PART 1 - DNA REPLICATION PART 2 - TRANSCRIPTION AND TRANSLATION DNA REPLICATION THE EUKARYOTIC CELL CYCLE – DNA REPLICATION HAS TO HAPPEN BEFORE THE CELL CAN DIVIDE SO BOTH CELLS HAVE DNA. THINK ABOUT IT Before a cell divides, its DNA must first be copied. How might the double-helix structure of DNA make that possible? If the sequence of one strand is known, the other strand is known A T C G G C T A T C G A T A G C C G A T AG C T DNA Replication DNA Replication The structure of DNA explains how it replicates DNA “unzips” down the middle Free floating nucleotides pair up with both sides of the DNA molecule A T C G A T A G C T Original AT TA CG GC AT A T C G A T A G C T AT TA CG GC AT Exactly Copied DNA Strands DNA Replication This process produces two exact DNA molecules (Chromosomes) that are the same DNA never leaves the nucleus The Role of Enzymes • How does this happen?? • DNA replication is carried out by a series of enzymes. • They first “unzip” a molecule of DNA by breaking the hydrogen bonds between base pairs. The Role of Enzymes • • - DNA Polymerase - DNA polymerase is an enzyme that joins individual nucleotides to produce a new strand of DNA. • - DNA polymerase also “proofreads” Replication in Living Cells – How does DNA replication differ in prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells? – Replication in most prokaryotic cells starts from a single point and proceeds in two directions until the entire chromosome is copied. Replication in Living Cells – How does DNA replication differ in prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells? • In eukaryotic cells, replication may begin at dozens or even hundreds of places on the DNA molecule, proceeding in both directions until each chromosome is completely copied. Lesson Overview Identifying the Substance of Genes Lesson Overview Identifying the Substance of Genes Transcription And Translation DNA Works as a Code Codon- a three nucleotide sequence that codes for a single amino acid With 4 different types of nucleotides in triplet codes, 64 combinations are possible a) 61 of the codons code for 20 amino acids b) 3 codons signal a stop- Identifies the end of a protein The genetic code is exact. If a sequence of DNA is known, the resulting amino acid chain (protein) is known Amino Acid DNA codons Serine TCT, TCC, TCA, TCG, AGT, AGC ATT, ATC, ATA Tyrosine TAT, TAC Leucine CTT, CTC, CTA, CTG, TTA, TTG Tryptophan TGG Valine GTT, GTC, GTA, GTG Glutamine CAA, CAG Phenylalan ine TTT, TTC Asparagine AAT, AAC Methionine ATG Histidine CAT, CAC Cysteine TGT, TGC Glutamic acid GAA, GAG GCT, GCC, GCA, GCG Aspartic acid GAT, GAC Isoleucine Alanine Glycine Proline Threonine GGT, GGC, GGA, GGG Lysine AAA, AAG CCT, CCC, CCA, CCG Arginine CGT, CGC, CGA, CGG, AGA, AGG ACT, ACC, ACA, ACG Stop codons TAA, TAG, TGA If DNA never leaves the nucleus, how can the DNA message get to the site of protein production, the ribosome? Answer: The DNA message is copied to RNA during the process of Transcription How do RNA and DNA differ? THE STRUCTURE OF RNA 1. RNA is single stranded 2. The sugar in RNA is Ribose, not deoxyribose as in DNA 3. The DNA nucleotide thymine is replaced by the RNA nucleotide Uracil Genetic Code with RNA Codons RNA’S FUNCTIONS: TWO TYPES, TWO JOBS 1. m-RNA (messenger RNA) delivers the copied DNA from the nucleus to the Ribosome- the site of protein synthesis 2. t-RNA (transfer RNA) picks up specific amino acids in the cytoplasm and delivers them to the ribosome STEPS IN PROTEIN SYNTHESIS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. DNA molecule unzip where the desired gene is located Free floating RNA nucleotides pair with the DNA strand forming m-RNA (Transcription) The m-RNA leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome A specific t-RNA delivers a specific amino acid to the ribosome (Translation) The m-RNA codon matches with the t-RNA anticodon bringing the amino acid into its proper place When the next amino acid is in place, the two are joined in a condensation reaction The process is repeated until a stop code is read and a complete protein is formed MUTATION- CHANGE IN THE GENETIC CODE 1. Gene Mutation or Point Mutation- a nucleotide base is added, subtracted or changed to produce a change in the amino acid sequence of a protein A change in a single base in the DNA strand will result in a change in the m-RNA strand and the resulting protein Normal Hemoglobin DNA RNA GGA CTC CTC CCU GAG GAG 5 Amino Acids 6 7 Proline Glutamic Acid Glutamic Acid Sickle Cell Hemoglobin GGA CAC CTC CCU GUG GAG Proline Valine Glutamic Acid CHROMOSOME MUTATIONINVOLVES A CHANGE IN MANY GENES a) Deletion- part of a chromosome is lost b) Inversion- part of a chromosome is flipped around c) Translocation- part of a chromosome is added to another chromosome Somatic & Germ Mutations a) Somatic mutations: change that occurs in body cells. Affects only the individual. Ie. cancer b) Germ Mutations- changed in the genetic code of gametes that will affect the individuals offspring Mutagens- substances capable of causing damage to DNA Most mutations are harmful FRAME SHIFT MUTATIONS A) An insertion or deletion that results in the reading frame being shifted. B) All codons following the mutation will be changed. C) Example: THE RED DOG ATE THE CAT HER EDD OGA TET HEC AT
