Lecture 5
1. Describe the structure of DNA and explain how it is organised in
the nucleus• DNA is wound into thin threads (chromatin) long thin threads with rotein
• Non!di"iding state # DNA molecules comacted
o coiled around core article (histone rotein)
o $ig$agged% looed and coiled onto itself
• &rearing to di"ide
o DNA coies itself to form 2 arallel sister chromatids of a
chromosome
• DNA # ol'mer of nucleotides

2. Compare the structure and function of DNA "s +NADNA
• DNA codes for rotein s'nthesis
• ene ! se4uence of DNA nucleotides that codes for one rotein(mostl'
en$'mes)
• enome ! all the genes of one erson (all the genes for one erson
stimated at .!.5 genes)

• DNA has o"er a *illion *ase airs
•-nl' one nucleotide chain (not a dou*le heli,)
• ri*ose relaces deo,'ri*ose as the sugar
• uracil relaces th'mine as a nitrogenous *ase
• ssential function
• interret DNA code (interreting DNA code into rotein)
• DNA is onl' found within the nucleus +NA in c'tolasm

3. Dene the genetic code and describe how DNA codes for rotein

• Bod' can ma:e millions of diCerent roteins% all from the same 2 amino
acids% and encoded *' genes made of ust four nucleotides (A% % 0%
)*ased on . nucelotides will ma:e u the *ase for a neclaic acid
• enetic codea s'stem that ena*les these four nucleotides to code for
the amino acid se4uence of all roteins

• 8mirror!image; se4uence of nucleotides found in m+NA
• FE ossi*le codons (E.) that code for 2 amino acids
• often 2!. codons reresent the same amino acid
• start codon = AUG (also codes for methionine)
• stop codons = UAG! UGA! UAA
4. &rotein s'nthesisG explain the rocess of transcrition&re"iew of &rotein S'nthesis
• ranscrition
• messenger +NA (m+NA) is formed ne,t to an acti"ated gene
• m+NA migrates to c'tolasm
• ranslation
• m+NA code is 8read; *' ri*osomal +NA as amino acids are
assem*led into a rotein molecule DNA in nucleus canHt get to
+i*osome Ie made a co'
transfer +NA deli"ers the amino acids to the ri*osome
ranscrition
• 0o'ing instructions from DNA to +NA
• +NA ol'merase *inds to DNA
• at site selected *' chemical messengers from c'tolasm
• oens DNA heli, and transcri*es *ases from 1 strand of DNA into
re!m+NA
• if 0 on DNA% is added to m+NA
• if A on DNA% 3 is added to m+NA% etc
• rewinds DNA heli,
5. &rotein s'nthesisG explain the rocess of translationStes in ranslation of m+NA
• 0on"erts alha*et of nucleotides into a se4uence of amino acids to createa seciJc rotein

• +i*osome in c'tosol or on rough +
• small su*unit attaches to m+NA leader se4uence
• large su*unit oins and ulls m+NA along as it 8reads; it
• start codon (A3) where rotein s'nthesis *egins

• Law of comlementar' *ase airing allows *uilding of one DNA strand
*ased on the *ases in 2nd strand
• Semiconser"ati"e relication
o each new DNA molecule contains one new heli, and one conser"edfrom arent DNA
• Stes of relication rocess
o DNA helicase oens short segment of heli,
relication for: is oint of searation of 2 strands
o DNA ol'merase assem*les new strand of DNA ne,t to one of the
old strands
