Chromosomes
Long suspected to be involved in inherited traits
Chromosomes contain both DNA and proteins.
Become visible ( can see with a lightmicroscope ) as cells prepare to
divide. Chromosomes condense.

Hereditary information is stored in genes
Genome is the totality of all the genetic information.
Genes are the specic information-containing elementsof the genome that determine the characteristics of anorganism. In cells this is always in the DNA
In viruses, can be in either DNA (e.g.HPV) or RNA (e.g. HIV)

DNA (and RNA) are made of nucleotides Nucleoside = nitrogen-containing ring compound linked to a 5-
carbon sugar. The sugar can either be ribose (RNA) or deoxyribose (DNA). Nucleotide = nucleoside + 1 or more phosphates attached to its
sugar. Nitrogen-containing rings are typically called bases . Each
nucleotide is named after the base it contains. 5 bases:
Pyrimidines: Cytosine (C), Thymine (T) and Uracil (U) Purines: Guanine (G) and Adenine (A)

How do we t all our DNA into the nucleus?
The average bacterial genome is ~4 million base pairs. Bacteria typically carry their genes on a single, circular DNAmolecule. Some packaging occurs.
The human genome has ~3 billion base pairs.
Each human cell contains about 2 meters of DNA. Problem is cell nucleus is only 5-8 m big.
Putting all the human DNA into it
s nucleus is like trying to
shove 24 miles of ne thread into a tennis ball.
Eukaryotes package their DNA into discrete structures calledchromosomes .

Can also tell chromosomes apart using karyotype(display of all chromosomes ) with
Giemsa
stain
Giemsa produces darkbands in regions rich inA-T bps.
Yields a surprisinglyreliable banding pattern.
Chromosomes arenumbered according tosize.

The complex of DNA and protein is called chromatin . The maternal and paternal chromosomes of a pair are called homologous
chromosomes (homologs ).
The only non-homologous pair are the sex chromosomes in males.

Chromosomes carry genes
Genes are segments of DNA containing instructions formaking RNA. Usually the RNA is translated into proteins.
Only one strand encodes the information to make theRNA.
Can be either strand.
Regardless, a gene is generally denoted to contain boththe coding strand and its complementary strand.

Organisms vary greatly in their DNAcontent & number of genes
Some bacteria only have ~500 genes. Humans have ~23,000 genes. Single-celled Amoeba has ~60x amount of DNA of humans

Chromosomes have to replicate themselves
Cells replicate their chromosomes, and therefore their genome,through a process of ordered events that occur during the cell cycle .

Telomeres form special caps at eachchromosome end
Contain repeated nucleotide sequences that enable thechromosome ends to be duplicated.
Prevent misrecognition as broken DNA. Contribute to overall chromosome stability. Continually shortening telomeres may play a role in aging
and may limit lifespan.
Telomere shorting can also lead to chromosome instability,leading to abnormal fusions/gene rearrangements which canlead to cancer.
Elizabeth Blackburn, Carol Greider, and Jack Szostak wereawarded the 2009 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicinefor the discovery of how chromosomes are protected by
telomeres and the enzyme telomerase.

Chromosomes are made of DNA and proteins (collectivelycalled chromatin ). 2 types of proteins: histones and non-histone chromosomal proteins
