2 Regents Biology Nucleic Acids Information storage

3 Regents Biology Nucleic Acid Functions  Function #1:  stores genetic material  genes DNA proteins  Function #2:  transfer genetic material

4 Regents Biology Nucleic Acids Only 2 Types of Nucleic Acids:  DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid)  RNA (Ribonucleic Acid)

5 Regents Biology Nucleic Acids are made from Nucleotides  3 parts to every nucleotide:  nitrogen base  pentose sugar (5C)  ribose in RNA  deoxyribose in DNA  Phosphate group (PO 4 )

6 Regents Biology  5 different nucleotides  different nitrogen bases  adenine  thymine  cytosine  guanine  uracil nucleotide – nucleotide – nucleotide – nucleotide phosphate sugar N base Nitrogen bases I’m the A,T,C,G or U part! Nucleic Acids are made from Nucleotides

7 Regents Biology phosphate sugar N base phosphate sugar N base phosphate sugar N base phosphate sugar N base  2 strands of DNA helix are complementary  A – T and G – C Nucleic Acid polymer

8 Regents Biology That’s a big DNA molecule! Any questions?
