This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Deoxys Derivatives, Nucleotides linked by a hydrogen bond on opposite strands of DNA: guanine is the complementary base of cytosine, and adenine is the complementary base of thymine in DNA Complementary Base Pairing, DNA encodes for Protein, Transcription is the transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA, Amino Acids are carried to the ribosome for polymerization into a polypeptide by the tRNA, Sequence of bases is the precise ordering of the bases (A, T, G, C) from which DNA is composed. Base pairs form naturally only between A and T and between G and C. They form the basic structure Nucleotides, Polypeptides are chains of Amino Acids, RNA Polymerase is an enzyme that produces primary transcript for RNA, Gene regulation can be used to produce RNA, Gene regulation can occur in many places during Transcription, DNA under goes multiple Replication, Ribosome a minute particle consisting of RNA and associated proteins, found in large numbers in the cytoplasm of living cells. They bind messenger RNA and transfer RNA to synthesize polypeptides and Protein, Replication is important because when a cell divides, the daughter cells need to contain the same DNA, Promoter is a sequence of DNA needed to turn a gene on or off. It is found in the DNA, Promoter is a site on DNA to which the enzyme RNA polymerase can bind to initiate the transcription of DNA into RNA, RNA act as a messenger carrying instructions, and controls the synthesis of proteins on behalf of the DNA, Amino Acids all contain an amino group and a carboxylic acid group. There are 20 common, 9 essential (histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan and valine.) Amino acids are important because they make up/are the building blocks of Protein, Stop Codon is a nucleotide triplet within messenger RNA that signals a termination of Translation, RNA in retroviruses (such as HIV) can be used for Information Storage, RNA is unique because instead of Thymine, it has Uracil to pair up with Adenine, just like DNA is made up of Nucleotides, Genotype contains the genetic constitution of an individual organism.
