Discovery of DNAThe composition of DNA was first
described correctly in 1952 by two scientists:1. Watson2. Crick
They discovered that it was formed from two long chains of nucleotides shaped much like a spiraling ladder.
They called this shape the double helix.

DNA: The Molecule of HeredityDeoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) is a very
long molecule that contains the information of life.
DNA is a polymer made of repeating subunits called nucleotides.
A nucleotide has three parts:A simple sugarA phosphate groupA nitrogen base

Base-Pairing RulesThe two sides of the double helix are
connected together by hydrogen bonds.
Hydrogen bonds form between two nitrogen bases that make up the rungs of the ladder.
The two nitrogen bases on the same rung of the DNA ladder are referred to as a base pair.
![Page 10: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Base-Pairing Rules for DNAGuanine always pairs with Cytosine
Adenine always pairs with Thymine
The strictness of base-pairing results in two strands that are complementary. This means the sequence of bases on one strand determines the sequence of bases on the other strand.
Example: T C G A A T T G C

Base-Pairing in DNAAll organisms contain chromosomes composed of
DNA made up of nucleotides with guanine, cytosine, adenine, and thymine.
The reason organisms can be different from each other even though their genetic material is made of the same molecules is because the order of nucleotides is different.
The sequence of nucleotides is what forms the genetic information of an organism.

The Central DogmaThe central dogma describes how
information from DNA gets used to make proteins.
The Central Dogma involves three processes:1. Replication – copies DNA2. Transcription – converts a DNA message
into RNA 3. Translation – interprets RNA into a string
of amino acids, called a polypeptide
![Page 15: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
DNA REPLICATIONDuring mitosis and meiosis, the cells
divide. Each time a cell divides, it must make a copy of its DNA.
Replication is the process by which DNA is duplicated, forming two identical copies from one original.
![Page 16: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
3 Steps to DNA Replication1. The enzyme helicase breaks the hydrogen bonds
between the nitrogen bases that hold the two strands together – effectively unzipping the DNA molecule.
2. As the DNA continues to unzip, free nucleotides, from the surrounding area in the nucleus, bond to the two single strands according to the base pair rule.
3. The enzyme DNA polymerase forms the sugar-to-phosphate bonds that connect the nucleotides on each strand of DNA.
![Page 17: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
DNA REPLICATIONReplication of DNA doesn’t begin at
one end of the molecule and proceed to the other.
It occurs simultaneously at many points on the molecule, speeding up the process.
Replication is completed when the entire molecule has been unzipped and replicated.

TRANSCRIPTIONTranscription is the process of producing
RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) from DNA.
RNA is the form of a nucleic acid in which information moves from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
The process of transcription is similar to the process of replication, with one exception:Adenine pairs with Uracil – not thymine
![Page 20: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
3 DIFFERENCES BETWEEN DNA & RNA
1.RNA is single stranded – DNA is double stranded
2.RNA’s sugar is ribose – DNA’s sugar is deoxyribose
3.RNA has the base uracil – DNA has the base thymine
![Page 21: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
3 TYPES OF RNA1. mRNA – messenger RNA
It carries the information from DNA (in the nucleus) out into the cytoplasm.
2. tRNA – transfer RNA It brings amino acids to the ribosomes so they
can be assembled into proteins.
3. rRNA – ribosomal RNA It makes up the ribosomes, which are the site
of protein synthesis.
![Page 22: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
COMPARE & CONTRASTREPLICATION & TRANSCRIPTION
SimilaritiesBoth involve unwinding the DNA double helixBoth involve large enzymes called polymerases
DifferencesReplication makes an identical copy of DNA, but
transcription makes RNA moleculesReplication happens only once during the cell
cycle, but transcription happens over and over on the same gene to make many copies
![Page 23: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

TRANSLATIONTranslation is a process that converts a message
from one language into another, likewise, Translation happens in your cells too.
Cells translate an mRNA message into amino acids.
A long strand of amino acids are known as a polypeptide, which are the building blocks of proteins – this whole process is called translation.
An mRNA message can be translated into 20 different amino acids.
![Page 25: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
TRANSLATION, CONTINUED
The genetic code consists of four letters that make up 3-letter “words” called codons.
Each 3-letter codon codes for 1 of the 20 amino acids.
Multiple codons can code for the same amino acid. For example, the codons UCU, UCC, UCA, and UCG all code for serine.
![Page 26: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
TRANSLATION, CONTINUED
In addition to codons that code for amino acids, there is a start codon & three stop codons.
The start codon (AUG) signals the start of translation & also codes for the amino acid methionine.
The three stop codons (UAA, UAG, & UGA) signal the end of an amino acid chain.
![Page 27: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
TRANSLATION, CONTINUED
Why have a start codon anyway?For words to make sense, they must be read
starting at the correct place, or with the correct reading frame.
For example:T HEC ATA TET HER ATTH ECA TAT ETH ERA TTHE CAT ATE THE RAT
There are no spaces between codons, but the correct start site and the correct reading frame must be used for the message to make sense.

TRANSLATION, CONTINUED
The process of translation happens in the cytoplasm of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
The amino acid chain is bonded together with a peptide bond.

MUTATIONSA mutation is any mistake or change in the DNA
sequence.
Mutations in gametes can be passed on to offspring of the affected individual, but mutations in body cells affect only the individual in which they occur.
There are two types of mutations:1. Chromosome Mutations
2. Gene Mutations
![Page 31: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
CHROMOSOME MUTATIONA chromosome mutation involves a change in the
structure or number of chromosomes.
Explanation of chromosome mutations:
Nondisjuction is when one or more pairs of homologous chromosomes fail to separate during meiosis.
Deletion – a piece of chromosome breaks off completely. After cell division, the new cell will lack a certain set of genes. Often this is fatal to the zygote.
![Page 32: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
CHANGES IN CHROMOSOME STRUCTURE
Insertion (Duplication) – A chromosome fragment attaches to its homologous chromosome, which then carry two copies of a certain set of genes
Inversion – the chromosome piece reattaches to the original chromosome but in a reverse position
Translocation – the piece reattaches to a nonhomologous chromosome
![Page 33: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
GENE MUTATIONGene mutation involves a change in the chemical
makeup of the DNA.
Point mutations occur when one or more DNA nucleotides are deleted or substituted with others.
Frameshift are mutations that change one or just a few nucleotides in a gene on a chromosomeSickle cell anemiaCystic Fibrosis
![Page 34: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
MUTATIONSOccasionally random gene mutations produce
changes that make the individual better adapted to the environment. Such mutated genes tend to increase in frequency within a population
![Page 35: DNA & Genes Chapter 11. Discovery of DNA The composition of DNA was first described correctly in 1952 by two scientists: 1. Watson 2. Crick They discovered](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d955503460f94a7e01f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
MUTAGENSMutagens are factors that increase the number of
occurrences of mutations.
