  1. Chapter 10: DNA, RNA, and Protein Synthesis

  2. Words on Chapter 10 Quiz • Transformation • Nucleotide • Deoxyribose • Nitrogen base • Purine • Pyrimidine • Helicase • DNA replication • DNA polymerase • Mutation Transcription Translation Ribose Messenger RNA Ribosomal RNA Transfer RNA RNA polymerase Promotor Codon anticodon

  3. Section1: Discovery of DNA • Griffith’s Experiments: involved working with bacteria that reproduce using binary fission, pneumonia has a strand of bacteria that attacks mammals. • Transformation: was discovered from the experiments done by Griffith with the R and S strands of pneumonia. There is a relationship between how cells communicate (genetic material).

  4. The Work of Oswald Avery • He continued Griffith’s work by testing whether the transformation happened due to protein, RNA, or DNA. • He concluded that DNA was responsible for the transformation in bacteria. The RNA and protein tests did not respond correctly.

  5. Hershey-Chase Experiment • Martha Chase and Alfred Hershey (1950’s) • Worked with bacteriophages (phages) • Used radioactive sulfur to discover that DNA is the hereditary molecule in viruses.

  6. Section 2: DNA Structure • Base pairs: AT –Adenine/Thymine, CG—Cytosine/Guanine • Watson & Crick: credited with discovering that DNA is a double-helix or winding staircase • DNA Nucleotides: 5 Carbon Sugar, Phosphate group (phosphorous), and nitrogen base • Rosalind Franklin helped with the structure of DNA • AT and CG are held together by Hydrogen bonds (glue that holds both sides of the helix together) • D deoxyribose, N nucleic, A acid DEE OXY RYE BOWS

  7. Nitrogen Bases • The base pairs on the “left” of the helix: Adenine and Guanine are the group PURINES • The base pairs on the “right” of the helix: Thymine and Cytosine are the PYRIMIDINE group.

  8. Complimentary Bases • A-T C-G A A A G G G C C T T T T C C C G G A

  9. Section 3: DNA replication • Replication-is when DNA copies itself • Occurs when all living cells divide either during MEIOSIS (gametes) OR MITOSIS (autosomes)

  10. Steps on How DNA Reproduces • Helicase separate the DNA strands (helicase enzyme “unzips” the helix) • DNA polymerase add the complimentary nucleotides that match the original strand of DNA. (New DNA must match the Original) • Yield two identical DNA molecules

  11. TYPES OF RNA • Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) helps DNA copy itself • mRNA (Messenger RNA): Deliver the genetic “message” to the ribosomes in the cytosol of eukaryotic cells. • rRNA (Ribosomal RNA): is step 2 of the process where the ribosomes create proteins using the protein synthesis • tRNA (Transfer RNA): is where the amino acids help create proteins

  12. Transcription • Promotors give the signal to start copying the genes • Termination Signals give the signal to stop when that part of the genome is complete.
