Presentation Transcript

  1. DNA Replication a Protein Synthesis By: Caitlyn Metros and Jonathan Torres

  2. Structures of DNA • DNA is a double helix. • Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA • The Bases of DNA are: • Adenine=Guanine • Thymine=Cytosine

  3. Who Discovered DNA • Rosalind Franklin was the first person to actually see DNA. She used the technology known as X-ray Crystallography. • However, Watson and Crick received credit for the findings.

  4. Steps of Protein Synthesis • DNA--------->RNA--------->Protein (Transcription) (Translation) Transcription rewrites the DNA code as messenger RNA.

  5. Steps of DNA Replication • An enzyme breaks the hydrogen bond between the pair nitrogen bases. • This allows DNA to “UNZIP” as the two strands move apart.
