1 DNA structure Slide 1 title page Slide 2 HIP Hop Hooray for DNA dont work How was the structure of DNA discovered video you can watch this when your notes are done. (I recommend you take the 9:16 and watch it ) What does DNA stand for?

Slide 3 Click on the video and watch it: in the space provided write 5 key points from the video: o o o o o What does double helix mean? The single unit (monomer) of the DNA molecule is ______________________________ The backbone of DNA is made up of _______________________ Bases are joined together by what type of bond? What is the concept of complementary base pairing? DNA is coiled up into structures called ________________________

Slide 4 What bases are the purines and what bases are pyramidines?

Slide 5 What makes the genetic code? Bases are read in groups of _______________ (called a codon) What types of bonds hold nucleotides together? The triplets are used to send instructions in the cell to..

Slide 6 The link to science.nhmccd.edu does not work but you can go to http://nhscience.lonestar.edu/biol/bio1int.htm#biochem and look at the DNA structure links DNA is a double strand of _________________________ What is on the outside of the molecules? The 2 strands run in opposite directions and is called _____________________

Slide 7 Ready HL people. What type and how many bonds hold Adenine to Thymine? What type and how many bonds hold Guanine to Cytocine The antiparellel strands of polynucleotides if you are looking at one side of the DNA molecule and it is the 5 end what prime is the other side of the molecule? Covalent bonds link what carbon numbers together? What type of bonds hold the helix together?

Slide 8 What are 2 roles of hydrogen bonding within the DNA molecule? Why is complementary base pairing so significant? Why are the sugar-phosphate backbones positioned on the outside of the molecule? Why are nitrogenous bases positioned on the inside of the molecule?

Slide 9 What do nucleosomes do? How many histone molecules make up a nucleosome How manytimes does DNA wrap around the nucleosome? Instead of the link on the page follow this one http://www.biostudio.com/demo_freeman_dna_coiling.htm

Slide 10 What do histone proteins allow? Why is this so significant? Why cant supercoiled sections of DNA be expressed? How does supercoiling allow for control of gene expression?

Slide 11 The sequence of the bases on DNA makes up a ___________________ What is a gene? What does nuclear DNA contain? What is a codon? What is the difference between exons and introns?

Slide 12 What does HRS stand for? Why can HRSs be used for DNA fingerprinting? Does HRS affect phenotype?
