Frederick Griffith (1928)

Conclusion: living R bacteria transformed into

deadly S bacteria by unknown, heritable

substance

Oswald Avery, et al. (1944)

Discovered that the transforming agent was

DNA

Hershey and Chase (1952)

Bacteriophages: virus that infects bacteria; composed of

DNA and protein

Protein = radiolabel S

DNA = radiolabel P

DNA composition varies

between species

Ratios:

Major Steps of Replication:

1. Helicase: unwinds DNA at origins of replication

2. Initiation proteins separate 2 strands forms replication bubble

3. Primase: puts down RNA primer to start replication

4. DNA polymerase III: adds complimentary bases to leading

strand (new DNA is made 5’ 3’)

5. Lagging strand grows in 3’5’ direction by the addition of

Okazaki fragments

6. DNA polymerase I: replaces RNA primers with DNA

7. DNA ligase: seals fragments together

1. Helicase unwinds DNA at origins of replication

and creates replication forks

4. DNA polymerase III adds nucleotides in 5’3’

direction on leading strand

Okazaki Fragments:

Short segments of DNA

that grow 5’3’ that are

added onto the Lagging

Strand

DNA Ligase: seals

together fragments

Proofreading and Repair

DNA polymerases proofread as bases added

Mismatch repair: special enzymes fix incorrect

pairings

Nucleotide excision repair:

Nucleases cut damaged DNA

DNA poly and ligase fill in gaps

Nucleotide Excision Repair

Errors:

Pairing errors: 1 in 100,000

nucleotides

nucleotides

Problem at the 5’ End

DNA poly only adds

nucleotides to 3’ end

No way to complete 5’

ends of daughter strands

Over many replications, DNA strands will grow shorter and shorter

Telomeres: repeated units of short nucleotide sequences

(TTAGGG) at ends of DNA

Telomeres “cap” ends of DNA to postpone erosion of genes

at ends (TTAGGG)

Telomerase: enzyme that adds to telomeres

Eukaryotic germ cells, cancer cells

Telomeres stained

orange at the ends of

mouse chromosomes
