Why do we study DNADNA?
We study DNA for many reasons, e.g.,
-its central importance to all life on Earth,
-medical benefits such as cures for diseases,
-better food crops.

DNADNA DNA is often called
the blueprint of life..
In simple terms, DNA contains the instructions for making proteins within the cell.
![Page 4: Mr. Coleman Biology DNA DNA Why do we study DNA? We study DNA for many reasons, e.g., -its central importance to all life on Earth, -medical benefits.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649ca75503460f949695c9/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Chromosomes and DNAChromosomes and DNAProteins are made from the blueprint that genes provide.
Genes are on chromosomes in the cell’s nucleus.
Chromosomes are made up of a chemical called DNA.

The Shape of the MoleculeThe Shape of the Molecule
DNA is a very long polymer.
The basic shape is like a twisted ladder or zipper.
This is called a double helix.
![Page 6: Mr. Coleman Biology DNA DNA Why do we study DNA? We study DNA for many reasons, e.g., -its central importance to all life on Earth, -medical benefits.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649ca75503460f949695c9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
In 1952 Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase performed an experiment using radioactively labeled viruses that infect bacteria.
These viruses were made of only protein and DNA.
A Little History of the Quest to Find the Carrier of Our Genetic Heritage
![Page 7: Mr. Coleman Biology DNA DNA Why do we study DNA? We study DNA for many reasons, e.g., -its central importance to all life on Earth, -medical benefits.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649ca75503460f949695c9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Hershey and Chase labeled the virus DNA with a radioactive isotope and the virus protein with a different isotope.
By following the infection of bacterial cells by the labeled viruses, they demonstrated that DNA, rather than protein, entered the cells and caused the bacteria to produce new viruses.
![Page 8: Mr. Coleman Biology DNA DNA Why do we study DNA? We study DNA for many reasons, e.g., -its central importance to all life on Earth, -medical benefits.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649ca75503460f949695c9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
In 1953, Rosalind Franklin first put forth the possibility of DNA having a double helixical shape. She based this on X-ray diffraction images of DNA crystals she had produced in the laboratory.
![Page 9: Mr. Coleman Biology DNA DNA Why do we study DNA? We study DNA for many reasons, e.g., -its central importance to all life on Earth, -medical benefits.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649ca75503460f949695c9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Also in 1953, Watson and Crick proposed that DNA is made of two chains of nucleotides held together by nitrogenous bases.
![Page 10: Mr. Coleman Biology DNA DNA Why do we study DNA? We study DNA for many reasons, e.g., -its central importance to all life on Earth, -medical benefits.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649ca75503460f949695c9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Watson and Crick proposed that DNA is shaped like a long zipper that is twisted into a coil like a spring.
Because DNA is composed of two strands twisted together, its shape is called double helix.
