Chapter 6 DNA Structure and Function
![Page 2: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
6.1 A Hero Dog’s Golden Clones
Trakr, the search dog that located the final survivor of the 9/11 attacks, later died of toxic exposure
Trakr’s DNA lives on in his genetic copies (clones)
To make a clone from an adult cell, researchers must reprogram its DNA to function like the DNA of an egg
Cloning mammals is unpredictable; few implanted embryos result in a live birth, and many have serious health problems

6.2 Chromosomes
Each DNA molecule consists of two strands twisted into a double helix
In cells, DNA molecules and their associated proteins are organized into chromosomes
DNA wraps around “spools” of proteins called histones that allow chromosomes to pack tightly

Chromosome Structure
When the cell prepares to divide, it duplicates all of its chromosomes
Sister chromatid One of two attached members of a duplicated eukaryotic
chromosome
Centromere Constricted region in a eukaryotic chromosome where
sister chromatids are attached

Chromosome Number
A eukaryotic cell’s DNA is divided into a characteristic number of chromosomes
Chromosome number Sum of all chromosomes in a cell of a given type A human body cell has 46 chromosomes
Diploid Cells having two of each type of chromosome
characteristic of the species (2n)

Two Types of Eukaryotic Chromosomes
Autosomes Paired chromosomes with the same length, shape,
centromere location, and genes Any chromosome other than a sex chromosome
Sex chromosomes Members of a pair of chromosomes that differ between
males and females In humans, XY and XX

Discovering DNA Structure
Erwin Chargaff Discovered the relationships between DNA bases
Rosalind Franklin Discovered structure of DNA by x-ray crystallography
Maurice Wilkins Experimental evidence of DNA structure
James Watson and Francis Crick Built the first accurate model of a DNA molecule
![Page 22: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Chargaff’s Rules
Two double-helix strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between nucleotide bases
Chargaff’s rules Bases of the two DNA strands in a double helix pair in a
consistent way: A – T and C – G Proportions of A and G vary among species
![Page 23: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

The Double Helix
Watson and Crick proposed that DNA consists of two strands of nucleotides, running in opposite directions, coiled into a double helix
Hydrogen bonds between bases hold the two strands together
Only two kinds of base pairings form: A to T, and G to C (Chargaff’s rule)
![Page 26: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

DNA’s Base-Pair Sequence
The order of nucleotide bases in a DNA strand (DNA sequence) is genetic information
The order of bases varies among species and among individuals
The two strands of a DNA molecule are complementary

6.4 DNA Replication and Repair
DNA replication Process by which a cell copies its DNA before it divides Each strand of the double helix serves as a template for
synthesis of a new, complementary strand of DNA Results in two double-stranded DNA molecules identical to
the parent
Semiconservative replication One strand of each molecule is parental (old), and the
other is new
![Page 32: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
DNA Replication and Repair
During DNA replication, the double-helix unwinds
DNA polymerase uses each strand as a template to assemble new, complementary strands of DNA from free nucleotides
Each type of DNA polymerase requires a primer in order to initiate DNA synthesis
DNA ligase seals any gaps to form a continuous strand
![Page 33: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
DNA Replication and Repair
DNA polymerase DNA replication enzyme; assembles a new strand of DNA
based on sequence of a DNA template
Primer Short, single strand of DNA that base-pairs with a targeted
DNA sequence
DNA ligase Enzyme that seals breaks in double-stranded DNA

How Mutations Arise
Proofreading by DNA polymerase corrects most base-pairing errors during DNA replication
Uncorrected errors in DNA replication may become mutations
Mutation A permanent change in DNA sequence
![Page 36: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
How Mutations Arise
Ionizing radiation (x-rays, most UV light, and gamma rays) can knock electrons out of atoms, breaking DNA
Non ionizing radiation (UV light 320–380 nm) forms nucleotide dimers that kink DNA and increase mutation rate
Chemicals in tobacco smoke transfer methyl groups (CH3) to nucleotide bases in DNA, causing mispairs during replication
Breakdown products of many environmental pollutants bind irreversibly to DNA, causing replication errors
![Page 37: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Effects of Ionizing Radiation
A) Major breaks (red arrows) in chromosomes of a human white blood cell after exposure to ionizing radiation. Pieces of broken chromosomes often become lost during DNA replication.

6.5 Cloning Adult Animals
Reproductive cloning Technology that produces an exact genetic copy of an
individual (clone)
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) Nuclear DNA from an adult somatic cell is transferred into
an unfertilized, enucleated egg Common in livestock breeding
![Page 43: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Digging into Data:The Hershey Chase Experiments
Virus coat proteins labeled with 35S
35S remains outside cells
DNA being injected into bacterium
A) In one experiment, bacteria were infected with virus particles that had been labeled with a radioisotope of sulfur (35S). The sulfur had labeled only viral proteins. The viruses were dislodged from the bacteria by whirling the mixture in a kitchen blender. Most of the radioactive sulfur was detected in the viruses, not in the bacterial cells. Thus, the viruses had not injected protein into the bacteria.
![Page 53: Chapter6](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58eddb971a28ab372c8b45ab/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Hershey Chase Experiments
Virus DNA labeled with 32P
Labeled DNA being injected into bacterium
32P remains inside cells
B) In another experiment, bacteria were infected with virus particles that had been labeled with a radioisotope of phosphorus (32P). The phosphorus had labeled only viral DNA. When the viruses were dislodged from the bacteria, the radioactive phosphorus was detected mainly inside the bacterial cells. Thus, the viruses had injected DNA into the cells—evidence that DNA is the genetic material of this virus.
