What is DNA?• The hereditary material in the nucleus of
cells that tells the cell when to make proteins and what proteins it should make.
• Regions of DNA that code for proteins are called genes.
• These proteins give organisms their traits, such as eye color.
• DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid.

DNA Structure• Discovered in 1953 by James Watson and Francis Crick.• DNA is a double-helix = 2 strands twisted around each
other like a spiral staircase.• DNA is made of repeating subunits called nucleotides.• Nucleotides have 3 parts:
– Deoxyribose sugar
– Nitrogen base
– Phosphate group
•

DNA Structure continued…• The sides of the DNA ladder are repeating
phosphates and sugars.• The steps of the ladder are the nitrogen
bases.• There are 4 different nitrogen bases in DNA:
– Adenine– Guanine – Cytosine– Thymine
Purines = Have a double ring structure
Pyrimidines = Have a single ring structure

Complementary Base Pairing• Watson and Crick discovered that the following
base pairing rule exists in DNA structure:– Adenine is complementary (fits together) with Thymine
• Held together by 2 hydrogen bonds
– Cytosine is complementary with Guanine• Held together by 3 hydrogen bonds
•Each pairing includes one purine and one pyrimidine.

• If the sequence of half of a DNA strand is TAGGCC, draw the entire DNA strand. Label the phosphate groups, deoxyribose sugars, nitrogen bases, and hydrogen bonds.

Replication • During interphase, chromosomes create new chromatids. This
process of making new DNA strands is called replication.• This process happens in the nucleus of the cell.• Each new DNA produced has ½ from the original strand and ½
that is newly built.• DNA helicase breaks the hydrogen bonds that hold the 2
strands of DNA together. • DNA polymerase forms the new halves of DNA by putting the
correct nucleotides into position. It also proofreads the new DNA built for any errors.
• This process occurs once in a cell’s lifetime.

Let’s Practice Replication!
• Build the DNA model with the sequence GTTCA.
• G=yellow
• T=green
• C=blue
• A=orange

Transcription• Transcription is the making of RNA by using the DNA code as
a template.• RNA is single stranded so only ½ of the DNA is used as a
template. This half is called the sense strand. The other is the non-sense strand.
• RNA polymerase starts at the promoter on the DNA and builds the new strand of RNA until it reaches the termination signal.
• RNA produced leaves the nucleus through nuclear pores to enter the cytosol. Why can it leave?
• 3 types of RNA are produced: messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA)

3 Types of RNA1. mRNA (messenger)- carries the
DNA’s instructions for making proteins out of the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytosol.
• Every 3 nucleotides on mRNA is called a codon. Each codon codes for an amino acid.
– See codon table
![Page 19: DNA, RNA & Protein Synthesis](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062308/5681358c550346895d9cf5ec/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

2. tRNA (transfer)- carries a specific amino acid on one end and an anticodon on the other end. The anticodon complements the codon on mRNA.
Draw the tRNA structure:
3. rRNA (ribosomal)- Along with protein, this makes up the structure of a ribosome.
![Page 21: DNA, RNA & Protein Synthesis](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062308/5681358c550346895d9cf5ec/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Translation (Protein Synthesis)1. mRNA leaves the nucleus and enters the cytosol.2. mRNA attaches to a ribosome.3. At the start codon (AUG), a tRNA brings its amino
acid into position. 4. Adjacent amino acids bond together with a peptide
bond and the tRNA leaves.5. The ribosome then moves onto the next codon.6. This process continues until the STOP codon is
reached.7. The new protein is released.
