1 Ch. 16 Warm-Up Draw and label a nucleotide.
Explain the semiconservative model of DNA replication. What is the complementary DNA strand to: DNA: A T C C G T A T G A A C

2 Chargaff’s Rules: If cytosine makes up 21% of the nucleotides, then adenine would make up ___ % ?
42% 58% 29%

3 THE MOLECULAR BASIS OF INHERITANCE
Chapter 16

4 What you must know The structure of DNA.
The major steps to replication. The difference between replication, transcription, and translation. The general differences between the bacterial chromosome and eukaryotic chromosomes. How DNA is packaged into a chromosome.

5 Edwin Chargaff (1947) Chargaff’s Rules:
DNA composition varies between species Ratios: %A = %T and %G = %C

6 Rosalind Franklin (1950’s)
Worked with Maurice Wilkins X-ray crystallography = images of DNA Provided measurements on chemistry of DNA

7 James Watson & Francis Crick (1953)
Discovered the double helix by building models to conform to Franklin’s X-ray data and Chargaff’s Rules.

8 Structure of DNA DNA = double helix “Backbone” = sugar + phosphate
“Rungs” = nitrogenous bases

9 Structure of DNA Nitrogenous Bases Pairing: Adenine (A) Guanine (G)
Thymine (T) Cytosine (C) Pairing: purine + pyrimidine A = T G Ξ C purine pyrimidine

10 In analyzing a number of different bases in a DNA sample, which result would be consistent with base pairing rules? A=G A+G=C+T A+T=G+T A=C G=T

11 Structure of DNA Hydrogen bonds between base pairs of the two strands hold the molecule together like a zipper.

12 Structure of DNA Antiparallel: one strand (5’ 3’), other strand runs in opposite, upside-down direction (3’  5’)

15 DNA Comparison Double-stranded Circular One chromosome In cytoplasm
Prokaryotic DNA Eukaryotic DNA Double-stranded Circular One chromosome In cytoplasm No histones Supercoiled DNA Double-stranded Linear Usually 1+ chromosomes In nucleus DNA wrapped around histones (proteins) Forms chromatin

16 Problem: How does DNA replicate?

17 Replication: Making DNA from existing DNA
3 alternative models of DNA replication

18 Replication is semiconservative

21 DNA polymerase DNA ligase Nucelotides Okazaki fragments primase
A biochemist isolates and purifies the molecules needed for DNA replication. When she adds some DNA, replication occurs, but each DNA molecule is a normal strand paired with segments of DNA a few hundred nucleotides long. What has she probably forgotten? DNA polymerase DNA ligase Nucelotides Okazaki fragments primase

22 Major Steps of Replication:
Helicase: unwinds DNA at origins of replication Initiation proteins separate 2 strands  forms replication bubble Primase: puts down RNA primer to start replication DNA polymerase III: adds complimentary bases to leading strand (new DNA is made 5’  3’) Lagging strand grows in 3’5’ direction by the addition of Okazaki fragments DNA polymerase I: replaces RNA primers with DNA DNA ligase: seals fragments together

23 1. Helicase unwinds DNA at origins of replication and creates replication forks

24 3. Primase adds RNA primer

25 4. DNA polymerase III adds nucleotides in 5’3’ direction on leading strand

26 Replication on leading strand

27 Elongation of the leading strand during DNA synthesis…
Progresses away from the replication fork Occurs in the 3’ 5’ direction Produces Okazaki fragments Depends on DNA polymerase Does not require a template strand

28 Leading strand vs. Lagging strand
