Genetic Codon The Three nucleotide base sequence in mRNA that act as code words for amino acids in protein constitute the genetic code or codons.
There are 64 different combinations of three base codons composed of Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine (C) and Uracil (U).
Written from the 5-’ end to 3’ end.
UAA,UAG & UGA do not code for amino acid. They are called as stop codon or non sense codon.
Characteristics of Genetic Code are:
University: same codon for same amino acid in all living organism.
Specificity: A particular codon will code for the same amino acid,highly specific or unambiguous.
Non overlapping : read from a fixed point as a continuous base sequence.
Degenerate: Most of the amino acids have more than one codon. 61 codons available to code for only 20 amino acids.
DNA :DNA stands for Deoxy Ribonucleic acid.
It’s the genetic code that determines all the characteristics of living organism.
DNA is a double stranded molecule, made up of two chains of nucleotides. Nucleotides consist of three subunits : a sugar, a phosphate group and a nitrogen base pair.
Sugar present is Deoxyribose and Nitrogen bases are :
Adenine (A)
Guanine (G)
Cytosine (C)
Thymine (T)
Structure of DNA : Double helical structure of DNA was proposed by James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953.
Features of model of DNA are:
DNA is a right handed double helix, have two polydeoxyribonucleotide chains twisted around each other on a common axis.
Two strands are antiparallel i.e., one strand runs in the 5’ to 3’ direction while the other in 3’ to 5’ direction.
The diameter of helix is 20 A° (2nm).
Each turn of the helix is 34 A° (3.4 nm) with 10 pairs of nucleotides, each pair placed at a distance of about 3.4 A°.
The two strands are held together by Hydrogen bonds formed by complementary base pairs. The A-T pair has 2 hydrogen bonds while G-C pair has 3 hydrogen bonds.
The complementary base pairing in DNA helix proves Chargaff’s rule. The content of adenine equals to that of thymine (A=T) and guanine equals to that of the cytosine (G≡C).

Solution
Question
Answer
Where does DNA replication take place:
It takes place in the nucleus in case of eukaryotic cells and in the cytoplasm in case of
prokaryotic cells
When does DNA replication take place:
DNA replication occurs during the S-phase during cell cycle, so that cell can make an extra copy
of genetic material.
Explain steps involved in DNA replication:
Initiation: During initiation, the proteins will bind to the origin of replication; helicase unwinds
the DNA helix which results in the formation of two replication forks.
Elongation: A RNA primer sequence will be added to this the DNA pol III will add the
nucleotides in 5’ to 3’ direction and chain will elongate.
Termination: In case of bacteria, termination of replication occurs whenever two replication
forks meet each other from the opposite end of the parental chromosome.
Transcription
Gene expression first step is transcription, here a particular segment of DNA will be copied into
RNA with the help of the enzyme RNA polymerase
Translation
Translation is the final step of the gene expression. Here mRNA will be used to synthesize the
polypeptide chain. The information present in the mRNA in the form of codon will code for the
amino acids needed for polypeptide chain synthesis.
What is RNA?
RNA is ribonucleic acid and is found in all living cells. It acts as the messenger carrying
instructions from DNA for the synthesis of proteins.
Few viruses will have RNA as their genetic material.
What is codon?
Codon is a sequence of three nucleotides and they together form a unit of genetic code in either
DNA or RNA.
What is anticodon?
It is found on tRNA and it is a sequence of three nucleotides which forms a genetic code on
tRNA, and these anticodon is complementary to the codons found on messenger RNA.
What is a protein molecule?
During translation, when amino acids are added in a sequential manner, the condensation of
amino acids will form a peptide bond in between them and finally forms a polypeptide chain. It
is the DNA through mRNA directs the protein synthesis.
Point mutation
In point mutation, only one or very few nucleotides will be affected or mutated in a gene
sequence.
Frame shift mutation
Either insertions or deletion can result in frame shift mutation, due to th.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
