AP Biology Exam: Monday, February 22, 2016 Information- Part 1 Study Guide Enduring understanding 3.A: Heritable information provides for continuity of life. Essential knowledge 3.A.1: DNA, and in some cases RNA, is the primary source of heritable information. DNA Replication- Genetic information is transmitted from one generation to the next through DNA or RNA. 1. DNA in prokaryotes vs. eukaryotes 3. DNA replication ensures continuity of hereditary information. a. Semiconservative Replication 2. The proof that DNA is the carrier of genetic information involved a number of important b. DNA polymerase historical experiments. Make sure you c. Ligase understand the contributions of… d. RNA polymerase a. Watson, Crick, Wilkins, and Franklin on e. helicase the structure of DNA f. topoisomerase g. Leading strand h. Lagging strand b. Avery-MacLeod-McCarty experiments c. Hershey-Chase experiment DNA & RNA- DNA and RNA molecules have structural similarities and differences that define function. 1. Both have three components 3. Base Pairing a. Purines & structure b. Pyrimidines & structure 2. Basic structural differences include: 4. The sequence of the RNA bases, together with the structure of the RNA molecule, determines RNA function. a. mRNA b. tRNA c. rRNA Gene Expression: The Central Dogma- Genetic information flows from a sequence of nucleotides in a gene to a sequence of amino acids in a protein. Transcription 1. Location 2. What happens? 3. Enzymes 4. In eukaryotic cells the mRNA transcript undergoes a series of enzyme-regulated modifications including... Translation a. Location b. What happens? a. Initiation b. Elongation c. c. Termination Enzymes d. Other important terms: tRNA, mRNA, ribosomes, codon, amino acid, polypeptide, genetic code e. In prokaryotic organisms, transcription is coupled to translation of the message. Proteins- Phenotypes are determined through protein activities. Enzymatic reactions Transport by proteins Synthesis Degradation Biotechnology -Genetic engineering techniques can manipulate the heritable information of DNA and, in special cases, RNA. Electrophoresis Restriction enzyme analysis of DNA Plasmid-based transformation Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) -Genetic engineering products Genetically modified foods Cloned animals Transgenic animals Pharmaceuticals, such as human insulin or factor X Make sure you can... construct scientific explanations that use the structures and mechanisms of DNA and RNA to support the claim that DNA and, in some cases, that RNA are the primary sources of heritable information. justify the selection of data from historical investigations that support the claim that DNA is the source of heritable information. describe representations and models that illustrate how genetic information is copied for transmission between generations. describe representations and models illustrating how genetic information is translated into polypeptides. can justify the claim that humans can manipulate heritable information by identifying at least two commonly used technologies. predict how a change in a specific DNA or RNA sequence can result in changes in gene expression. EU 3.C: The processing of genetic information is imperfect and is a source of genetic variation. EK 3.C.1: Changes in genotype can result in changes in phenotype. Mutations 1. What is a mutation? 3. What are the potential effects of a mutation in DNA? Think about types of mutations and what happens as a result. 2. What can cause mutations? 4. What determines whether a mutation is detrimental, beneficial or neutral? Mutations are the primary source of _________________________________________. Changes in genotype may affect phenotypes that are subject to natural selection. Genetic changes that enhance survival and reproduction can be selected by environmental conditions. Be familiar with these examples: Antibiotic resistance mutations Pesticide resistance mutations Sickle cell disorder and heterozygote advantage Make sure you can... predict how a change in genotype, when expressed as a phenotype, provides a variation that can be subject to natural selection. create a visual representation to illustrate how changes in a DNA nucleotide sequence can result in a change in the polypeptide produced. explain the connection between genetic variations in organisms and phenotypic variations in populations. Viruses EK 3.C.3: Viral replication results in genetic variation, and viral infection can introduce genetic variation into the hosts. 1. Viral replication differs from other reproductive strategies and generates genetic variation via various mechanisms. (A) Viruses have highly efficient replicative capabilities that allow for rapid evolution and acquisition of new phenotypes. (B) Viruses replicate via a component assembly model allowing one virus to produce many progeny simultaneously via the lytic cycle. (C) Virus replication allows for mutations to occur through usual host pathways. (D) RNA viruses lack replication error-checking mechanisms, and thus have higher rates of mutation. (E) Related viruses can combine/recombine information if they infect the same host cell. (F) Genetic information in retroviruses is a special case and has an alternate flow of information: from RNA to DNA, made possible by reverse transcriptase, an enzyme that copies the viral RNA genome into DNA. This DNA integrates into the host genome and becomes transcribed and translated for the assembly of new viral progeny. (G) HIV is a well-studied system where the rapid evolution of a virus within the host contributes to the pathogenicity of viral infection. 2. The reproductive cycles of viruses facilitate transfer of genetic information. (A) Viruses transmit DNA or RNA when they infect a host cell i) Transduction in bacteria ii) Transposons present in incoming DNA (B) Some viruses are able to integrate into the host DNA and establish a latent (lysogenic) infection. These latent viral genomes can result in new properties for the host such as increased pathogenicity in bacteria. Make sure you can… construct an explanation of how viruses introduce genetic variation in host organisms. use representations and appropriate models to describe how viral replication introduces genetic variation in the viral population.
