The History of DNAIn 1953, Watson & Crick
used theX-ray diffraction pictures
made by Franklin to determine the structure of DNA & build a model of its
structure.

DNA: deoxyribonucleic acid, controls the production of
proteins in the cell.
DNA & RNA are bothpolymers
The repeating subunits of DNA
& RNA

A phosphate
group
A 5 carbon sugar called deoxyribose.
A nitrogen base
![Page 6: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The sugar and the
phosphate groups form
the backbone of the DNA molecule
![Page 7: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

DNA looks like a twisted
ladder. The sides of the ladder are
made of sugar & phosphate.
![Page 9: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The “rungs” of the ladder are
bonded pairs of nitrogen bases. The bases are
bonded together by
weak hydrogen bonds.

In RNA only!

The bases on one strand of the DNA molecule are the exact
compliment of the bases on the other strand. Thus, they are
called complimentary strands.

1. Replication begins when the enzyme DNA HELICASE attaches to the DNA molecule
2. DNA helicase unzips the DNA by breaking the hydrogen bonds between the bases.
![Page 22: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
3. The DNA is separated into 2 strands.
4. The unpaired bases on each strand attract the unpaired complimentary bases that float around in the nucleus.
5. They then form new hydrogen bonds.
![Page 23: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
6. Two new DNA molecules result from replication, with the EXACT same code.
7. Each is one half of the ORIGINAL DNA double helix.
![Page 24: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
1. Replication occurs at MANY points of the DNA molecule at once.
A. If not, it would take 3 days
for one DNA molecule to replicate.
B. This way, it only takes 3 minutes to replicate.
![Page 25: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
DNA contains the information to MAKE proteins but does not actually make it – RNA
does….
![Page 26: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Look… no T’sThey are replaced
by U’s
Notice… only one strand…not two like DNA – not a double
helix.
![Page 27: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
RNA’s sugar is RIBOSE, not
deoxyribose like DNA
![Page 28: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
![Page 29: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
mRNA – MESSENGER RNA is a single strand of RNA that copies DNA information during protein
synthesis.
It serves as a TEMPLATE for assembling amino acid
sequences to make proteins.
![Page 30: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
tRNA – TRANSFER RNA is a single strand of RNA that is folded back on itself like a
hairpin.
There are 20 forms of tRNA that correspond to each of the 20 amino acids which bind to
them.
![Page 31: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
rRNA – RIBOSOMAL RNA, is RNA in a globular form. They
are ribosomes!Total function is unknown…….
![Page 32: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
•Is the formation of protein using the information coded on DNA and carried out by RNA
•Protein synthesis has 2 parts: transcription & translation
![Page 33: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

To transcribe means to COPY or to write something down.RNA is transcribed from DNA
through this process…..
![Page 35: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
![Page 36: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
1. First, the enzyme RNA POLYMERASE opens up the
DNA molecule.
2. Next, RNA polymerase attaches RNA bases floating around in the nucleus to the
DNA bases.
![Page 37: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
3. The transcription process stops when a termination CODE is reached on the DNA molecule.
4. RNA is then released & the DNA closes back up……..
![Page 38: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
•All three types of RNA are made this way.
•RNA then leaves the NUCLEUS and enters the cytoplasm.
•joins up with RIBOSOMES and proteins are made.
![Page 39: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
•The GENETIC code is the system that contains information needed by cells for proper functioning.
•A CODON is a group of 3 sequential mRNA bases that recognize a specific amino acid
![Page 40: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
![Page 41: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
•Codons are UNIVERSAL.•Every organism has the same genetic code for proteins………
•For example, UUU is the codon for the amino acid phenylalanine in
mice, men, & bacteria.
![Page 42: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
![Page 43: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Amino acids must be in the proper sequence for proteins to
function properly.
The number of different kinds of proteins varies with the
COMPLEXITY of an organism.
![Page 44: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
![Page 45: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
1. MRNA enters the cytoplasm from the nucleus and finds a ribosome to hook up with.
2. tRNA’s then bring specific amino acids to the ribosomes.
![Page 46: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
3. The ribosome attaches to an AUG (start codon) on
mRNA.
4. TRNA attaches itself to the mRNA and passes its amino
acid off to the growing protein chain.
![Page 47: DNA & RNA](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568161cb550346895dd1b387/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
5. TRNA leaves and another tRNA takes its place with a
new amino acid.
This process continues until a STOP codon is reached and
the protein chain is complete and falls off.
