DNA Structure
DNA consists of two molecules that are arranged into a ladder-like structure called a Double Helix.
A molecule of DNA is made up of millions of tiny subunits called Nucleotides.
Each nucleotide consists of:1. Phosphate group2. Pentose sugar3. Nitrogenous base
![Page 8: Nucleic acids DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815d0b550346895dcb0d5b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Nucleotides
The phosphate and sugar form the backbone of the DNA molecule, whereas the bases form the “rungs”.
There are four types of nitrogenous bases.

It's hard to believe that an alphabet
with only four letters can make
something as wonderful and complex as a
person

DNA Structure
Because of this complementary base pairing, the order of the bases in one strand determines the order of the bases in the other strand.

DNA Structure
To crack the genetic code found in DNA we need to look at the sequence of bases.
The bases are arranged in triplets called codons.
A G G - C T C - A A G - T C C - T A GT C C - G A G - T T C - A G G - A T C
![Page 18: Nucleic acids DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815d0b550346895dcb0d5b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
DNA Structure
A gene is a section of DNA that codes for a protein.
Each unique gene has a unique sequence of bases.
This unique sequence of bases will code for the production of a unique protein.
It is these proteins and combination of proteins that give us a unique phenotype.
![Page 19: Nucleic acids DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815d0b550346895dcb0d5b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
THE ROLE OF DNA (pg 23)• PROTEIN SYNTHESIS- DNA has the code to make all proteins• PASSING ON OF HEREDITARY MATERIAL- Passed on from
parent to offspring.• REPLICATION- DNA can make a copy of itself for cell
division.• CARRYS GENETIC INSTRUCTIONS- Has instructions to make
all components of the cell.• MAINTAINS STRUCTURE AND REGULATION- large sections of
DNA are non-coding and they maintain structure of chromosomes and regulate the functions of genes.

DNA Profiling
Each PERSON’S DNA profile is unique!

What is DNA Profiling?
A technique used by scientists to distinguish between individuals of the same species using
only samples of their DNA
![Page 35: Nucleic acids DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815d0b550346895dcb0d5b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

![Page 36: Nucleic acids DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815d0b550346895dcb0d5b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
DNA profiling• Technique used to identify sequence of bases• The nucleotides are separated from each other in the order that they are found in strand of DNA.• Nucleotides appear as dark bands• The sequence in this segment of DNA reads CTT- AGT• Use as DNA fingerprint• Unique for every person
![Page 37: Nucleic acids DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815d0b550346895dcb0d5b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
DNA Profiling can solve crimes
• The pattern of the DNA profile is then compared with those of the victim and the suspect.
• If the profile matches the suspect it provides strong evidence that the suspect was present at the crime scene (NB:it does not prove they committed the crime).
• If the profile doesn’t match the suspect then that suspect may be eliminated from the enquiry.
![Page 38: Nucleic acids DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815d0b550346895dcb0d5b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Solving Medical Problems
DNA profiles can be used to determine whether a particular person is the parent of a child.
A childs paternity (father) and maternity(mother) can be determined.
This information can be used in• Paternity suits• Inheritance cases• Immigration cases
![Page 39: Nucleic acids DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815d0b550346895dcb0d5b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
• DNA fingerprinting is often used by the police in identifying the suspect of a crime. • A useful but controversial method• A sample of a suspect’s bodily fluid or tissue is to be compared with a sample found at the scene of a crime. • The pattern of lines represents a person’s specific genetic make-up.• DNA fingerprinting use in 11/9 disaster to identify victims

TRANSLATION
• mRNA is attached to the ribosome with triplet bases (codons) exposed.
• tRNA with a complimentary RNA code (anticodon) bring specific amino acids (1 of 20) to the ribosome.
• Amino acids from different tRNA are joined by peptide bonds. A protein is made up of 50 or more amino acids.
