  1. WHAT DOES DNA DO??WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TOA CELL WITHOUT DNA CONTROL?

  2. RNAP = RNA Polymerase

  3. Brown Recluse Spider Bite

  4. Brown Recluse Spider Bite • The brown recluse spider venom inhibits RNA Polymerase. • Without the ability for information to transfer out of the cell, cells will die. Day 5 after bite

  5. Brown Recluse Spider Bite Day 6 after bite

  6. Brown Recluse Spider Bite Day 9 after bite

  7. Brown Recluse Spider Bite Day 10 after bite

  8. Frederick Griffith’s Mouse Experiment, 1928

  9. Alfred Hershey’s and Martha Chase’s experiments in 1952 helped to confirm that DNA was the genetic material.

  10. DNA has a double-helix structure

  11. Information in DNA • How is the information in DNA recorded? • How is the information encoded? • Are there letters? • Words?

  12. Purine and Pyrimidine bases make up the DNA molecule. Adenine & Guanine = Purine Thymine & Cytosine = Pyrimidine
