INTRO TO DNA
![Page 3: Tuesday January 29 th 2013](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568163e7550346895dd54f36/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
DNA Structure
• DNA is located in the nucleus– DNA stands for DEOXYRIBOSE NUCLEIC ACID
• DNA is a type of nucleic acid– Like starch is a type of carbohydrate
• DNA is made of repeating subunits called NUCLEOTIDES
![Page 4: Tuesday January 29 th 2013](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568163e7550346895dd54f36/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Chromatin• In the nucleus, DNA is found on long, thin
fibers called Chromatin– Chromatin consists of DNA wound around
proteins called histones– Next the DNA is wrapped into a tight
helical formation

Chromosomes
• When a cell is preparing to divide, chromatin condense into chromosomes
• The human somatic cell (body cell) has 46 chromosomes = diploid– 23 from mom + 23 from dad = 46 total– An egg and sperm cell only has 23 = haploid

Chromosomes
• Before a cell divides, it replicates all of its chromosomes
• Each chromosome now consists of 2 identical joined copies called sister chromatids
• Each sister chromatid is joined by a centromere

Genes
• A section of DNA that codes for a specific trait• You have thousands and thousands of genes

Nucleotide
![Page 13: Tuesday January 29 th 2013](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568163e7550346895dd54f36/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• There are 4 different types of nucleotides that can be used to build DNA– This is because there are 4 different nitrogen
bases that can be used• Adenine (abbreviated A)• Guanine (G)• Thymine (T)• Cytosine (C)
DNA
![Page 14: Tuesday January 29 th 2013](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568163e7550346895dd54f36/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• PURINE: Have two rings– To be PURE is Always Good.
• Adenine and Guanine
• PYRIMIDINE: Have only one ring– The other two
• Cytosine and Thymine
DNA: Purine versus Pyrimidine

• DNA overall structure is called a DOUBLE HELIXDNA
• *Strands are connected by hydrogen bonds*(between bases)

2 strands of DNA are Complementary

DNA Replication
• If I said a painting was a replica (or replicated) what does that mean?
• Why do you think it is important that we can replicate DNA?
![Page 19: Tuesday January 29 th 2013](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568163e7550346895dd54f36/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
New nucleotides come in and base pair with the “open” original strand.Results in two strands of DNAThe DNA has been copiedEach DNA molecule has one original strand and one new strand
DNA Replication…• Process of copying the DNA molecule
Original DNA strandNitrogen bases paired up according to base pairing rules
DNA Polymerase separates the bases by breaking the hydrogen bonds holding them together

• This type of replication is known as semi-conservative replication– Start with one helix split into two separate strands
but never “throw away any strands”
Replication

• QU: Replication is __________ because the strands are split and each strand is used in a new DNA molecule.
