• In each chromosome, the DNA is grouped into "genes." • Your genome contains about 35,000 genes.
In the nucleus of almost every cell in your body is the collection of DNA needed to make you.
DNA in the nucleus is grouped into 23 sets of chromosomes that are called your "genome."

• Instructions is called genetic code
• The DNA in your genes tells the cell what amino acids (protein building blocks) to put together to make a protein.
•
Instructions to make your whole body and keep it working is contained in DNA

DNA StructureDNA consists of two molecules that are
arranged into a ladder-like structure called a Double Helix.
A molecule of DNA is made up of millions of tiny subunits called Nucleotides.
Each nucleotide consists of:1. Phosphate group2. Pentose sugar3. Nitrogenous base

NucleotidesThe phosphate and sugar form the
backbone of the DNA molecule, whereas the bases form the “rungs”.
There are four types of nitrogenous bases.

DNA StructureBecause of this complementary base
pairing, the order of the bases in one strand determines the order of the bases in the other strand.

DNA StructureTo crack the genetic code found in
DNA we need to look at the sequence of bases.
The bases are arranged in triplets called codons.
A G G - C T C - A A G - T C C - T A GT C C - G A G - T T C - A G G - A T C

DNA StructureA gene is a section of DNA that codes
for a protein.
Each unique gene has a unique sequence of bases.
This unique sequence of bases will code for the production of a unique protein.
It is these proteins and combination of proteins that give us a unique phenotype.

DNA Replication
With cell division -chromosome split in two (mitoses and meiosis )
DNA must divide DNA must make exact copies of itselfDNA molecule – unzipNew bases attached themselves in correct
place of each strandEach strand becomes a double helixSometimes mistakes happens – mutationMutations is important in evolution

Significance of DNA replication:Important for growth, reproduction Mutations can cause variationThe main enzyme that catalyze the process
is DNA polymerases Forms building block for amino acids that
forms proteinsThree bases provides more than the 20
combinations needed to code amino acidsThe sequence of the three bases is called a
codon.

What is DNA Profiling?
A technique used by scientists to distinguish between individuals of the
same species using only samples of their DNA
![Page 25: DNA –Position in the cell Nucleus DNA double helix Chromosomes](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110103/5697bfd21a28abf838cabecb/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Where do we get DNA
![Page 26: DNA –Position in the cell Nucleus DNA double helix Chromosomes](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110103/5697bfd21a28abf838cabecb/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
DNA profiling• Technique used to identify sequence of bases
• The nucleotides are separated from each other in
the order that they are found in strand of DNA.
• Nucleotides appear as dark bands
• The sequence in this segment
of DNA reads CTT- AGT
• Use as DNA fingerprint
• Unique for every person
![Page 27: DNA –Position in the cell Nucleus DNA double helix Chromosomes](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110103/5697bfd21a28abf838cabecb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
DNA PROFILING IS DIFFERENT FROM FINGERPRINTS
![Page 28: DNA –Position in the cell Nucleus DNA double helix Chromosomes](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110103/5697bfd21a28abf838cabecb/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
DNA Profiling can solve crimesThe pattern of the DNA profile is then compared
with those of the victim and the suspect.If the profile matches the suspect it provides
strong evidence that the suspect was present at the crime scene (NB:it does not prove they committed the crime).
If the profile doesn’t match the suspect then that suspect may be eliminated from the enquiry.
![Page 29: DNA –Position in the cell Nucleus DNA double helix Chromosomes](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110103/5697bfd21a28abf838cabecb/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Solving Medical ProblemsDNA profiles can be used to determine
whether a particular person is the parent of a child.
A childs paternity (father) and maternity(mother) can be determined.
This information can be used in• Paternity suits• Inheritance cases• Immigration cases

• DNA fingerprinting is often used by the police in identifying the suspect of a crime. • A useful but controversial method• A sample of a suspect’s bodily fluid or tissue is to be compared with a sample found at the scene of a crime. • The pattern of lines represents a person’s specific genetic make-up.• DNA fingerprinting use in 11/9 disaster to identify victims

Diabetics need insulin to liveDiabetes use insulin from pigs and
cattle. This is not the same as human insulin and sometimes produces side effects. With genetic engineering, bacteria are used to produce some human insulin

Hurley used DNA profiling to prove that Steve Bing was the father
of her child Damien

Famous CasesO.J. Simpson was
cleared of a double murder charge in 1994 which relied heavily on DNA evidence.
This case highlighted lab difficulties.

1. A ring of DNA is taken from a bacterium
2. A piece is cut out using enzymes
as ‘chemical scissors’
3. A cell is taken from a human pancreas. The gene for insulin is cut from the chromosome
4. The insulin gene is put into the ring of bacteria DNA
5. The bacteria reproduce,
making clones of themselves
6. The insulin is collected and purified ready for use

Three types of RNA and their functions
1. Messenger RNA (mRNA) which acts as a template for protein synthesis and has the same sequence of bases as the DNA strand that has the gene sequence.
1. Messenger RNA (mRNA)2. Transfer RNA (tRNA)3. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)
![Page 37: DNA –Position in the cell Nucleus DNA double helix Chromosomes](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110103/5697bfd21a28abf838cabecb/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
2. Transfer RNA (tRNA), one for each triplet codon that codes for a pecific amino-acid (the building blocks of proteins). tRNA molecules are covalently attached to the corresponding amino-acid at one end, and at the other end they have a triplet sequence (called the anti-codon) that is complementary to the triplet codon on the mRNA.
3. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) which make up an integral part of the ribosome, the protein synthesis machinery in the cell.
