The functions of DNA and RNA in Protein Synthesis and the varied functions of proteins Doc Brown's biology exam revision study notes: These pages will help you answer questions such as ... What is a nucleotide? What is its structure? What is the structure of DNA? Why is it classed as a polymer? How does DNA code for amino acids and hence proteins? What is the function of DNA? How are proteins synthesised? What is RNA? What is the function of RNA? What is a triplet code? How can we extract DNA from cells? How do cells make proteins in the cytoplasm? What functions to proteins have in living organisms? Sub-index for this section on DNA structure and protein synthesis (1) How was the molecular structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) worked out? (2) The molecular structure of nucleotides and DNA (3) The coding function of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), genes, chromosomes, genome (4) DNA coding and the full details of protein synthesis in ribosomes (5) The effects of mutations and formation of variants in coding and non-coding DNA (6) A quick diagrammatic summary of protein synthesis for DNA coding in the ribosomes (7) How to extract DNA from plant cells - a simple experiment with strawberries (8) A summary of DNA replication (9) Examples of the different types and functions of proteins WHERE NEXT?
