Complementary Base Pairs

⚫ Erwin Chargaff performed an experiment that showed that adenine and thymine show up in DNA in an equal amount as did cytosine and guanine. ⚪  Watson and Crick realized that the

individual structures of the nitrogenous bases determine very specific pairings between the nucleotides of the two strands of the double helix. ৽ৼঀॸׯ߾߿ࡠࡡࡢࡣࡤࡥࡦࡧࡨࡩࡪࢡࢭࢮࢯࢰࢱࢲࢳࢴࢶࢷࢸࢹࢺࢻࢼࢽ֎֍ֈՠԯԮԭԬԫԪԩԨͿ These pairings are due to the sizes of the

Complementary Base Pairing

⚫ The sequence of nucleotides along the length of one of the two DNA strands can vary in countless ways

⚫ The bases on the second strand of the double helix are determined by the sequence of the bases on the first strand. ⚪  Each base must pair up with its complementary base. ⚪  Base-pairing rules set the stage for understanding how the

information in DNA is passed through generations

RNA pairs with A in DNA.

matches each codon.

Anticodon

⚫ Anticodon- the specific triplet of bases at the end of a tRNA molecule. ⚫ The three bases of the

anticodon are complementary to a specific codon in the mRNA.

Anticodon

⚫ During translation, the anticodon on tRNA recognizes a particular codon on mRNA by using base-pairing rules.

⚫  At the other end of the tRNA molecule is a site where a particular amino acid can attach.

⚫  An enzyme specific for each amino acid recognizes both a tRNA and its amino acid partner and links the two together, using energy from ATP.

Ribosomal DNA (rRNA)

⚫ Ribosomes bring mRNA and tRNAs together during translation. Each ribosome has an attachment site for an mRNA transcript, and two sites for tRNAs.

Translation: The Process

attached amino acid ⚪  the two subunits of a

ribosome. ⚫ The start codon AUG

dictates where translation will begin

Translation: The Process

⚫ Next, amino acids are added one by one to the growing chain of amino acids. ⚫ Each addition occurs in a

three-step process ⚫ This lengthening process

continues until the ribosome reaches a stop codon—UAA, UAG, or UGA. ⚪  Remember that the three stop

codons do not code for amino acids.

⚫ Translation begins with the attachment of a ribosome and the first tRNA to a "start" (AUG) codon. The ribosome then moves along the mRNA transcript. The polypeptide elongates as an amino acid is added for each codon. When the ribosome arrives at a "stop" codon, the completed polypeptide is released.

Base Subsitution or Deletion

⚫ more nucleotides in a gene is usually more disastrous than the effects of a base substitution. ⚫ Because mRNA is read as a series of triplets, adding

or subtracting nucleotides may alter the triplet groupings of the genetic message. ⚫ Therefore, all the nucleotides that are "downstream"

of the mutation will be regrouped into different codons ⚫ These new codons code for new amino acids. ⚫ The result will be a different, and probably

nonworking, protein.
