A. The Structure of DNA

DNA and Chromosome Structure A. The Structure of DNA 1. monomers are “nucleotides” three parts: - pentose sugar

DNA and Chromosome Structure A. The Structure of DNA 1. monomers are “nucleotides” three parts: - pentose sugar, nitrogenous base

DNA and Chromosome Structure A. The Structure of DNA 1. monomers are “nucleotides” three parts: - pentose sugar, nitrogenous base

DNA and Chromosome Structure A. The Structure of DNA 1. monomers are “nucleotides” three parts: - pentose sugar, nitrogenous base, phosphate group

DNA and Chromosome Structure A. The Structure of DNA 1. monomers are “nucleotides” three parts: - pentose sugar, nitrogenous base, phosphate group Diphosphates and triphosphates also occur (ATP, GTP)

DNA and Chromosome Structure A. The Structure of DNA 1. monomers are “nucleotides” three parts: - pentose sugar, nitrogenous base, phosphate group 2. Polymerization occurs by dehydration synthesis OH O-P-O O OH H2OH2O

DNA and Chromosome Structure A. The Structure of DNA 1. monomers are “nucleotides” three parts: - pentose sugar, nitrogenous base, phosphate group 2. Polymerization occurs by dehydration synthesis 3. Polmerization results in a nucleic acid with polarity (not same at both ends) 5’ 3’

A purine (A or G) always binds with a pyrimidine (T or C) In fact, A with T (2 h-bonds) And G with C (3 h-bonds) DNA and Chromosome Structure A.
