DNA and RNA
(Helix: Watson & Crick, 1953)
Approximately 3 billion base pairs in human genome
DNA & RNA
• DNA– Double stranded– Deoxyribose sugar– Purine Bases
• Adenine (A)• Guanine (G)
– Pyrimidine Bases• Cytosine (C)• *Thymine (T)
• RNA– Single stranded– Ribose sugar– Purine Bases
• Adenine (A)• Guanine (G)
– Pyrimidine Bases• Cytosine (C)• *Uracil (U)
9
Chargaff’s Rule
• Within a species the amount of guanine nearly equals the amount of cytosine (same for thymine and adenine)
• Purines bonds with pyrimidines – C = G & T = A
11
• The more similar the base pair amounts are between species, the more closely related they are
Watson and Crick
• Built a model of the double helix based on prior research– Two outside strands consist of
ALTERNATING deoxyribose and phosphate
– Cytosine and guanine pair by THREE hydrogen bonds
– Thymine and adenine pair by TWO hydrogen bonds
14
DNA Structure
• Nucleotides – make up DNA– Consist of deoxyribose, a phosphate
group, and nitrogenous bases
16
NUCLEOTIDES
17
NUCLEOTIDES
• DNA looks like a twisted ladder• Rails are represented by the
alternating deoxyribose and phosphate groups
• Base pairs, C – G & A – T, form the steps
DNA Orientation
• Top rail: strand runs 5’ to 3’• Bottom rail: strand runs 3’ to 5’
Chromosome Structure
• To fit in a cell DNA must coil– DNA coils to form nucleosomes– Nucleosomes coil to form chromatin– Chromatin coil to form chromosomes
• NucleotideDNAnucleosomechromatinchromosome

his research?3 - Describe how DNA can fit into a
cell
Section 2
Replication of DNA
Semiconservative Replication
• The purpose of replication is to copy the DNA for mitosis.
• Parental strands of DNA separate, serve as templates
• Produce DNA that have one strand of parental DNA and one strand of new DNA
3 Steps of Replication
• 1. UNWINDING• DNA double helix
unwinds and unzips (thanks to DNA helicase) creating two strands.
• 1. LEADING strand is elongated
• 2. LAGGING strand elongates away from the replication fork
3 Steps of Replication
• 2. BASE PAIRING– Appropriate bases are added to the
chain in the 3’ to 5’ direction.» LEADING strand is replicated
continuously» LAGGING strand is replicated in
segments called Okazaki fragments
• 3. JOINING– The Okazaki fragments must be joined
together to complete the strand
Example Problem 1:
Write the complimentary strand for the following set of bases:
5’ ATTAACGCGTAGGCCAATCC 3’
3’ TAATTGCGCATCCGGTTAGG 5’Complimentary Strand
Example Problem 2:Parental Strand:5’ ATTGTGCCGTTAACGGTGC 3’

2. When looking at DNA nucleotides, which part of the nucleotide determines our genetic makeup?
3. How many chromosomes are created with one DNA molecule?
4. What are the four nitrogenous bases?
12.3 Vocabulary
1. RNA2. messenger RNA (mRNA)3. ribosomal RNA (rRNA)4. transfer RNA (tRNA)5. Transcription6. RNA Polymerase7. Codon8. Translation
Section 3
DNA, RNA, and Protein
Remember That…
• RNA– Single stranded– Has base Uracil (U) instead of thymine
(T) (DNA)– Contains Ribose sugar instead of
deoxyribose (DNA)
3 Types of RNA
• 1. Messenger RNA (mRNA)– Long strands– Formed complimentary to one strand
of DNA– Travels from nucleus to ribosome
• 2. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)– Makes ribosomes (associates with
protein synthesis)
• 3. Transfer RNA (tRNA)– Smaller segments carrying an
anticodon and an amino acid– Transported to the ribosome– Matched up with mRNA
RNA
Transcription (Process of transferring DNA code to mRNA)
• Occurs in the NUCLEUS• DNA is unzipped (RNA Polymerase),
RNA binds to a SPECIFIC section, and mRNA is synthesized
• DNA code is copied complementary as mRNA
• The code of DNA or mRNA is in segments of three bases called a CODON.
Translation (at a ribosome)
• mRNA moves from the nucleus through the cytoplasm to a ribosome
• mRNA binds to a ribosome• mRNA moves through the ribosome where
the codons are matched up with tRNA’s ANTICODON – compliment to codon.
• tRNA acts as an interpreter of the mRNA CODON sequence.
• As mRNA and tRNA come together an amino acid chain is formed.
• Amino acids fold to form proteins.
The CODE
• Each codon codes for a specific amino acid.
• “Dictionary” of genetic code• AUG – start codon• Pg. 338
The Purpose of Transcription/Translation
• DNA mRNA ribosome tRNA amino acid protein
• Proteins are expressed as the heritable characteristics of an organism.

Section 4
Gene Regulation and Mutation
Gene Regulation
• Ensures that:– Genes are used at the right time– proteins are made in the right
amounts• Some proteins help control gene
expression• Gene regulation is crucial during
development
Mutations
• Permanent change in a cell’s DNA• Three examples:
– Point mutations– Insertion– Deletion
Point Mutation
• Point mutation – chemical change in just one base pair– Substitution – one base is exchanged
for another• Types of substitutions
– Missense – DNA code is altered so that it codes for the wrong amino acid
– Nonsense – causes translation to end early
Insertion and Deletion
• Frame Shift – change the multiple of three codons. This shifts the “frame” of the amino acid sequence.– Insertions – additions of a nucleotide
to the DNA sequence– Deletion – loss of a nucleotide to the
DNA sequence
Mutations can cause diseases and disorders
Cause and Effect of Mutations
• Causes of mutations:– X-rays– Gamma rays– UV– Radiation– Toxic chemicals
• Nicotine
*Can occur spontaneously
• Effects of mutations:– Alters proteins– Affects chemical reactions in the body– Structural development– Cancer
Body Cells vs. Sex Cells
• Somatic cells (body cells)– Mutations are not passed on to the
next generation– They participate in mitosis
• Sex cells (gametes)– Mutations are passed on to the next
generation – Mutation will then be present in every
cell (somatic and sex) of the offspring

• 1. Provide 3 examples that cause mutations. • 2. What is the difference between mutations
in body cells and sex cells?• 3. If DNA were exposed to large amounts of
