11/6 Snork Lab

Today we analyzed a Snork's genes of its DNA and determined the traits of the Snork based off of that. Protein Synthesis determines the physical or chemical trait.

Protein Synthesis in order-
Gene
DNA
mRNA
Amino Acid
Polypeptide
Protein (gives us trait)
Enzyme

Example of what we did-
We converted the DNA base to mRNA base
CAT AGG GAG to...
GUA UCC CUC

Every gene's beginning starts with a Start Codon (AUG) and ends with a stop codon (UAA)

We then used this wheel to find the Amino Acid sequence based off of the mRNA sequence.

The Amino Acid sequence coded for a specific trait, and we used those traits to draw the Snoopy Snork.
