The Information Catch-22
“With only poor copying fidelity, a primitive
system could carry little genetic information
without L [the mutation rate] becoming
unbearably large, and how a primitive system
could then improve its fidelity and also
evolve into a sexual system with crossover
beggars the imagination.”
Hoyle F., "Mathematics of Evolution", [1987],

DNA Replication:
How We Know
 There are three
Conservative - Old
ways in which DNA could be replicated:
Semi-conservative Old strands serve as
templates for new
strands resulting in
double-stranded
DNA made of both
old and new strands
double-stranded
DNA serves as a
template for two
new strands which
then join together,
giving two old
strands together
and two new
Dispersive - In
strands together
which sections of
the old strands are
dispersed in the
new strands

demonstrated that replication is

OH H
 This experiment took advantage of
the fact that nucleotide bases contain nitrogen
 Thus DNA contains nitrogen
 The most common form of nitrogen is N14 with 7
protons and 7 neutrons
 N15 is called “heavy nitrogen” as it has 8 neutrons
thus increasing its mass by 1 atomic mass unit

media
Bacteria grown in
N15 media for
several replications
The conservative and
dispersive models
make predictions that
do not come true thus,
buy deduction, the
semiconservative
model must be true.

Stages of Replication
Replication can be divided into three stages:
1 Initiation - When DNA is initially split into two
strands and polymerization of new DNA is started
2 Elongation - When DNA is polymerized
3 Termination - When the new strands of DNA are
completed and some finishing touches may be put
on the DNA
 Both elongation and termination may involve
proofreading of the DNA ensuring that mutations
are not incorporated into newly formed DNA
strands


Tools of Replication
 Enzymes
are the tools of replication:
 DNA Polymerase - Matches the
correct nucleotides then joins adjacent
nucleotides to each other
 Primase - Provides an RNA primer to
start polymerization
 Ligase - Joins adjacent DNA strands
together (fixes “nicks”)
©2000 Timothy G. Standish
More Tools of Replication
 Helicase
- Unwinds the DNA and melts it
 Single-Strand Binding Proteins - Keep
the DNA single stranded after it has been
melted by helicase
 Gyrase - A topisomerase that relieves
torsional strain in the DNA molecule
 Telomerase - Finishes off the ends of
DNA strands
©2000 Timothy G. Standish
Initiation
 Initiation
starts at specific DNA sequences
called origins (Ori C = origin in E. coli
chromosomes)
 Long linear chromosomes have many origins
 First the origin melts (splits into two single
strands of DNA)
 Next primers are added
 Finally DNA polymerase recognizes the
primers and starts to polymerize DNA 5’ to 3’
away from the primers
