Three Molecules of Life
DNA: four nucleotide bases (GC,AT) (2 bits)
genetic code in 3 base ‘codons’ information storage and propagation,
genetic regulation
Protein: folded polypeptide of 20 amino acids motility, metabolism, reproduction, genetic regulation, transport, etc.
Lipid: polar / non-polar molecules separate ‘self’ from ‘non-self’regulate material flow, cell shape,compartmentalizes, etc

Three Molecules of Life
Manipulating DNA – Protein Relationships:Revolutionized biological research (e.g. crystallography, fluorescent proteins as markers) and medicine (e.g. drug manufacture)

The Central Dogma
1) A simplified model.
2) Played out across life.
3) Many distinct points for control.

Say Hello to Our Little Friend
Escherichia coli
Genome: circular, long (5 Mbp / 1.25 Mb) difficult to manipulate
Plasmid: circular, short (1 - 5 kbp / 1.25 kb) easy to manipulate

Say Hello to Our Little Friend
Escherichia coli
1) How do we get the gene of interest onto the plasmid?2) How do we get the plasmid into the bacterium?3) How do we convince the bacterium to use this DNA?4) How do we tell if genes are transcribed?

Plasmid Structure
pZE21-Venus(YFP)
Promoter – RNA polymerase binding site, transcriptional regulator
Origin of Replication – site where plasmid replication begins for division, controls copy number and hence regulates
Restriction Sites – sequence-specific enzymatic DNA cleavage sites, leaves sticky ends for proper insert ligation
Kanamycin – encodes gene for Kanamycin (fungal) antibiotic resistance, imparts severe selective advantage in proper media
Non-descript DNA – contain other restriction sites for gene insertion
