frames
• An open reading frame(ORE) is a run of codons that starts with ATG and ends with atermination codon, TGA TAA or TAG.Coding regions of genes contain relatively long OPFs unlike noncoding DNA where ORFs are comparatively short
Trang 15• Translation relies upon
aminoacyl-tRNA that carry specific amino acids and recognize the
corresponding codons in mRNA
by anticodon-codon base-pairing
Trang 16Synthesis of tRNA(amino acid activation)
Trang 18Synthesis of aminoacyl-tRNA is crucially important for two reasons:
• First :each amino acid must be
covalently linked to a tRNA molecule in order to take part in protein
synthesis,which depend upon the
adaptor function of tRNA
Trang 19• Second :the covalent bond is a
high energy bond that enables the amino acid to react with the end of the growing polypeptide chain
Trang 20The synthesis reaction occurs in
two steps
• The first step is the reaction of amino acid and ATP to form an aminoacyl-AMP
• The second step is the aminoacyl
group of aminoacyl-AMP is
transferred to the 3’end of the Trna
molecule to form aminoacyl-tRNA
Trang 21Step one
Trang 22Step two :
Aminoacyl-AMP+tRNA -aminoacyl-tRNA +AMP
Trang 23Initiation of protein synthesis
Trang 24fMet-tRNA f Met
Trang 25Elongaion
Trang 26Protein synthesis in E.coli
Trang 27• Each ribosome has three
binding sites for tRNAs; an A site where the incoming aminoacyl-
tRNA binds, a P site where the
tRNA linked to the growing
polypeptide chain is bound, and
an E site which binds tRNA prior
to its release from the ribosome
Trang 28• Translation in prokaryotes begins by
the formation of a 30s initiation
complex between the 30s ribosomal
subunit, mRNA, initiation factors and fMet tRNA f met The 30s subunit
binds to the Shine-Dalgarno sequence which lies 5' to the AUG Start codon
and is complementary to the 16s rRNA
of the small ribosomal subunit
Trang 29• The ribosome then moves in a 3'
direction along the mRNA until it
encounters the AUG codon The 50s ribosomal subunit now binds to the
30s initiation complex to form the 70s intiation complex In this complex,the anticodon of form the 70s intiation
complex.In this complex, the
anticodon of the fMet tRNA f met is
base-paired to the AUG initiation
codon (start codon) in the P site

• Lysosomal proteins
• Mitochondrial and chloroplast proteins
• Nuclear proteins
H4 Protein targeting
Trang 37• Both in prokaryotes and
eukaryotes, newly synthesized
proteins must be delivered to
specific subcellular location or
exported from the cell for correct for activity This phenomenon is called protein targeting
Trang 38Secretory proteins
• Secretory proteins have an N-terminal
signal peptide which targets the protein to
be synthesized on the rough endoplasmic reticulum
• During synthesis it is translocated through the RER membrane into the lumen
Trang 39• Vesicles then bud off from the RER and carry the protein to the Golgi
complex,where it becomes glycosylated.
• Others vesicles then carry it to the
plasma membrane.
• Fusion of these transport vesicles with the plasma membrane then releases the protein to the cell exterior.
Trang 40Plasma membrane proteins
• The orientation of the protein in the membrane is determined
by topogenic sequences within the polypeptide chain 。 Type proteins have a cleaved N-terminal signal sequence and a
Ⅰ
hydrophobic stop-transfer sequence , Type have an Ⅱ
uncleaved N-terminal signal sequence that doubles as the
membrane-anchoring sequence , and Type have multiple Ⅲ signal sequences and stop-transfer sequences 。
Trang 41Proteins of the endoplasmic reticulum
• Proteins destined for the ER have an
N-terminal signal peptide , are
synthesized on the RER , are
translocated into the RER lumen and
transported by vesicles to the Golgi 。
Once there , a C-terminal amino acid sequence ( KDEL ) is recognized by
a Golgi receptor protein that causes other vesicles to return the protein to the ER
Trang 43Lysosomal proteins
• Lysosomal proteins are targeted to
the lysosomes via the addition of a
mannose 6-phosphate signal that is addad in the cis-compartment of the Golgi and is recognized by a receptor protein in the trans-compartment of
the Golgi 。
Trang 44Mitochondrial and chloroplast
proteins
• Most mitochondria and chloroplast
protein are made on free cytosolic
ribosomes , released into the
mitochondrial matrix requires a
matrix-targeting sequence and
occurs at sites where the outer and
inner mitochondrial membranes
come into contact 。
Trang 45• Three types of protein glycosylation
• Synthesis of O-linked oligosaccharides
• Synthesis of N-linked oligosaccharides
H5 protein glycosylation
Trang 46Three types of protein
glycosylation
• Many protein synthesized by ribosomes
of the RER contain short chains of
and are called glycoproteins The
oligosaccharides are of two main types
; O-linked ( to the Ohside chain of
Trang 47Synthesis of O-linked oligosaccharides
• O-linked oligosaccharides are
Synthesized by the sequential
addition of monosaccharides to the
protein as it passes through the Golgi complex
Trang 48Synthesis of N-linked
oligosaccharides
• All N-linked oligosaccharides have a
common pentasaccharide core structure
of three mannose residues and two
Trang 50
This is then transferred to the protein
and subsequently trimmed during
passage of the protein through the RER and Golgi complex, Additional
monosaccharides are added in the
Golgi to produce either a high mannose type oligosaccharide or a complex type oligosaccharide
