Molecular Genetics Section 1: DNA: The Genetic Material Section 2: Replication of DNA Section 3: DNA, RNA, and Protein Section 4: Gene Regulation and Mutation Click on a lesson name to select. Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material I. DNA discoveries A. Griffith Performed the first major experiment that led to the discovery of DNA as the genetic material Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material B. Avery Identified the molecule that transformed the R strain of bacteria into the S strain Concluded that when the S cells were killed, DNA was released R bacteria incorporated this DNA into their cells and changed into S cells. Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material C. Hershey and Chase Used radioactive labeling to trace the DNA and protein Concluded that the viral DNA was injected into the cell and provided the genetic information needed to produce new viruses Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material II. DNA Structure A. Nucleotides Consist of a five-carbon sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (Know shapes of the rings!) • Bases will “base pair” with their appropriate match to form double strands. Purines will pair with pyridimines. • *A pairs with T G pairs with C Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material B. Chargaff Chargaff’s rule: C = G and T = A Each base combination codes for amino acids. • *The “code” is universal because all living organisms share the same code. • *it is degenerative because more than one set of 3 codes for the same amino acid Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material C. X-ray Diffraction X-ray diffraction data helped solve the structure of DNA Watson and Crick used Rosalind Franklins data along with chargaff’s rules to determine the shape Indicated that DNA was a double helix Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material Watson and Crick Built a model of the double helix that conformed to the others’ research 1. two outside strands consist of alternating deoxyribose and phosphate 2. cytosine and guanine bases pair to each other by three hydrogen bonds 3. thymine and adenine bases pair to each other by two hydrogen bonds Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material D. DNA Structure DNA often is compared to a twisted ladder. Rails of the ladder are represented by the alternating deoxyribose and phosphate. The pairs of bases (cytosine–guanine or thymine–adenine) form the steps. Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material Orientation On the top rail, the strand is said to be oriented 5′ to 3′. The strand on the bottom runs in the opposite direction and is oriented 3′ to 5′. Section 1 Molecular Genetics DNA: The Genetic Material III. Chromosome Structure In prokaryotes, DNA in cytoplasm. In eukaryotes: DNA coils around histones to form nucleosomes, which coil to form chromatin fibers. The chromatin fibers supercoil to form chromosomes that are visible in the metaphase stage of mitosis. – Come up with a 15 base single strand of DNA for your partner to complete for tomorrows prework. – Complete p. 332 1-5 Chapter Molecular Genetics Section 1 Formative Questions The experiments of Avery, Hershey and Chase provided evidence that the carrier of genetic information is _______.

DNA and protein C. DNA and lipids D. protein and centromeres 1. 2. 3. 4. A B C D Section 2 Molecular Genetics Replication of DNA I. Semiconservative Replication Parental strands of DNA separate, serve as templates, and produce DNA molecules that have one strand of parental DNA and one strand of new DNA. Section 2 Molecular Genetics Replication of DNA II. Unwinding (Process and the enzymes) 1. DNA helicase, an enzyme, is responsible for unwinding and unzipping the double helix. 2. RNA primase adds a short segment of RNA, called an RNA primer, on each DNA strand. Section 2 Molecular Genetics 3. DNA polymerase continues adding appropriate nucleotides (in base pairs)to the chain by adding to the 3′ end of the new DNA strand. Section 2 Molecular Genetics Replication of DNA One strand is called the leading strand and is elongated as the DNA unwinds. The other strand of DNA, called the lagging strand, elongates away from the replication fork. The lagging strand is synthesized discontinuously into small segments, called Okazaki fragments. Section 2 Molecular Genetics Replication of DNA Joining DNA polymerase removes the RNA primer and fills in the place with DNA nucleotides. 4. DNA ligase links the two sections. Section 2 Molecular Genetics Replication of DNA III. Comparing DNA Replication in Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes Eukaryotic DNA unwinds in multiple areas as DNA is replicated. In prokaryotes, the circular DNA strand is opened at one origin of replication.

A B C D Section 3 Molecular Genetics DNA, RNA, and Protein I. Central Dogma (DNA->RNA->protein) A. RNA Contains the sugar ribose and the base uracil instead of thymine Usually is single stranded Sugar=ribose Section 3 Molecular Genetics II. Types of RNA A. Messenger RNA (mRNA) Long strands of RNA nucleotides that are formed complementary to one strand of DNA B. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) Associates with proteins to form ribosomes in the cytoplasm C. Transfer RNA (tRNA) Smaller segments of RNA nucleotides that transport amino acids to the ribosome Section 3 Molecular Genetics DNA, RNA, and Protein III. Transcription (A. The process) Through transcription, the DNA code is transferred to mRNA in the nucleus. DNA is unzipped in the nucleus and RNA polymerase binds to a specific section where an mRNA will be synthesized. Section 3 Molecular Genetics DNA, RNA, and Protein B. RNA Processing (components) The code on the DNA is interrupted periodically by sequences that are not in the final mRNA. Intervening sequences are called introns. Remaining pieces of DNA that serve as the coding sequences are called exons. DNA and Genes Section 3 Molecular Genetics DNA, RNA, and Protein IV. The Code A. Characteristics 1. universal 2. unambiguous (no repeats of codons) 3. degenerate-repeats of amino acids – B. Codons • Groups of 3 bases on the mRNA strand that “code” for amino acids. These are used in translation (next step) • C. AUG=start codon – 3 stop codons Section 3 Molecular Genetics DNA, RNA, and Protein V. Translation (mRNA->protein) In translation, tRNA molecules act as the interpreters of the mRNA codon sequence. At the middle of the folded strand, there is a three-base coding sequence called the anticodon. Each anticodon is complementary to a codon on the mRNA. Section 3 Molecular Genetics DNA, RNA, and Protein • Location: ribosome (out in the cytoplasm) • A. 5’ end of mRNA connects to ribosome • B. tRNA brings the aa’s where the anticodon scans the mRNA (anticodon 3’->5’) • C. Ribosome attach sites EPA 1. Exit site-used tRNA’s leave 2. P (park) site-place of attachment 3. A site-waiting site • D. Bonds attach each neighboring aa • This creates a polypeptide chain (protein) • E. This continues until a stop codon is reached and then the ribosome subunits disassemble Section 3 Molecular Genetics DNA, RNA, and Protein Section 3 Molecular Genetics DNA, RNA, and Protein VI. One Gene—One Enzyme The Beadle and Tatum experiment showed that one gene codes for one enzyme. We now know that one gene codes for one polypeptide.

Eukaryote Gene Regulation Controlling transcription Transcription factors ensure that a gene is used at the right time and that proteins are made in the right amounts The complex structure of eukaryotic DNA also regulates transcription. Section 4 Molecular Genetics Gene Regulation and Mutation A. Hox Genes Hox genes are responsible for the general body pattern of most animals. Section 4 Molecular Genetics Gene Regulation and Mutation B. RNA Interference RNA interference can stop the mRNA from translating its message. Section 4 Molecular Genetics Gene Regulation and Mutation III. Mutations A permanent change that occurs in a cell’s DNA is called a mutation. Types of mutations Point mutations- 1 base pair change Substitutions-1 base exchanged for another 1. missense: type of substitution; codes for a different amino acid! 2. nonsense: changes aa codon to stop! Terminates translation early; protein functions abnormally! Mutations continued.. • Frameshift mutations: gain or loss of nucleotides (changes the multiples of 3)!! *most disastrous! Changes reading frame! Types: 1. insertion-addition 2. deletion-loss *everything will shift at the spot of the mutation because codons are groups of 3! Mutations cont • C. Chromosome pieces – Type: • Tandem repeats: increases the sequences on chromosomes Section 4 Molecular Genetics Gene Regulation and Mutation Section 4 Molecular Genetics Gene Regulation and Mutation Protein Folding and Stability-can change by mutations Substitutions also can lead to genetic disorders.
