Document Summary

Trna: protein ribonucleic acid complexes, catalyze formation of peptide bond, the template, three base code specifies binding of amino acyl trna (transcribed from dna, the translator (interpreter, converts nucleic acid code into protein structure, anticipated by watson and crick, enzymes that attach amino acids to the trna, for initiation, elongation, termination. Stop codon: uag, uaa, uga trna, transfer rna, polymer of nucleotides. Features of trna molecules: acceptor stem, template recognition site, amino acid attachment site, amino acid is esterified to hydroxyl on adenosyl, anticodon, complements mrna codon 5" to 3". For class i: requires the input of energy in the form of a high energy intermediate, the aminoacyl group is transferred initially to the 2" hydroxyl group of the 3" terminal a, then to the 3" hydroxyl by a transesterification, the aminoacyl group is transferred directly to the 3" hydroxyl group of the terminal adenine residue, polypeptide chain growth.

The allele for retinitis pigmentosa, which causes a form of blindness, is inherited as an autosomal recessive. You have determined that the frequency of this allele (r) in the population is 0.4 (40%). Using the principles of the Hardy-Weinberg rule, you would estimate the frequency of individuals who are heterozygous for this allele (Rr) in the population to be:

a.	0.16 (16%)
