Central Dogma of Molecular Biology
DNA → RNA → protein

1) DNA contains all the genetic information about an organism.
2) Regions on DNA that code for specific attributes are called genes.
3) In order for the information within a gene to be useful, it has to be translated into proteins.

What makes good genetic material?
● Stable source of information
● Ability to replicate accurately
● Capable of change

DNA
-DNA Stands for DeoxyriboNucleic Acid
-DNA is the hereditary material inherited from past generations
-The vast majority ( >99%) of your DNA is in the nucleus of your cells

DNA Structure-double helix.
- sugar-phosphate backbone with nitrogenous groups attached

-monomers that make up nucleic acid
Three components
1. Pentose sugarDNA = deoxyribose
2. Nitrogenous base
3. Phosphate group attached to 5’ carbon
Nucleotides

Four bases:
Adenine and guanine are known as purines
Cytosine and thymine are known as pyrimidines

-Nucleotides are linked by phosphodiester bonds
Phosphodiester bond
- covalent bond between the phosphate group (attached to 5’ carbon) of one nucleotide and the 3’ carbon of the sugar of another nucleotide.
-very strong: DNA is remarkably stable- can be boiled without degrading!

● The DNA helix is composed of two ANTIPARALLEL strands
5’: phosphate3’: OH of sugar

5’ and 3’● the ends of the DNA chain are not the
same● One end of the chain has a 5’ carbon
(bound to phosphate group) and the other end has a 3’ carbon (bound to OH group)
