1 Warm Up 3 2/3 What does DNA replication mean?
When does DNA need to make a copy of itself? What does “template” mean?

2 DNA Replication When cells divide (mitosis), their DNA makes a copy during S phase of the cell cycle

3 DNA Replication The “original” molecule has two complementary strands

4 DNA Replication separation of the two strands by helicase
forms 2 template strands

5

6 DNA Replication Each strand has all the info to make other half because of base pairing New nucleotide attach to original strand

7 DNA Replication Final Product:
2 DNA’s (each have 1 original and 1 new strand)

8 DNA polymerase: enzyme that joins nucleotides to make DNA & proofreads new strand
Section 12-2 Original strand DNA polymerase New strand Growth DNA polymerase Growth Replication fork Replication fork Nitrogenous bases New strand Original strand After DNA Polymerase is done, other enzymes “proofread” and correct the new strand. The error rate is about 1 error per 10,000,000,000 nucleotide.to Section:

9 The Race to Discover DNA’s Structure
X-Ray diffraction 1952 Rosalind Franklin

10 Watson & Crick 1953 Developed double helix model

11 Warm Up 2 1. Look at the difference between a prokaryote cell (left) and an eukaryote cell(right). How do you think the DNA might be different in the two? 11

12 2. Nitrogen bases are held together by ___________ bonds.
3. What is cell division? 4. Put the following in order: G1 phase, mitosis, G2 phase, S phase, cytokinesis 12

14 12.2 DNA Length

15 Prokaryotes 5 million base pairs needs to fit into a space 1/1000 of its length

16 Eukaryotes 1000 times more DNA than prokaryotes
million base pairs per cell

17 proteins called histones which forms nucleosome (bead of histone+DNA).
DNA wraps around proteins called histones which forms nucleosome (bead of histone+DNA). Coils to make chromatin. Supercoils to form chromosome. DNA Double Helix Nucleosomes Chromosome Coils Supercoils Histones
