5 Chapter 12: DNA and RNA

6 12-1: Discovering DNA Frederick Griffith (1928) Frederick Griffith (1928) Worked to find better ways to fight pneumonia Worked to find better ways to fight pneumonia Smooth (S) deadly form Smooth (S) deadly form Rough (R) nondeadly form Rough (R) nondeadly form

7 Griffith’s Experiment Injected mice with… Injected mice with… R-strain: Nonvirulent R-strain: Nonvirulent S-strain: Virulent S-strain: Virulent Heat Killed S-Strain Heat Killed S-Strain R + Heat Killed S R + Heat Killed S

8 Griffith’s Results Injected mice with… Injected mice with… R-strain  ? R-strain  ? S-strain  ? S-strain  ? Heat Killed S-Strain  ? Heat Killed S-Strain  ? R-strain + Heat Killed S  ? R-strain + Heat Killed S  ?

9 Griffith’s Results

10 What killed the mouse? Why did the R-strain and heat killed S- strain combination kill the mouse? Why did the R-strain and heat killed S- strain combination kill the mouse?

11 Transformation when one type of bacteria is changed into another when one type of bacteria is changed into another realized some molecule changed harmless rough bacteria into deadly smooth bacteria realized some molecule changed harmless rough bacteria into deadly smooth bacteria

12 Oswald Avery (1944) Found transformation was blocked when DNA was destroyed Found transformation was blocked when DNA was destroyed Concluded genes are made up of DNA Concluded genes are made up of DNA

13 Avery’s Experiment Treated the R-strain and heat killed S- strain bacteria with enzymes Treated the R-strain and heat killed S- strain bacteria with enzymes Proteins were destroyed → mouse died Proteins were destroyed → mouse died DNA was destroyed → mouse lived DNA was destroyed → mouse lived DNA is the transforming factor DNA is the transforming factor

17 Hershey and Chase’s Results Labeled the DNA and protein with radioactive isotopes Labeled the DNA and protein with radioactive isotopes labeled DNA with phosphorus-32 labeled DNA with phosphorus-32 labeled protein with sulfur-35 labeled protein with sulfur-35 Found P-32 in bacterium Found P-32 in bacterium Concluded genetic material of bacteriophage must be DNA  WHY? Concluded genetic material of bacteriophage must be DNA  WHY?

18 12-2: DNA Structure and Replication DNA DNA deoxyribonucleic acid deoxyribonucleic acid What is the monomer of a nucleic acid? What is the monomer of a nucleic acid? What are the three parts that make up one of these monomers? What are the three parts that make up one of these monomers?

19 DNA and Chromosomes genetic information is on chromosomes genetic information is on chromosomes Made up of chromatin Made up of chromatin DNA and protein DNA and protein histones: class of proteins that bind directly to DNA histones: class of proteins that bind directly to DNA form tiny particles called nucleosomes form tiny particles called nucleosomes help to unfold and package DNA help to unfold and package DNA

20 Nucleotides adenine (A) adenine (A) cytosine (C) cytosine (C) guanine (G) guanine (G) thymine (T) thymine (T) What comparison can you make about the four nucleotides in the diagrams? What comparison can you make about the four nucleotides in the diagrams?

21 Chargaff’s Rules (1950) amounts of adenine and thymine were the same amounts of adenine and thymine were the same amounts of cytosine and guanine were the same amounts of cytosine and guanine were the same

22 Applying Chargaff’s Rule A sequence of DNA contains 12000 base pairs. A sequence of DNA contains 12000 base pairs. If there were 2900 Guanines in the sequence, how many Adenines are in the sequence? If there were 2900 Guanines in the sequence, how many Adenines are in the sequence?

23 Rosalind Franklin (1951) used x-ray diffraction: x-ray beam is aimed at a sample used x-ray diffraction: x-ray beam is aimed at a sample X-ray is scattered and pattern recorded on film X-ray is scattered and pattern recorded on film unlocked clues to DNA structure unlocked clues to DNA structure

26 Replication Process in which DNA is copied Process in which DNA is copied Molecule separates into two strands. Molecule separates into two strands. Each template strand produces a new complementary strand. Each template strand produces a new complementary strand. Requires DNA Polymerase Requires DNA Polymerase What kind of molecule is this? What kind of molecule is this?

27 DNA Replication Double helix structure explained how DNA is copied. Double helix structure explained how DNA is copied. Each strand contains all of the information needed to construct the other half. Each strand contains all of the information needed to construct the other half. Rules of base pairing: A = T Rules of base pairing: A = T G = C G = C
