History of DNA• Early scientists thoughtprotein was the cell’shereditary material becauseit was more complex thanDNA
• Proteins were composed of20 different amino acids inlong polypeptide chains

4
Transformation• Fred Griffith worked withvirulent S and nonvirulent Rstrain Pneumoccocus bacteria
• He found that R strain couldbecome virulent when it took inDNA from heat-killed S strain
• Study suggested that DNA wasprobably the genetic material

History of DNA• Chromosomes are madeof both DNA andprotein
• Experiments onbacteriophage virusesby Hershey & Chaseproved that DNA wasthe cell’s geneticmaterial

Discovery of DNAStructure
• Erwin Chargaff showed theamounts of the four bases onDNA ( A,T,C,G)
• In a body or somatic cell:A = 30.3%T = 30.3%G = 19.5%C = 19.9%

8
Chargaff’s Rule• Adenine must pair withThymine
• Guanine must pair withCytosine
• The bases form weakhydrogen bonds

DNA Structure• Rosalind Franklin tookdiffraction x-rayphotographs of DNAcrystals
• In the 1950’s, Watson &Crick built the first modelof DNA using Franklin’sx-rays

DNA• Two strands coiled calleda double helix
• Sides made of a pentosesugar Deoxyribose bondedto phosphate (PO4) groupsby phosphodiester bonds
• Center made of nitrogenbases bonded together byweak hydrogen bonds

Helix• Most DNA has a right-handtwist with 10 base pairs in acomplete turn
• Left twisted DNA is calledZ-DNA or southpaw DNA
• Hot spots occur where rightand left twisted DNA meetproducing mutations

DNA• Stands forDeoxyribonucleic acid
• Made up of subunitscalled nucleotides
• Nucleotide made of:1. Phosphate group2. 5-carbon sugar3. Nitrogenous base

Antiparallel Strands• One strand of
DNA goes from5’ to 3’ (sugars)
• The otherstrand isopposite indirection going3’ to 5’ (sugars)

Nitrogenous Bases• Double ring PURINES
Adenine (A)Guanine (G)
• Single ring PYRIMIDINESThymine (T)Cytosine (C) T or C

Base-Pairings• Purines only pair withPyrimidines
• Three hydrogen bondsrequired to bond Guanine& Cytosine

3 H-bonds

•Two hydrogen bonds arerequired to bond Adenine &Thymine

Question:
• If there is 30%Adenine, how muchCytosine is present?
copyright cmassengale
24
Answer:• There would be 20%Cytosine
• Adenine (30%) = Thymine(30%)
• Guanine (20%) = Cytosine(20%)
• Therefore, 60% A-T and40% C-G

Replication Facts• DNA has to be copiedbefore a cell divides
• DNA is copied during the Sor synthesis phase ofinterphase
• New cells will need identicalDNA strands
copyright cmassengale
27
Synthesis Phase (S phase)• S phase during interphase of the
cell cycle• Nucleus of eukaryotes

DNA replication takesplace in the S phase.

DNA Replication• Begins at Origins of Replication• Two strands open forming Replication
Forks (Y-shaped region)• New strands grow at the forks

DNA Replication• As the 2 DNA strands open at
the origin, Replication Bubblesform
• Prokaryotes (bacteria) have asingle bubble
• Eukaryotic chromosomes haveMANY bubbles

DNA Replication• Enzyme Helicase unwindsand separates the 2 DNAstrands by breaking theweak hydrogen bonds
• Single-Strand BindingProteins attach and keepthe 2 DNA strandsseparated and untwisted

DNA Replication• Enzyme Topoisomerase attachesto the 2 forks of the bubble torelieve stress on the DNAmolecule as it separatesEnzyme

DNA Replication• Before new DNA strands can
form, there must be RNAprimers present to start theaddition of new nucleotides
• Primase is the enzyme thatsynthesizes the RNA Primer
• DNA polymerase can then addthe new nucleotides
copyright cmassengale
33copyright cmassengale
34
DNA Replication• DNA polymerase can only addnucleotides to the 3’ end of theDNA
• This causes the NEW strand to bebuilt in a 5’ to 3’ direction

• This strand is made in MANY short segmentsIt is replicated from the replication forktoward the origin

Proofreading New DNA
• DNA polymerase initially makesabout 1 in 10,000 base pairingerrors
• Enzymes proofread and correctthese mistakes
• The new error rate for DNA thathas been proofread is 1 in 1 billionbase pairing errors
copyright cmassengale
43
Semiconservative Model ofReplication
• Idea presented by Watson & Crick• The two strands of the parental
molecule separate, and each acts as atemplate for a new complementarystrand
• New DNA consists of 1PARENTAL (original) and 1 NEWstrand of DNA

DNA Damage & Repair• Chemicals & ultraviolet radiation
damage the DNA in our body cells• Cells must continuously repair
DAMAGED DNA• Excision repair occurs when any of
over 50 repair enzymes removedamaged parts of DNA
• DNA polymerase and DNA ligasereplace and bond the new nucleotidestogether
