Master Protein Synthesis fast ⚡ – clear explanations, supportive visuals, OCR-aligned.
You’ll cover
• What protein synthesis is and how genetic information is used to build polypeptides.
• The two stages of protein synthesis: transcription and translation.
• Where transcription and translation occur in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
• The role of mRNA, tRNA and ribosomes in assembling amino acids in the correct order.
• How codons and anticodons ensure accurate amino acid sequencing.
• The directionality of translation and how peptide bonds form between amino acids.
What’s included
• Clear, labelled diagrams showing transcription within the nucleus.
• Detailed diagrams of translation at the ribosome, including tRNA and codon interactions.
• Visual step-by-step sequences showing polypeptide formation.
• Tables summarising the structure and function of different types of RNA.
• Codon tables showing how base triplets specify amino acids.
• Concise spec reminders embedded alongside diagrams and tables to reinforce key OCR wording and expectations.
