2. 12-1 DNA Frederick Griffith – 1928 – looking at how mice react to two related pneumonia bacteria Experiment - Rough bacteria – mice live - Smooth bacteria – mice got pneumonia & die - Heat-killed smooth bacteria – mice live - Heat killed smooth + rough bacteria – mice got pneumonia & die

3. Figure 12–2 Griffith’s Experiment Disease-causing bacteria (smooth colonies) Harmless bacteria (rough colonies) Heat-killed, disease- causing bacteria (smooth colonies) Control (no growth) Heat-killed, disease-causing bacteria (smooth colonies) Harmless bacteria (rough colonies) Dies of pneumoniaLives Live, disease-causing bacteria (smooth colonies) Dies of pneumonia

4. Results = heat killed smooth bacteria could pass on their trait to harmless strain… called transformation Oswald Avery – 1944 – repeated Griffith’s exp. and found thatDNA was the transforming factor

5. Alfred Hershey & Martha Chase – 1952 – worked with bacteria and virus to find out if protein or DNA held genes Virus = DNA/RNA surrounded by a protein coat Bacteriophage = a virus that infects bacteria Experiment - Radioactive marker attached to protein part of bacteriophage… infects bacteria… marker was seen outside of bacteria - Radioactive marker to DNA…infection… marker was seen inside bacteria

6. Figure 12–4 Hershey-Chase Experiment Bacteriophage with phosphorus-32 in DNA Phage infects bacterium Radioactivity inside bacterium Bacteriophage with sulfur-35 in protein coat Phage infects bacterium No radioactivity inside bacterium Results = genetic material of bacteriophage was DNA

7. Components and Structure of DNA Nucleotides = units (monomers) that make up DNA molecule Made of 3 parts: - deoxyribose – a 5-carbon sugar - a phosphate group - a nitrogenous base

8. 4 possible nitrogenous bases - purines: adenine or guanine - pyrimidines: cytosine or thymine PurinesPyrimidines AdenineGuanine CytosineThymine Phosphate group Deoxyribose

9. Erwin Chargaff – studied amounts of nitrogenous bases in DNA % guanine equal to % cytosine % adenine equal to % thymine also known as base pairing rule: A=T and C=G Hydrogen bonds Nucleotide Sugar-phosphate backbone Key Adenine (A) Thymine (T) Cytosine (C) Guanine (G)

10. Rosalind Franklin – 1952 – X-ray diffraction to get pattern from structure of DNA James Watson & Francis Crick – 1953 – published model and paper on DNA structure as a double helix double helix is similar to a twisted ladder or spiral staircase - deoxyribose and phosphate make up sides/backbone - nitrogenous base makes up stairs/rungs

11. 12-2 – Chromosomes and DNA Replication Prokaryotes = generally circular strand of DNA in cytoplasm Eukaryotes = multiple molecules of DNA in nucleus Chromosome E. coli bacterium Bases on the chromosome

12. Chromosome structure Chromatin = DNA that is tightly packed around proteins called histones - during cell division, chromatin form packed chromosomes Chromosome Supercoils Coils Nucleosome Histones DNA double helix

13. DNA Replication Replication = process of copying DNA - occurs during S phase of Interphase - process: 1. DNA is separated into two strands by an enzyme 2. free nucleotides are added by DNA polymerase according to base pairing rule

14. DNA Replication Nitrogenous bases Growth Replication fork DNA polymerase New strand Original strand DNA polymerase Replication fork Original strand New strand

15. DNA Replication

16. 12-3 RNA and Protein Synthesis RNA structure Has ribose as a sugar instead of deoxyribose Is generally single-stranded Has uracil instead of thymine

17. Types of RNA All types control protein synthesis in a cell 3 main types - mRNA = messenger RNA – copies of instructions from DNA - rRNA = ribosomal RNA – part of ribosomes - tRNA = transfer RNA – transfers amino acids to ribosome

21. Transcription

22. The Genetic Code Proteins are chains of amino acids - 20 different amino acids - the order or sequence of amino acids determines properties of the protein - codon = 3 consecutive nucleotides that specify a single amino acid - one amino acid can have multiple codons AUGGGCUCCAUCGGCGCAUAA mRNA start codon codon 2codon 3codon 4codon 5codon 6codon 7codon 1

23. Translation Translation = the decoding of an mRNA message into a polypeptide chain (protein) Occurs on ribosomes

24. Translation

25. Process: - mRNA binds to ribosome - tRNA brings appropriate amino acid to ribosome – tRNA has anticodon that is complementary to codon onmRNA; begins with specific start codon - AUG - peptide bonds are made between amino acids - assembly line continues until a stop codon

26. Why bother? Transcription and translation keep master plans (DNA) safe in the nucleus, while blueprints (RNA) are sent to the worksite (ribosomes) Proteins are needed to act as enzymes that produces the color of your skin, the type of blood cell, the rate of growth

27. 12-4 Mutations Mutation = a change in the genetic material Point mutations = change in one or a few nucleotides Frameshift mutations = adding or deleting a nucleotide… very disruptive

28. Chromosomal Mutations Deletion Duplication Chromosomal mutations = change in the number or structure of chromosomes. - Deletion = loss of all or part of a chromosome - Duplication = produce extra copies of parts of chromosome

29. Deletion & Duplication

30. - Inversion = reverse direction of parts of chromosome - Translocation = part of one chromosome breaks and attaches to another - Polyploidy = an organism has an extra sets of chromosomes Inversion Translocation

31. Translocation & Inversion
