Experiment Batch 1: Radioactive sulfur (35 S) in phage protein Labeled phages infect cells. Agitation frees outside phage parts from cells. Centrifuged cells form a pellet. Free phages and phage parts remain in liquid. Radioactivity (phage protein) found in liquid Radioactive protein DNA Centrifuge Pellet © 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.
Experiment Batch 2: Radioactive phosphorus (32 P) in phage DNA Labeled phages infect cells. Agitation frees outside phage parts from cells. Centrifuged cells form a pellet.

"It has not escaped our notice that the specific pairing we have postulated immediately suggests a possible copying mechanism for the genetic material. "

DNA Polymerase • Enzyme that adds DNA nucleotides for replication • Has some “quirks” – Can only add to a pre-existing chain – Can only add to the 3’ end of a chain How are these problems overcome? -Use an RNA primer as the first segment of the new chain (later replaced by DNA) - PRIMASE is the enzyme that does this
