DNA History and Structure 1
Discovering the structure of DNA • DNA = Deoxyribose nucleic acid • Made out of sugars (deoxyribose), phosphates and nitrogen bases
Discovering the structure of DNA • Structure was discovered in 1953 by James Watson and Francis Crick
History of DNA • Early scientists thought protein was the cell’s hereditary material because it was more complex than DNA • Proteins were composed of 20 different amino acids in long polypeptide chains copyright cmassengale 4
Transformation • Fred Griffith worked with virulent S and nonvirulent R strain Pneumoccocus bacteria • He found that R strain could become virulent when it took in DNA from heat-killed S strain • Study suggested that DNA was probably the genetic material copyright cmassengale 5
Griffith Experiment 6
History of DNA • Chromosomes are made of both DNA and protein • Experiments on bacteriophage viruses by Hershey & Chase proved that DNA was the cell’s genetic material Radioactive 32 P was injected into bacteria! 7
Discovery of DNA Structure • Erwin Chargaff showed the amounts of the four bases on DNA ( A, T, C, G) • In a body or somatic cell: A = 30. 3% T = 30. 3% G = 19. 5% C = 19. 9% copyright cmassengale 8
Chargaff’s Rule • Adenine must pair with Thymine • Guanine must pair with Cytosine • The bases form weak hydrogen bonds T A G C 9
DNA Structure • Rosalind Franklin took diffraction x-ray photographs of DNA crystals • In the 1950’s, Watson & Crick built the first model of DNA using Franklin’s xrays 10
Rosalind Franklin copyright cmassengale 11
DNA • Two strands coiled called a double helix • Sides made of a pentose sugar Deoxyribose bonded to phosphate (PO 4) groups by phosphodiester bonds • Center made of nitrogen bases bonded together by weak hydrogen bonds copyright cmassengale 12
DNA Double Helix “Rungs of ladder” Nitrogenous Base (A, T, G or C) “Legs of ladder” Phosphate & Sugar Backbone copyright cmassengale 13
Helix • Most DNA has a right-hand twist with 10 base pairs in a complete turn • Left twisted DNA is called Z -DNA or southpaw DNA • Hot spots occur where right and left twisted DNA meet producing mutations copyright cmassengale 14
DNA • Stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid • Made up of subunits called nucleotides • Nucleotide made of: 1. Phosphate group 2. 5 -carbon sugar 3. Nitrogenous base copyright cmassengale 15
Phosphate Group DNA Nucleotide O O=P-O O 5 CH 2 O N C 1 C 4 Sugar (deoxyribose) C 3 C 2 copyright cmassengale Nitrogenous base (A, G, C, or T) 16
Pentose Sugar • Carbons are numbered clockwise 1’ to 5’ 5 CH 2 O C 1 C 4 Sugar (deoxyribose) C 3 copyright cmassengale C 2 17
5 DNA O 3 3 P 5 O O C G 1 P 5 3 2 4 4 P 5 P 2 3 1 O T A 3 O 3 5 O copyright cmassengale 5 P P 18
Antiparallel Strands • One strand of DNA goes from 5’ to 3’ (sugars) • The other strand is opposite in direction going 3’ to 5’ (sugars) copyright cmassengale 19
Nitrogenous Bases • Double ring PURINES Adenine (A) Guanine (G) A or G • Single ring PYRIMIDINES Thymine (T) Cytosine (C) T or C copyright cmassengale 20
Base-Pairings • Purines only pair with Pyrimidines • Three hydrogen bonds required to bond Guanine & Cytosine 3 H-bonds G copyright cmassengale C 21
• Two hydrogen bonds are required to bond Adenine & Thymine A T copyright cmassengale 22
Question: • If there is 30% Adenine, Adenine how much Cytosine is present? copyright cmassengale 23
Answer: • There would be 20% Cytosine • Adenine (30%) = Thymine (30%) • Guanine (20%) = Cytosine (20%) • Therefore, 60% A-T and 40% C-G copyright cmassengale 24
DNA Replication copyright cmassengale 25
Cell division and DNA replication • Cells divide Growth, Repair, Replacement • Before cells divide they have to double cell structures, organelles and their genetic information
DNA replication
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 copyright cmassengale 28
Synthesis Phase (S phase) • S phase during interphase of the cell cycle • Nucleus of eukaryotes S DNA replication takes place in the S phase G 1 interphase G 2 Mitosis copyright cmassengale -prophase -metaphase -anaphase -telophase 29
DNA Replication • Begins at Origins of Replication • Two strands open forming Replication Forks (Y-shaped region) • New strands grow at the forks 5’ Parental DNA Molecule 3’ copyright cmassengale 3’ Replication Fork 30 5’
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 31
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 32
DNA Replication • Enzyme Topoisomerase attaches to the 2 forks of the bubble to relieve stress on the DNA molecule as it separates Enzyme DNA copyright cmassengale 33
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 34
copyright cmassengale 35
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 5’ 3’ Nucleotide DNA Polymerase Direction of Replication copyright cmassengale RNA Primer 36 5’
Remember HOW the Carbons Are Numbered! Phosphate Group O O=P-O O 5 CH 2 O N C 1 C 4 Sugar (deoxyribose) C 3 2 C copyright cmassengale Nitrogenous base (A, G, C, or T) 37
Remember the Strands are Antiparallel O 5 3 3 P 5 O O C G 1 P 5 3 2 4 4 P 5 P 2 3 1 O T A 3 O 3 5 O copyright cmassengale 5 P P 38
Synthesis of the New DNA Strands • The Leading Strand is synthesized as a single strand from the point of origin toward the opening replication fork 5’ 3’ Nucleotides DNA Polymerase copyright cmassengale 5’ RNA Primer 39
Synthesis of the New DNA Strands • The Lagging Strand is synthesized discontinuously against overall direction of replication • This strand is made in MANY short segments It is replicated from the replication fork toward the origin Leading Strand 5’ 3’ DNA Polymerase 5’ 3’ Lagging Strand RNA Primer copyright cmassengale 3’ 5’ 40
Lagging Strand Segments • Okazaki Fragments - series of short segments on the lagging strand • Must be joined together by an enzyme DNA Okazaki Fragment RNA Primer 5’ 3’ Polymerase 3’ 5’ Lagging Strand copyright cmassengale 41
Joining of Okazaki Fragments • The enzyme Ligase joins the Okazaki fragments together to make one strand DNA ligase 5’ 3’ Okazaki Fragment 1 Okazaki Fragment 2 3’ 5’ Lagging Strand copyright cmassengale 42
Replication of Strands Replication Fork Point of Origin copyright cmassengale 43
Proofreading New DNA • DNA polymerase initially makes about 1 in 10, 000 base pairing errors • Enzymes proofread and correct these mistakes • The new error rate for DNA that has been proofread is 1 in 1 billion base pairing errors copyright cmassengale 44
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 DNA Template strand of DNA Parental DNA New DNA copyright cmassengale 45
DNA Damage & Repair • Chemicals & ultraviolet radiation damage the DNA in our body cells • Cells must continuously repair DAMAGED DNA • Excision repair occurs when any of over 50 repair enzymes remove damaged parts of DNA • DNA polymerase and DNA ligase replace and bond the new nucleotides together copyright cmassengale 46
Question: • What would be the complementary DNA strand for the following DNA sequence? DNA 5’-CGTATG-3’ copyright cmassengale 47
Answer: DNA 5’-CGTATG-3’ 3’-GCATAC-5’ copyright cmassengale 48
