Do Now True or False? Correct the false statements.  The first cloned animal was a tadpole.  You inherit more from your father if you are a boy.  Identical twins do NOT have the same DNA.  All humans share 75% of their DNA.

Objectives SWBAT identify the parts of a nucleotide SWBAT label the different parts of a DNA molecule.

DNA DNA stands for:  Deoxyribonucleic acid DNA is located:  In the nucleus of cells The function of DNA is to:  Tells the cells how to produce things that make you up (Blueprint)

DNA Structure Nucleotide is made of:  5 carbon sugar (Deoxyribose)  Phosphate Group  Nitrogen base (adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine)

Nitrogen Bases

DNA Structure

DNA often is compared to a twisted ladder. Rails of the ladder are represented by the alternating deoxyribose and phosphate. The pairs of bases (cytosine–guanine or thymine–adenine) form the steps.

Base Pairs- Rungs of the ladder -2 Strands of DNA form a helix

Orientation of DNA- Anti Parallel  On the top rail, the strand is said to be oriented 5′ to 3′.  The strand on the bottom runs in the opposite direction and is oriented 3′ to 5′.

Do Now (#1 and 6 refer to the ends of DNA)

Do Now Where is DNA located? What is the role of DNA in the cell?

Objectives 1. SWBAT read and understand the discovery of DNA by several scientists. 2. SWBAT understand how viruses replicate and be able to apply this knowledge to a problem.

When was DNA discovered? We are going to study the scientists who helped to discover DNA. We are going to take turns reading around the room and taking notes.

Bacterial Transformation

Why do we care about bacterial transformation? Genetic Research Antibiotic Resistance

1928 Fred Griffith - Studied two strains of bacteria, Streptococcus pneumoniae Worked with two strains of bacteria: Rough Strain and Smooth Strain S strain causes pneumonia and the R strain does not

Griffith Cont. S strain: Heat killed S strain: R Strain: Heat killed S strain + R Strain:

1928 Fred Griffith - Discovered that something from the heat killed wild type (smooth) bacteria was turning the mutant (rough) type bacteria into smooth. Called it the transforming factor Didn’t really know what it was

Let’s Talk a little about DNA. Do now period 6 What is DNA? Where is DNA found? What do scientists know about our DNA? How do we apply this DNA technology?

Objectives SWBAT list and identity the characteristics of viruses SWBAT label a diagram of the life cycle of a virus SWBAT explain Hershey and Chases experiment and it’s importance to the discovery of DNA

Avery Identified the molecule that transformed the R strain of bacteria into the S strain Concluded that when the S cells were killed, DNA was released R bacteria incorporated this DNA into their cells and changed into S cells. Many people did not believe that it was DNA, not protein that transformed genes

Viruses- Six Characteristics of Viruses 1. Have their own genome (genetic make up) made of either DNA or RNA 2. Does not have enzymes, ribosomes, or ATP 3. Have external protein shells (capsids)

Viruses- Six Characteristics of Viruses 4. Infect only specific cells 5. 2 life cycles (lytic and lysogenic)  Lytic – breaks out and spreads  Lysogenic- hangs around 6. Smaller than bacteria

When a virus attacks a cell… Let’s try to put these in order….

Lytic vs. Lysogenic Cycle

Hershey and Chase Used radioactive labeling to trace the DNA and protein Concluded that the viral DNA was injected into the cell and provided the genetic information needed to produce new viruses

Hershey and Chase Radioactive Labeling:  Used radioactive phosphorus ( 32 P) to identify DNA in the bacteriophages  Used radioactive sulfer ( 35 S) to identify proteins in the bacteriophages

Hershey and Chase Tracking DNA Radioactive bacteriophages infected bacteria cells After review results found radioactive sulfur outside of bacteria cells and radioactive phosphorus inside bacteria cells

Objectives SWBAT explain what Chargaff, Franklin, and Watson/Crick discovered. SWBAT create a timeline of the scientists that discovered DNA. SWBAT label parts of the DNA molecule SWBAT describe how a chromosome coils.

Erwin Chargaff Chargaff’s rule: C = G and T = A

Rosiland Franklin X-ray Diffraction use of photo 51 X-ray diffraction data helped solve the structure of DNA Indicated that DNA was a double helix

X-Ray Crystallography

Watson and Crick Built a model of the double helix that conformed to the others’ research  two outside strands consist of alternating sugar and phosphate molecules  cytosine and guanine bases pair to each other by three hydrogen bonds  thymine and adenine bases pair to each other by two hydrogen bonds

THINK-PAIR-SHARE Create a timeline of all the scientists and what they discovered.

Chromosome Structure DNA coils around histones (proteins) to form nucleosomes, This coils to form chromatin fibers. The chromatin fibers supercoil to form chromosomes that are visible in the metaphase stage of mitosis.

Do Now How do you think your DNA gets in every cell of your body? Explain.

Objectives SWBAT define semiconservative replication, helicase, ligase, DNA polymerase, and replication. SWBAT explain how DNA Replicates SWBAT extract DNA out of a strawberry.

Semiconservative Replication  Parental strands of DNA separate  Each strand serve as template  DNA molecules produced have one strand of parental DNA and one daughter strand

Steps to DNA Replication 1. Unwinding DNA helicase (enzyme) unwinds and unzips the DNA – breaking the hydrogen bonds between the strands RNA primase adds a short segment of RNA, called an RNA primer, on each DNA strand.

Steps to DNA Replication 2. Base Pairing DNA polymerase (enzyme) adds complementary nucleotides to parent DNA strand Only adds to 3’ end of new DNA strand

2. Base Pairing (cont.) Two daughter strands of DNA are made differently  Leading Strand- Built continuously with out breaks  Lagging Strand- makes several small fragments of DNA Built discontinuously Pieces are called Okazaki Fragments Fragments are connected by DNA Ligase

DNA Replication

Steps to DNA Replication 3. Joining DNA Polymerase removes RNA Primer and fills it in place with DNA nucleotides DNA ligase links two sections
