DNA Structure/Function

RECALL … 4 classes of macromolecules –Carbohydrates –Lipids –Proteins –NUCLEIC ACIDS!!! –Subunit: NUCLEOTIDES

Nucleic Acid Examples DNA – deoxyriboNUCLEIC ACID (de – without, oxy – oxygen, ribo – ribose sugar) Store and pass genetic information Code for proteins RNA – riboNUCLEIC ACID Protein synthesis Subunits of DNA/RNA: nucleotides

DNA Very longVery long thin molecule made up of linked nucleotides Double stranded helix –Twisted ladder Determines traits of EVERY LIVING ORGANISM

Nucleotide Structure 3 parts –Sugar (deoxyribose or ribose) –Phosphate (P with oxygens attached) –Nitrogen base Adenine Thymine Guanine Cytosine

Nucleotide Structure 2 classes of nucleotides –Purines Adenine Guanine –Pyrimidines Thymine Cytosine Purines are PURE – like A n G els P y rimidines – Y like Th y mine and C y tosine

Nitrogen Base Pairing Adenine Thymine 4-eva Guanine Cytosine

Nitrogen Base Pairing Adenine Thymine Guanine Cytosine = Hydrogen Bond

Nitrogen Base Pairing Adenine Thymine CytosineGuanine ThymineAdenine CytosineGuanine AdenineThymine Guanine Cytosine = Hydrogen Bond
