  1. Chap 13 DNA CO 13

  2. 13.1 – THE GENETIC MATERIAL Finding the molecule…..the material must be… Able to store information that pertains to the development, structure and metabolic activities of the cell Stable so that it can be replicated Able to undergo changes (mutations)

  3. 1869 – Discovering Nucleic Acids Swiss Physician, Johannes Friedrich Miescher isolated the chemical he called “nuclein” from the nuclei of pus cells Now called nucleic acids DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) RNA (ribonucleic acid)

  4. NUCLEOTIDES (found in nuclein) Contain a sugar, phosphate and a nitrogen base Adenine Guanine Cytosine Thymine

  5. THE BIG QUESTION Is it nucleic acids that contain the genetic code or is it proteins? Proteins contain 20 amino acids that can be organized in countless ways to determine traits Nucleic acids only contained 4 different nucleotides

  6. Frederick Griffith attempted to find a vaccine against pneumococcus He found that one type of bacteria could turn into another TRANSFORMATION OF BACTERIA

  11. DNA WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE TRANSFORMING SUBSTANCEConclusions: DNA from S strain bacteria causes R strain to be transformed Enzymes that degrade proteins will not stop the transformation Enzymes that degrade DNA does stop the transformation Transformation Animation Activity

  12. Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase Experiments

  13. Figure 13.2

  14. Figure 13.2a

  15. Figure 13.2b

  16. Bacteriophages – viruses that infect bacteria Consist of a protein capsid And a core of DNA (or RNA) Experiments used radioactive sulfur to tag the protein And radioactive phosphorous to tag the DNA The goal was to see which substance (protein or DNA) moved into the infected cell

  17. Figure 13.3a Conclusion:  The radioactive tag on the DNA went into the bacteria

  18. Figure 13.3b Conclusion:  The radioactive tag on the protein did not go into the bacteria Animation of the Hershey and Chase Experiment

  19. THE RACE IS ON! Who will be the first to discover the structure of DNA?

  20. Who is in the race? • Chargaff’s Rule • Amount of A, T, G, C varies by species • A = TG = C always Erwin Chargaff * Noted that all a species had similar ratios of A, T, G, C

  29. DNA: THE DOUBLE HELIX Steps of ladder are bases (A, T, G, C) Sides of ladder are sugar & phosphate Both sides held together by hydrogen bonds

  30. Ball & Stick Model

  31. 5’ and 3’ ENDS Each Side is ANTIPARALLEL

  32. Nucleotide = 1 base Deoxyribose (sugar) 1 phosphate

  33. Figure 13.6c

  34. What’s wrong with this drawing?

  35. Origami template DNA DOUBLE HELIX - origami

  36. DNA REPLICATION -the process by which DNA makes a copy of itself-occurs during interphase, prior to cell division Replication is called semi-conservative, because one half of the original strand is always saved, or "conserved“

  37. 1. DNA helicase , replication fork. 2. DNA polymerase adds nucleotides and binds the sugars and phosphates. ***DNA polymerase travels from the 3' to the 5' end. The DNA is called the template strand.*** 3. One side is the leading strand - it follows the helicase as it unwinds.

  38. 5. The other side is the lagging strand - its moving away from the helicase (in the 5' to 3' direction). OKAZAKI FRAGMENTS are bound by DNA LIGASE Problem: it reaches the replication fork, but the helicase is moving in the opposite direction. It stops, and another polymerase binds farther down the chain. 6. Multiple replication forks all down the strand.
