The Search for the Genetic Material: Scientific Inquiry When T. H. Morgan’s group showed that genes are located on chromosomes, the two components of chromosomes— DNA and protein—became candidates for the genetic material The discovery of the genetic role of DNA began with research by Frederick Griffith in 1928 – When a heat-killed pathogenic strain mixed with living cells of the harmless strain, some living cells became pathogenic Transformation - change in genotype and phenotype due to assimilation of foreign DNA Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Evidence That Viral DNA Can Program Cells In 1944, Oswald Avery, Maclyn McCarty, and Colin MacLeod announced that the transforming substance was DNA – Their conclusion was based on experimental evidence that only DNA worked in transforming harmless bacteria into pathogenic bacteria Such viruses, called bacteriophages (phages), are widely used in molecular genetics research Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

In 1952, Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase performed experiments showing that DNA is the genetic material of a phage known as T2 – To determine the source of genetic material in the phage, they designed an experiment showing that only one of the two components of T2 (DNA or protein) enters an E. coli cell during infection – They concluded that the injected DNA of the phage provides the genetic information Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Building a Structural Model of DNA Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin were using a technique called X-ray crystallography to study molecular structure – Franklin’s X-ray crystallographic images of DNA enabled Watson to deduce that DNA was helical AND to deduce the width of the helix and the spacing of the nitrogenous bases – The width suggested that the DNA molecule was made up of two strands, forming a double helix Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Fig Parent cell First replication Second replication (a) Conservative model (b) Semiconservative model (c) Dispersive model

Experiments by Matthew Meselson and Franklin Stahl supported the semiconservative model They labeled the nucleotides of the old strands with a heavy isotope of nitrogen, while any new nucleotides were labeled with a lighter isotope The first replication produced a band of hybrid DNA, eliminating the conservative model A second replication produced both light and hybrid DNA, eliminating the dispersive model and supporting the semiconservative model Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Getting Started Origins of replication - two DNA strands are separated, opening up a replication “bubble” – Eukaryotic chromosomes have hundreds/ thousands of origins of replication proceeding in both directions until the entire molecule is copied Replication fork -Y-shaped region where new DNA strands are elongating Helicases - enzymes that untwist the double helix at the replication forks Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Single-strand binding protein - binds to and stabilizes single-stranded DNA until it can be used as a template Topoisomerase - corrects “overwinding” ahead of replication forks by breaking, swiveling, and rejoining DNA strands DNA polymerases - cannot initiate synthesis of a polynucleotide; they can only add nucleotides to the 3 end The initial nucleotide strand is a short RNA primer Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Fig Topoisomerase Helicase Primase Single-strand binding proteins RNA primer

Primase - can start an RNA chain from scratch and adds RNA nucleotides one at a time using the parental DNA as a template – The primer is short (5–10 nucleotides long), and the 3 end serves as the starting point for the new DNA strand Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Synthesizing a New DNA Strand DNA polymerases catalyze the elongation of new DNA at a replication fork – Most require a primer and a DNA template strand Each nucleotide that is added to a growing DNA strand is a nucleoside triphosphate dATP supplies adenine to DNA and is similar to the ATP of energy metabolism The difference is in their sugars: dATP has deoxyribose while ATP has ribose As each monomer of dATP joins the DNA strand, it loses two phosphate groups as a molecule of pyrophosphate Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Antiparallel Elongation Antiparallel structure affects replication (two strands oriented in opposite directions) DNA polymerases add nucleotides only to the free 3  end of a growing strand; therefore, a new DNA strand can elongate only in the 5  to  3  direction Leading strand - moving toward the replication fork Lagging strand - move in the direction away from the replication fork The lagging strand is synthesized as a series of segments called Okazaki fragments, which are joined together by DNA ligase Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Proofreading and Repairing DNA DNA polymerases proofread newly made DNA, replacing any incorrect nucleotides Mismatch repair of DNA, repair enzymes correct errors in base pairing DNA can be damaged by chemicals, radioactive emissions, X-rays, UV light, and certain molecules (in cigarette smoke for example) Nucleotide excision repair, a nuclease cuts out and replaces damaged stretches of DNA Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Eukaryotic chromosomal DNA molecules have at their ends nucleotide sequences called telomeres – do not prevent the shortening of DNA molecules but they do postpone the erosion of genes near the ends of DNA molecules It has been proposed that the shortening of telomeres is connected to aging If chromosomes of germ cells became shorter in every cell cycle, essential genes would eventually be missing from the gametes they produce Telomerase - catalyzes the lengthening of telomeres in germ cells The shortening of telomeres might protect cells from cancerous growth by limiting the number of cell divisions There is evidence of telomerase activity in cancer cells, which may allow cancer cells to persist Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Concept 16.3 A chromosome consists of a DNA molecule packed together with proteins Bacterial chromosome - double-stranded, circular DNA molecule with a small amount of protein Eukaryotic chromosomes - linear DNA molecules with a large amount of protein In a bacterium, the DNA is “supercoiled” and found in a region of the cell called the nucleoid Chromatin - complex of DNA and protein, and is found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells Histones - proteins that are responsible for the first level of DNA packing in chromatin Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
