THINK ABOUT IT
How do genes work?
To answer that question, the first thing you need to know is what genes are made of.
How would you go about figuring out what molecule or molecules go into making a gene?

Griffith’s Experiments
Griffith isolated two different strains of the same bacterial species. One was harmless, one caused disease.

Griffith’s Experiments
1.) Griffith took a culture of the S strain,
2.) Heated the cells to kill them
3.) Then injected the heat-killed bacteria into laboratory mice.
4.) The mice survived.

Griffith’s ExperimentsIn Griffith’s next experiment, he mixed the heat-killed, S-strain bacteria with live, harmless bacteria from the R strain and injected the mixture into laboratory mice.
The injected mice developed pneumonia, and many died.

Transformation
DNA transformed the good bacteria into disease-causing bacteria.

Transformation
He called this process transformation, because one type of bacteria had been changed permanently into another.

Oswald Avery
• Used enzymes to kill off proteins, lipids, carbs and RNA.
• Transformation still occurred.
• DNA was the transforming factor!

Bacterial Viruses
Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase
Hershey and Chase studied viruses—nonliving particles that can infect living cells.

Bacteriophages
The kind of virus that infects bacteria is known as a bacteriophage, which means “bacteria eater.”

The Hershey-Chase Experiment
Bacteriophage was composed of a DNA core and a protein coat.
They wanted to determine which part of the virus—the protein coat or the DNA core—entered the bacterial cell.

Nucleic Acids and Nucleotides
DNA’s nucleotides are made up of three basic components:
a 5-carbon sugar called deoxyribose
a phosphate group
and a nitrogenous base.
![Page 18: 12.1 Identifying the Substance of Genes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56812a9f550346895d8e614b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Nitrogenous Bases and Covalent Bonds
DNA has four kinds of nitrogenous bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T).
The nitrogenous bases stick out sideways from the nucleotide chain.
![Page 19: 12.1 Identifying the Substance of Genes](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56812a9f550346895d8e614b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Nitrogenous Bases and Covalent Bonds
The nucleotides can be joined together in any order, meaning that any sequence of bases is possible.

Chargaff’s Rules
Erwin Chargaff discovered that the percentages of adenine [A] and thymine [T] bases are almost EQUAL in any sample of DNA.
The same thing is true for the other two nucleotides, guanine [G] and cytosine [C].
The observation that [A] = [T] and [G] = [C] became known as one of “Chargaff’s rules.”

Franklin’s X-Rays
In the 1950s, British scientist Rosalind Franklin used X-ray diffraction.
X-ray diffraction revealed an X-shaped pattern showing that the strands in DNA are twisted around each other like the coils of a spring.

The Work of Watson and Crick
At the same time, James Watson, an American biologist, and Francis Crick, a British physicist, were also trying to understand the structure of DNA.
They built three-dimensional models of the molecule.

The Work of Watson and Crick
Early in 1953, Watson was shown a copy of Franklin’s X-ray pattern.
The clues in Franklin’s X-ray pattern enabled Watson and Crick to build a model that explained the specific structure and properties of DNA.

The Double-Helix Model
Common names for the structure of DNA:
- Double helix
- Twisted ladder
- Spiral staircase
The two strands of DNA are “antiparallel” — they run in opposite directions.

Hydrogen Bonding
Hydrogen bonds form between the nitrogenous bases
G – C has 3 hydrogen bonds.
A – T has 2 hydrogen bonds.
Hydrogen bonds are weak. Why is this important to DNA’s function?
DNA’s strands have to separate often!

THINK ABOUT IT
Before a cell divides, its DNA must first be copied.
How might the double-helix structure of DNA make that possible?

The Replication Process
Before a cell divides, it duplicates its DNA in a copying process called replication.

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.

- 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.
