The Basic Principle: Base Pairing
• Each strand acts as a template for building a new strand in replication
• Parent dsDNA molecule unwinds & base pairs are broken- two new daughter strands built based on
base-pairing rulesDraw

LE 16-9_1
The parent molecule has two complementary strands of DNA. Each base is paired by hydrogen bonding with its specific partner, A with T and G with C.
![Page 4: LE 16-7](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815d3b550346895dcb3d73/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

The nucleotides are connected to form the sugar-phosphate back-bones of the new strands.
The first step is separation of the two parental DNA strands.

Conservative model. The two parental strands reassociate after acting as templates for new strands, thus restoring the parental double helix.
Semiconservative model. The two strands of the parental moleculeseparate, and each functions as a template for synthesis of a new, comple-mentary strand.
Dispersive model. Each strand of both daughter molecules contains a mixture of old and newly synthesized DNA.

• Replication begins– at origin of replication (ori)
• Creation of replication bubble with replication forks at each end (Draw)
•Hundreds to thousands of oris on eukaryotic chromosome• Usually one on bacterial chromosome
•Proceeds in both directions from each origin, until the entire molecule is copied

Proofreading and Repairing DNA
• DNA polymerases proofread• Replace mismatched nt in new DNA
• Also1. Mismatch repair: repair enzymes correct
errors in base pairing
2. Nucleotide excision repair: enzymes cut out and replace damaged stretches of DNA

• Ends of eukaryotic chromosomes– Tipped with many copies of a short DNA repeat
called telomeres (e.g.human telomere sequence TTAGGG x 100-1,000)
• Added by telomerase , a ribozyme (made of RNA and proteins)
Function:Telomeres postpone loss of important genes near ends after each cell division.
Is telomerase found in all eukaryotic cells?
NO, mostly in germ cells but NOT in somatic cells.

What will happen to DNA in cells that continually dividesuch as epithelial cells (skin, gut)?
Make a prediction about the length of chromosomes in skin cellsfrom a 80 year old versus a 4 year old.
Cancer cells are characterized in part by their continuous cell division. Shouldn’t they ultimately die from loss of genes due to shortening of chromosomes?
Hypothesize why they continue to divide without injury?
Cancer cells express telomerase, which prevents
chromosome shortening
