1 DNA and RNA

2 Replication Facts DNA has to be copied before a cell divides
DNA is copied during the S or synthesis phase of interphase New cells will need identical DNA strands

3 Synthesis Phase (S phase)
S phase during interphase of the cell cycle Nucleus of eukaryotes Mitosis -prophase -metaphase -anaphase -telophase G1 G2 S phase interphase DNA replication takes place in the S phase. copyright cmassengale

4 HOW IS DNA COPIED? The structure of DNA explains how it can be copied.

DNA Replication Begins at Origins of Replication Two strands open forming Replication Forks (Y-shaped region) New strands grow at the forks Replication Fork Parental DNA Molecule 3’ 5’ copyright cmassengale

6 Sites where strand separation and
Original strand DNA polymerase New strand Growth DNA polymerase Growth Replication fork Replication fork Nitrogenous bases New strand Original strand Sites where strand separation and replication occur are called _____________ replication forks

7 copyright cmassengale
DNA Replication As the 2 DNA strands open at the origin, Replication Bubbles form Prokaryotes (bacteria) have a single bubble Eukaryotic chromosomes have MANY bubbles Bubbles copyright cmassengale

8 copyright cmassengale
DNA Replication Enzyme Helicase unwinds and separates the 2 DNA strands by breaking the weak hydrogen bonds Single-Strand Binding Proteins attach and keep the 2 DNA strands separated and untwisted copyright cmassengale

9 copyright cmassengale
DNA Replication Enzyme Topoisomerase attaches to the 2 forks of the bubble to relieve stress on the DNA molecule as it separates Enzyme DNA Enzyme copyright cmassengale

10 copyright cmassengale
DNA Replication Before new DNA strands can form, there must be RNA primers present to start the addition of new nucleotides Primase is the enzyme that synthesizes the RNA Primer DNA polymerase can then add the new nucleotides copyright cmassengale

11 copyright cmassengale

12 Direction of Replication
DNA Replication DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides to the 3’ end of the DNA This causes the NEW strand to be built in a 5’ to 3’ direction RNA Primer DNA Polymerase Nucleotide 5’ 3’ Direction of Replication copyright cmassengale

Copying happens in ________ directions along the two strands & in __________ places at once. Hydrogen bonds DNA polymerase spell checks opposite multiple

22 Semiconservative Model of Replication
Idea presented by Watson & Crick The two strands of the parental molecule separate, and each acts as a template for a new complementary strand New DNA consists of 1 PARENTAL (original) and 1 NEW strand of DNA DNA Template New DNA Parental DNA copyright cmassengale

DNA DNA contains genes, sequences of nucleotide bases These Genes code for polypeptides (proteins) Proteins are used to build cells and do much of the work inside cells copyright cmassengale

29 copyright cmassengale
Genes & Proteins Proteins are made of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds 20 different amino acids exist copyright cmassengale

30 copyright cmassengale
Amino Acid Structure copyright cmassengale

31 copyright cmassengale
Polypeptides Amino acid chains are called polypeptides copyright cmassengale

32 copyright cmassengale
DNA Begins the Process DNA is found inside the nucleus Proteins, however, are made in the cytoplasm of cells by organelles called ribosomes Ribosomes may be free in the cytosol or attached to the surface of rough ER copyright cmassengale

33 copyright cmassengale
Starting with DNA DNA ‘s code must be copied and taken to the cytosol In the cytoplasm, this code must be read so amino acids can be assembled to make polypeptides (proteins) This process is called PROTEIN SYNTHESIS copyright cmassengale

RNA Differs from DNA RNA has a sugar ribose DNA has a sugar deoxyribose copyright cmassengale

36 copyright cmassengale
Other Differences RNA contains the base uracil (U) DNA has thymine (T) RNA molecule is single-stranded DNA is double-stranded DNA copyright cmassengale

37 copyright cmassengale
Structure of RNA Like DNA, RNA is a polymer of nucleotides. In an RNA nucleotide, the sugar ribose is attached to a phosphate molecule and to a base, either G, U, A, or C. Notice that in RNA, the base uracil replaces thymine as one of the pyrimidine bases. RNA is single-stranded, whereas DNA is double-stranded. copyright cmassengale

91 GENES & PROTEINS Proteins are the connection between
the gene code in the DNA and how that gene is expressed. A gene that codes for an enzyme (protein) to make a pigment can control the color of a flower. A gene that codes for an enzyme (protein) adds carbohydrates to glycoproteins to produce your blood type. Enzymes catalyze and regulate chemical reactions so proteins build and operate all cell components.
