Chapter 2 Nucleic Acid Chemistry Composation Structure Function DNA RNA
introduction Francis Harry Compton Crick 1868 Fridrich Miescher first isolated nuclein from pyocyte. 1944 O.Avery confirmed DNA is hereditary substance. 1953 J.Watson F.Crick discovered DNA double helix. 1968 Nirenberg found the genetic code . James Dewey Watson Marshall W. Nirenberg
Nucleic acid is a polymer of nucleotide ,having and transfering genetic information, include deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)and ribonucleic acid(RNA).
Ribonucleoside核苷 The linkage of base with ribose(2-deoxyribose) by glycoside formed ribonucleoside(deoxynucleoside脱氧核苷). 核苷:腺苷AR,鸟苷GR,胞苷CR,尿苷UR。 脱氧核苷:脱氧腺苷dAR,脱氧鸟苷dGR,脱氧胞苷dCR,脱氧胸苷dTR。 cytidine胞苷CR guanine deoxyriboside 脱氧鸟苷dGR
Nucleotide核苷酸 The product of ribonucleoside linking of phosphoric acid at 5’ position. 核苷酸: 腺苷酸AMP,鸟苷酸GMP,胞苷酸CMP,尿苷酸UMP。 脱氧核苷酸: 脱氧腺苷酸dAMP,脱氧鸟苷酸dGMP,脱氧胞苷酸dCMP,脱氧胸苷酸dTMP。 胞苷酸CMP 脱氧鸟苷酸dGMP
DNA DNA was formed by linking of deoxynucleotides with phosphodiester bond at 3’ position of one deoxynucleotide and 5’ position of another deoxynucleotide. So is the RNA formation mode, difference is the nucleotide.
Section 2 Dimensional structure and function of DNA • 1.Double-stranded helix • The two strands are antiparallel. • The chain, phosphoric acid and deoxyribose, locate lateral of the helix, but bases are in the helix. • Pair strictly A to T, G to C. • A turn contains 10 nucleotides, with height 3.4nm. • Width 2.0nm. • Form a major groove and a minor groove. • Rotating right-handed. • The maintaining force of the structure is hydrogen-bond.

Versatility of DNA double helix A型结构 碱基平面倾斜20º,螺旋变粗变短,螺距2~3nm。 Z型结构 左手螺旋,只有小沟
2.Tertiary structure of DNA----supercoil Further coil of the DNA double helix. 正超螺旋 负超螺旋
3. Nucleosome 核小体 DNA: ~200bp Histone: H1, H2A,H2B H3,H4.
4.Function of DNA Containing genetic information, as the template of gene duplication , DNA finally directs protein biosynthesis. As a result, keeping hereditary characters of body. Gene refer to a segment of DNA chain which posseses a special biological function.
Section3 spatial structure and function of RNA RNAs in animal cell
mRNA --messenger RNA • 5’cap:m7GpppNm- • 3’Poly A tail:An n=20—200 • Single chain • half life time from munits to hours
tRNA --transfer RNA • Stem-loop structure, cloverleaf pattern三叶草形. • 3 loop and 1 arm: DHU loop, anticoden loop, Tφloop, AA arm. • Anticoden and CCA-OH 3’end. • Contain rare bases 10%-20%.
Rare bases Ψ I DHU mG Ψ:pseudouracil假尿嘧啶,I:hypoxanthine次黄嘌呤, DHU:dihydrouracil二氢尿嘧啶, mG:7-methylguanine7-甲基鸟嘌呤.
tRNA tertiary structure: a inverse L like.
tRNA functions as a amino acid transfer in protein biosynthesis.
rRNA --ribosomal RNA • Weight 80% of total RNA in a cell. • Flower like. • Component of ribosome. • procaryote:5S,16S,23S; eukaryote: 18S,5S,5.8S,28S Eukaryote 18S rRNA
Section 4. physical and chemical properties of nucleic acid • General character • acidity. • high viscosity of DNA • breaking easily
2. Ultraviolet absorption • Nucleic acids get their maximum absorption at 260nm. • DNA solution: A260/A280=1.8; RNA solution: A260/A280= 2.0 • OD260=1.0, equal to 50μg/ml DS DNA, 40μg/ml SS DNA or RNA.
3. DNA denaturation --the double chain change into single chain. Methods: heat, acid, base, urea, acetone Result: OD260↑, viscosity↓, activity lose.
Tm --melting temperature, 解开链温度,融解温度,refer tothe middle point of temperature range of DNA thermal denaturation . • The temperature of 50% double chain undoing. • Tm=69.3+0.41(G+C)%
4.Renaturation and hybridization Renaturation: the single DNA chains recover their natural double helix structure. Annealing退火: renaturation of thermal denatural DNA, by way of slow cooling. Hybridization杂交:phenomenon of single chain DNA or RNA bind the chain different origin in renaturation process.
Section 5. nucleases核酸酶 • Nuclease: hydrolysis of nucleic acid. • DNase: hydrolysis of DNA. • RNase: hydrolysis of RNA. • exonuclease外切酶: act at the end of the chain • endonuclease核酸内切酶:act at the inner part of the chain • restriction enzyme限制性内切酶:cut a special point of the chain. • ribozyme核酶:consists of RNA, not protein.
