DNAi Timeline: A Scavenger Hunt Name: Hr: Go to www.dnai.org > Timeline Use the DNAi Timline to identify scientist, dates, events and facts. You may have to read a scientists biography, watch an interview, or work through an experiment to resolve the clue. Scientists to find: James Watson Francis Crick Craig Venter Gregor Mendel Frederick Meischer Frederick Griffith Rosalind Franklin Sydney Brenner Erwin Chargaff Fredrick Sanger Clues 1. It took him eight years and more than 10,000 pea plants to discover the laws of inheritance. ________________________________________ 2. He determined base pairing rules. A-T and G-C _______________________________________ 3. When did Drs. Watson and Crick and Wilkins receive the Nobel Prize in Physiolgoy or Medicine for solving the structure of DNA? _______________________________________ 4. J. Craig Venter’s Company, Celera Genomics, worked on this very important project. ________________________________________ 5. I first isolated DNA using pus collected from bandages at a local hospital. Since white blood cells are a major component of pus, they were my source of DNA. YUCK! _________________________________________ 6. Determined that mRNA carries the code from the DNA to ribosomes for protein production. ________________________________________ 7. By using X-Ray diffraction I was able to determine the twisting nature of a DNA molecule. My worked helped Watson and Crick solve the puzzle. ________________________________________ 8. Determined amino acid sequences in certain protein, like insulin. Won a 2 Nobel Prizes for his work. _________________________________________ 9. Determined that a factor in heat killed, disease causing bacteria can “transform” harmless bacteria into ones that cause disease. _________________________________________ ON THE BACK OF THIS SHEET CREATE A TIMELINE OF THESE MAJOR EVENTS.
