7.1 Nucleic Acid (HL ONLY) Instructions: READ FOR UNDERSTANDING: Read Pages 343- 354 in your textbook. Define all the vocabulary words. Address all the understandings by provide examples/ diagrams/ explanations for each bullet point Address the nature of science and essential ideas using your new understandings. Address the Skills by answering the Data-Based Questions on page 344, 349, 353 o Check you answers to the data base questions using the answer key on Moodle. Define the vocabulary words below: Nucleosomes Histone Non-histone proteins Bacteriophage Base-pairing Pyrimidine Purines Single ring bases Double ring bases Hydrogen bonds Covalent bonds The 3’end The 5’end Phosphate group Antiparallel The human genome project Genes Nonsense DNA DNA profiling Satellite DNA Intron Exon DNA Profiling Watson & Crick Hersey & Chase Experiment Rosalind Franklin’s X-ray diffraction Essential idea: The structure of DNA is ideally suited to its function. Nature of science: Making careful observations—Rosalind Franklin’s X-ray diffraction provided crucial evidence that DNA is a double helix. (1.8) Understandings: • Nucleosomes help to supercoil the DNA. • DNA structure suggested a mechanism for DNA replication. • DNA polymerases can only add nucleotides to the 3’ end of a primer. • DNA replication is continuous on the leading strand and discontinuous on the lagging strand. • DNA replication is carried out by a complex system of enzymes. • Some regions of DNA do not code for proteins but have other important functions. Applications and skills: • Application: Rosalind Franklin’s and Maurice Wilkins’ investigation of DNA structure by X-ray diffraction. • Application: Use of nucleotides containing dideoxyribonucleic acid to stop DNA replication in preparation of samples for base sequencing. • Application: Tandem repeats are used in DNA profiling. • Skill: Analysis of results of the Hershey and Chase experiment providing evidence that DNA is the genetic material. Skill: Utilization of molecular visualization software to analyse the association between protein and DNA within a nucleosome. Guidance: • Details of DNA replication differ between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Only the prokaryotic system is expected. • The proteins and enzymes involved in DNA replication should include helicase, DNA gyrase, single strand binding proteins, DNA primase and DNA polymerases I and III. • The regions of DNA that do not code for proteins should be limited to regulators of gene expression, introns, telomeres and genes for tRNAs.
