Rosalind Franklin:
A Female Scientist Ahead of her
Time
• When we talk about Watson and Crick, Rosalind Franklin provided crucial X-ray diffraction photos that allowed Watson and Crick to develop the DNA model.
• Why did Rosalind Franklin not get a Nobel Prize?

Miescher Discovered DNA
• 1868
• Johann Miescher investigated the chemical
composition of the nucleus
• Isolated an organic acid that was high in
phosphorus
• He called it nuclein
• We call it DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)

experiment?
• The harmless R cells had been
transformed by material from the dead
S cells
• Descendents of the transformed cells
were also pathogenic

Mystery of the
Hereditary Material
• Originally believed to be an unknown
class of proteins
• Thinking was
– Heritable traits are diverse
– Molecules encoding traits must be diverse
– Proteins are made of 20 amino acids and
are structurally diverse
![Page 13: DNA: The Molecule of Heredity - Linn–Benton Community Collegecf.linnbenton.edu/mathsci/bio/klockj/upload/Ch.11 DNA... · 2012. 10. 31. · DNA: The Molecule of Heredity Chapter](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060518/604c252fcce0554fca31e669/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Oswald & Avery
• What is the transforming material?
• Cell extracts treated with protein-
digesting enzymes could still transform
bacteria
• Cell extracts treated with DNA-digesting
enzymes lost their transforming ability
• Concluded that DNA, not protein,
transforms bacteria

Bacteriophages
• Viruses that infect
bacteria
• Consist of protein
and DNA
• Inject their
hereditary material
into bacteria
![Page 15: DNA: The Molecule of Heredity - Linn–Benton Community Collegecf.linnbenton.edu/mathsci/bio/klockj/upload/Ch.11 DNA... · 2012. 10. 31. · DNA: The Molecule of Heredity Chapter](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060518/604c252fcce0554fca31e669/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Hershey & Chase’s
Experiments
• Created labeled bacteriophages
– Radioactive sulfur
– Radioactive phosphorus
• Allowed labeled viruses to infect
bacteria
• Asked: Where are the radioactive labels
after infection?

Structure of the
Hereditary Material
• Experiments in the 1950s showed that DNA is the hereditary material
• Scientists raced to determine the structure of DNA
• 1953 - Watson and Crick proposed that DNA is a double helix
![Page 18: DNA: The Molecule of Heredity - Linn–Benton Community Collegecf.linnbenton.edu/mathsci/bio/klockj/upload/Ch.11 DNA... · 2012. 10. 31. · DNA: The Molecule of Heredity Chapter](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060518/604c252fcce0554fca31e669/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Structure of Nucleotides
in DNA
• Each nucleotide consists of
– Deoxyribose (5-carbon sugar)
– Phosphate group
– A nitrogen-containing base
• Four bases
– Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, Cytosine
![Page 19: DNA: The Molecule of Heredity - Linn–Benton Community Collegecf.linnbenton.edu/mathsci/bio/klockj/upload/Ch.11 DNA... · 2012. 10. 31. · DNA: The Molecule of Heredity Chapter](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060518/604c252fcce0554fca31e669/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Composition of DNA
• Chargaff showed:
– Amount of adenine relative to guanine
differs among species
– Amount of adenine always equals amount
of thymine and amount of guanine always
equals amount of cytosine
A=T and G=C
![Page 21: DNA: The Molecule of Heredity - Linn–Benton Community Collegecf.linnbenton.edu/mathsci/bio/klockj/upload/Ch.11 DNA... · 2012. 10. 31. · DNA: The Molecule of Heredity Chapter](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060518/604c252fcce0554fca31e669/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Watson-Crick Model
• DNA consists of two nucleotide strands
• Strands run in opposite directions
• Strands are held together by hydrogen bonds
between bases
• A binds with T and C with G
• Molecule is a double helix
![Page 22: DNA: The Molecule of Heredity - Linn–Benton Community Collegecf.linnbenton.edu/mathsci/bio/klockj/upload/Ch.11 DNA... · 2012. 10. 31. · DNA: The Molecule of Heredity Chapter](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060518/604c252fcce0554fca31e669/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Rosalind Franklin’s Work
• Was an expert in x-ray crystallography
• Used this technique to examine DNA
fibers
• Concluded that DNA was some sort of
helix

DNA Structure Helps
Explain How It Duplicates
• DNA is two nucleotide strands held
together by hydrogen bonds
• Hydrogen bonds between two strands
are easily broken
• Each single strand then serves as
template for new strand

Enzymes in Replication
• Enzymes unwind the two strands
• DNA polymerase attaches
complementary nucleotides
• DNA ligase fills in gaps
• Enzymes wind two strands together
![Page 32: DNA: The Molecule of Heredity - Linn–Benton Community Collegecf.linnbenton.edu/mathsci/bio/klockj/upload/Ch.11 DNA... · 2012. 10. 31. · DNA: The Molecule of Heredity Chapter](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060518/604c252fcce0554fca31e669/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
DNA Repair
• Mistakes can occur during replication
• DNA polymerase can read correct
sequence from complementary strand
and, together with DNA ligase, can
repair mistakes in incorrect strand
![Page 33: DNA: The Molecule of Heredity - Linn–Benton Community Collegecf.linnbenton.edu/mathsci/bio/klockj/upload/Ch.11 DNA... · 2012. 10. 31. · DNA: The Molecule of Heredity Chapter](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060518/604c252fcce0554fca31e669/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
What about Cloning?
Moral Dilemma or Technological
Revolution
• Making a genetically identical copy of
an individual
• Researchers have been creating clones
for decades
• These clones were created by embryo
splitting
![Page 34: DNA: The Molecule of Heredity - Linn–Benton Community Collegecf.linnbenton.edu/mathsci/bio/klockj/upload/Ch.11 DNA... · 2012. 10. 31. · DNA: The Molecule of Heredity Chapter](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060518/604c252fcce0554fca31e669/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• Showed that differentiated cells could
be used to create clones
• Sheep udder cell was combined with
enucleated egg cell
• Dolly is genetically identical to the
sheep that donated the udder cell
Dolly:
Cloned from an Adult Cell

How Do Mutations Occur?
• Mistakes do happen
– DNA is altered or damaged in a number of
ways
• Mistakes are made during normal DNA
replication
• Certain chemicals (some components of
cigarette smoke, for example) increase DNA
errors during and after replication
• Ultraviolet radiation or X-rays also contribute to
incorrect base pairing

11.5 How Do Mutations
Occur?
• Mutations may have varying effects on
function
– Mutations are often harmful, and an
organism inheriting them may quickly die
– Some mutations may have no functional
effect
– Some mutations may be beneficial and
provide an advantage to the organism in
certain environments
