11-1: Not in IB, but ... Experiments on bacteria and viruses demonstrated that DNA IS the GENETIC MATERIAL!
7
11.1 What Is the Evidence that the Gene Is DNA?
By the 1920s: chromosomes consisted of DNA & proteins. A new dye stained DNA, provided circumstantial evidence—DNA’s the genetic material: It was in the right place It varied among species It was present in the right amount

11.1 What Is the Evidence that the Gene Is DNA?
Frederick Griffith, working w/2 strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae “transforming principle” from dead cells of 1 strain produced a heritable change in the other strain.

11.1 What Is the Evidence that the Gene Is DNA?
To identify the transforming principle, Oswald Avery: Treated samples to destroy different molecules (RNA, DNA, Protein) If DNA was destroyed, the transforming principle was lost.

Figure 11.9 Base Pairing in DNA Is Complementary
Pairs of complementary bases form hydrogen bonds that hold the two strands of the DNA double helix together. Each phosphate group links the 3′ carbon of one sugar to the 5′ carbon of the next sugar along the backbone. 5′ end 3′ end 3′ end TA pairs have two hydrogen bonds. CG pairs have three hydrogen bonds. The strands both run in a 5′-to-3′ direction—they are antiparallel.

Replication Model Remember this?!? Then 7.1
43
11-3 Recap: Meselson and Stahl showed that DNA replication is semiconservative: each parent strand serves as a template for a new strand A complex of proteins, most notably DNA polymerases, is involved New DNA is polymerized in one direction only Since the 2 strands are antiparallel, 1 strand is made continuously and the other is made in Okazaki fragments that are eventually joined

11.3 How Is DNA Replicated? Human chromosome telomeres (TTAGGG) are repeated about 2500 times. Chromosomes can lose 50–200 base pairs with each replication. After 20–30 divisions, the cell dies.
77
11.3 How Is DNA Replicated? Some cells—bone marrow stem cells, gamete- producing cells—have telomerase that catalyzes the addition of telomeres. 90% of human cancer cells have telomerase; normal cells do not. Some anticancer drugs target telomerase.

11-4 Recap: DNA replication ain’t perfect!
DNA can also be damaged or naturally altered Repair mechanisms exist that detect and repair mismatched or damaged DNA

83
11.4 How Are Errors in DNA Repaired?
The newly replicated DNA is scanned for mistakes by other proteins. Mismatch repair mechanism detects mismatched bases—the new strand has not yet been modified (e.g., methylated in prokaryotes) so it can be recognized. If mismatch repair fails, the DNA is altered.
84
Figure 11.22 DNA Repair Mechanisms (B)
85
11.4 How Are Errors in DNA Repaired?
DNA can be damaged by radiation, toxic chemicals, and random spontaneous chemical reactions. Excision repair: enzymes constantly scan DNA for mispaired bases, chemically modified bases, and extra bases—unpaired loops.

IB Finished with Chapter 11!
Quiz tomorrow (3.3, 3.4) & 7.1, 7.2
88
11-5 Recap: Knowledge of the mechanisms of DNA replication led to development of techniques for making multiple copies of DNA sequences of DNA molecules!
89
11-5 Recap ?s: What do primers do in PCR?
Why are dideoxyribonucleosides used in DNA sequencing?
90
PCR is a cyclical process: DNA fragments are denatured by heating.
11.5 What Are Some Applications of Our Knowledge of DNA Structure and Replication? Copies of DNA sequences can be made by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique. PCR is a cyclical process: DNA fragments are denatured by heating. A primer, plus nucleosides and DNA polymerase are added. New DNA strands are synthesized.
91
Figure 11.23 The Polymerase Chain Reaction
92
11.5 What Are Some Applications of Our Knowledge of DNA Structure and Replication?
PCR results in many copies of the DNA fragment—referred to as amplifying the sequence. Primers are 15–20 bases, made in the laboratory. The base sequence at the 3′ end of the DNA fragment must be known.
93
11.5 What Are Some Applications of Our Knowledge of DNA Structure and Replication?
DNA polymerase that does not denature at high temperatures (90°C) was taken from a hot springs bacterium, Thermus aquaticus.
94
DNA sequencing determines the base sequence of DNA molecules.
11.5 What Are Some Applications of Our Knowledge of DNA Structure and Replication? DNA sequencing determines the base sequence of DNA molecules. Relies on altered nucleosides with fluorescent tags that emit different colors of light. DNA fragments are then denatured and separated by electrophoresis.
