History of DNA
Early scientists thought protein was the cell’s hereditary material because it was more complex than DNA
Proteins were composed of 20 different amino acids in long polypeptide chains

Transformation
Fred Griffith worked with virulent S and nonvirulent R strain Pneumoccocus bacteria
He found that R strain could become virulent when it took in DNA from heat-killed S strain
Study suggested that DNA was probably the genetic material

History of DNA
Chromosomes are made of both DNA and protein
Experiments on bacteriophage viruses by Hershey & Chase proved that DNA was the cell’s genetic material
Radioactive 32P was injected into bacteria!

7. Discovery of DNA Structure
Erwin Chargaff showed the amounts of the four bases on DNA ( A,T,C,G)
In a body or somatic cell:
A = 30.3%
T = 30.3%
G = 19.5%
C = 19.9%

Chargaff’s Rule
Adenine must pair with Thymine
Guanine must pair with Cytosine
The bases form weak hydrogen bonds T A G C

Question:
If there is 30% Adenine, how much Cytosine is present?
copyright cmassengale 22 22

23. copyright cmassengale
Answer:
There would be 20% Cytosine
Adenine (30%) = Thymine (30%)
Guanine (20%) = Cytosine (20%)
Therefore, 60% A-T and 40% C-G

Replication Facts
DNA has to be copied before a cell divides
DNA is copied during the S or synthesis phase of interphase
New cells will need identical DNA strands

DNA Replication B
Enzyme Helicase unwinds and separates the 2 DNA strands by breaking the weak hydrogen bonds
Single-Strand Binding Proteins attach and keep the 2 DNA strands separated and untwisted
copyright cmassengale 33 33

34. copyright cmassengale
DNA Replication
Before new DNA strands can form, there must be RNA primers present to start the addition of new nucleotides
Primase is the enzyme that synthesizes the RNA Primer
DNA polymerase can then add the new nucleotides B
copyright cmassengale 34 34

35. Direction of Replication
DNA Replication B
DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides to the 3’ end of the DNA
This causes the NEW strand to be built in a 5’ to 3’ direction

Proofreading New DNA
DNA polymerase initially makes about 1 in 10,000 base pairing errors
Enzymes proofread and correct these mistakes
The new error rate for DNA that has been proofread is 1 in 1 billion base pairing errors

37. Tie in to last class What did we do?

38. Think About It
Sometimes your teachers give you an example of how to do a project? What is the purpose of this?
How can you relate this to DNA?

40. Semiconservative Model of Replication
Idea presented by Watson & Crick
The two strands of the parental molecule separate, and each acts as a template for a new complementary strand
New DNA consists of 1 PARENTAL (original) and 1 NEW strand of DNA

DNA Damage & Repair
Chemicals & ultraviolet radiation damage the DNA in our body cells
Cells must continuously repair DAMAGED DNA
Excision repair occurs when any of over 50 repair enzymes remove damaged parts of DNA
DNA polymerase and DNA ligase replace and bond the new nucleotides together
