DNA & RNA Parts and What-not
Deoxyribose (5-C sugar) Adenine Thymine Cytosine Guanine Phosphate group Nitrogen base Watson & Crick 1953 Which are made of: nucleotides What is it made of? Heredity Life processes First model: Who discovered the double helix shape? DNA What is it’s function? Deoxyribonucleic acid Griffith ’28 & Avery ‘44 Other important scientists: Hershey & Chase 1952 Replication Chargoff 1949 Define: Double helix Copy Wilkins & Franklin 1952 Process: AGTGCATGTTACCGA TCACGTACAATGGCT
Single strand Uracil not thymine Ribose not deoxyribose mRNA – messenger RNA Carries DNA “message” How does RNA differ from DNA? Complements DNA RNA Ribonucleic acid tRNA – transfer RNA Carries and delivers amino acids What forms does RNA take? How does it work? DNA – ATCCGTG RNA -- UAGGCAC rRNA – Ribosomal RNA Ribosomes are made of it. DNA – TACGAT RNA -- AUGCUA
