Human BiologyBiological molecules, organic chemistry and biochemistryASOCR Created by: crazyclutzCreated on: 07-10-12 18:29 Gene A Gene is a length of DNA that codes for a protein 1 of 10 Step 1 : Example Insulin mRNA copy the instructions (gene) for insulin is made in the nucleus. 2 of 10 Step 2 mRNA leaves the nucleus through the nuclear pore. 3 of 10 step 3 mRNA attaches itself to a ribosome in this case attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. The ribosome reads the instructions to assemble the protein. 4 of 10 step 4 Insulin molecules are 'pinched off' in a vesicle and travels towards the golgi apparatus. 5 of 10 step 5 vesicles fuse with the golgi apparatus 6 of 10 step 6 The Golgi apparatus processes and re-packages the insulin molecules ready for release. 7 of 10 Step 7 The packaged insulin molecules are pinched off in vesicles from the golgi apparatus and move towards the cell surface membrane. 8 of 10 Step 8 The vesicles fuse with the cell surface membrane . 9 of 10 step 9 Cell surfrace membrane opens to release the insulin molecules outside. ready for use. 10 of 10
