mRNA Translation (Basic)

    TRANSCRIPT: When the RNA copy is complete, it snakes out into the outer part of the cell. Then in a dazzling display of choreography, all the components of a molecular machine lock together around the RNA to form a miniature factory called a ribosome. It translates the genetic information in the RNA into a string of amino acids that will become a protein. Special transfer molecules, the green triangles, bring each amino acid to the ribosome. The amino acids are the small red tips attached to the transfer molecules. There are different transfer molecules for each of the twenty amino acids. Each transfer molecule carries a three letter code that is matched with the RNA in the machine. Now we come to the heart of the process. Inside the ribosome, the RNA is pulled through like a tape. The code for each amino acid is read off, three letters at a time, and matched to three corresponding letters on the transfer molecules. When the right transfer molecule plugs in, the amino acid it carries is added to the growing protein chain. Again, you are watching this in real time. And after a few seconds the assembled protein starts to emerge from the ribosome. Ribosomes can make any kind of protein. It just depends what genetic message you feed in on the RNA. In this case, the end product is hemoglobin. The cells in our bone marrow churn out a hundred trillion molecules of it per second! And as a result, our muscles, brain and all the vital organs in our body receive the oxygen they need.

      In general. yes. And what's the problem? Evolution of nature increases complexity - this is based on the laws of physics. The same thermodynamics causes both entropy and in response to it when there's the influx of energy - life whose basic property is to evolve.

  • @norvillerodgersspeaks
    @norvillerodgersspeaks 10 лет назад

    mRNA is a set of complimentary characters that get copied from a segment of DNA by cellular machinery into a little string. mRNA is further processed by the cell, and used as instructions for making proteins or other things. tRNA are little bundles of RNA that carry a three character sequence (the anticodon) that is checked against an mRNA by some sort of translating protein complex. If the tRNA matches, the anti-codon's compliment is added to the string being printed by the protein complex.

    • @TonyTigerTonyTiger
      @TonyTigerTonyTiger 6 лет назад

      This is also incorrect.
      You used the wrong term: complimentary (and compliment). The correct term is complementary. The two terms have different meanings.
      The anti-codon's complement is not added to the "string being printed". An amino acid is.

    Basically mRNA is a string of characters (a carbon copy of some DNA), and tRNA is a codon carrier complex that gives its codon to a protein complex in a cell so that that string of characters (mRNA) can be used to print other things. I recommend watching the DNA learning center's videos about RNA splicing and DNA translation a few times to appreciate how these types of RNA interact and are related

    • @TonyTigerTonyTiger
      @TonyTigerTonyTiger 6 лет назад

      Sorry, but what you said is not right.
      The codons are in mRNA, not tRNA. tRNAs have the anticodons.
      Codons are not given to proteins. Codons are used by the ribosome to determine which amino acids to add to the growing polypeptide.

    Wow, this complex system underpinning life is just crying out for mankind to meddle with it, then force the untested product of their meddling out onto the wider population. What could go wrong?
    Of course there are risks, but we had to, because we had been meddling with other things, and that went wrong, and now we have to meddle with this to protect ourselves from the threat our other meddling created. But don’t worry too much, anxiety is not good for your health.
