DNA has 3 functions: Storing information Copying information Transmitting information
12.1 The Role of DNA

DNA – deoxyribonucleic acid Nucleotides – monomers that make up
a DNA molecule 3 parts:
5 Carbon sugar (deoxyribose) Phosphate group Nitrogenous base
Adenine (A) Guanine (G) Cytosine (C) Thymine (T)

Rosiland Franklin used X-ray diffraction to visualize DNA structure (1952).

Watson and Crick were the first to model DNA as a double helix in 1953.

All the previous discoveries show us the structure of DNA and how DNA can function as a carrier of genetic information.

If the sequence of bases on one strand of a DNA molecule is TCGAACTGA, the sequence on the other (complimentary) strand is:

Why does DNA replicate?(Hint: Think back to Mitosis) DNA is replicated in the S phase of the cell
cycle, before the cell divides.
12.3 DNA Replication
![Page 11: Notes ch12 DNA](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062303/555d1048d8b42ab2228b4863/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Step 1 The DNA double helix
unwinds DNA helicase
(enzyme). breaks the H bonds
between the bases. The areas where the
double helix separates are called replication forks.
Copying the Code

Step 2 DNA polymerase (enzyme)
moves along each DNA strand adding complimentary bases according to the base pairing rules.
DNA polymerase also proofreads the DNA molecule to reduce errors.

Step 3 The process continues
until all of the DNA has been copied.
DNA polymerase detaches.

This process produces two DNA molecules each composed of one new and one original strand.
Both DNA molecules produced are identical to each other.
DNA replication takes place at many points on a eukaryotic chromosome. Allows replication to happen more quickly.
