Show tRNAs bound to valine codons first without taking wobble into consideration, second taking wobble into consideration. Indicate the number of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases required without and with wobble and describe why wobble is beneficial to the cell economy. 10. Briefly explain why DNA and RNA synthesis goes from S' to 3'. 6

Step 1
- Corresponding tRNA isoacceptors (no wobble): four distinct tRNA valines, each with an anticodon complementary to one codon: - anticodon pairing with GUU - anticodon pairing with GUC - anticodon pairing with GUA - anticodon pairing with GUG - Each codon Show more…

5 Show tRNAs bound to ala codons first without taking wobble into consideration, second taking wobble into consideration. Indicate the number of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases required without and with wobble and describe why wobble is beneficial to the cell economy.

Four different codons encode the amino acid valine. A. Taking into account wobble rules, what is the minimum number of tRNAs necessary for translation of the valine codons (see table of codons at end of exam)? (1 points) B. Using the wobble hypothesis, give the anticodons of the tRNAs (minimal number) that are needed to translate the valine codons. Make sure you indicate their polarity. (4 points)

The existence of 64 different codon triplets and 20 different amino acids is reconciled in the cell by: A. failure to use most of the available triplets as mRNA codons. B. wobble in which the 3' nucleotide of the anticodon can pair loosely with the codon. C. wobble in which the 5' nucleotide of the anticodon can pair loosely with the codon. D. an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that recognizes over 60 different tRNAs. E. the cell has not figured this one out yet.
