• Genes are a series of nucleotides or a segment/section of DNA
• There are many genes on a chromosome. • Humans have 23 homologous
chromosomes. (22 pairs are autosomal, 1 pair is sex)
• Chromosomes are in the nucleus of 2 types of cells: – Somatic cells are non-sex cells and are
diploid. (Example skin cells)– Gametic cells are sex cells and are haploid.
(Example sperm or egg)

• The ends of each strand of DNA’s sugar-phosphate backbone, is polar.(What does that mean?)
• The sugar side is slightly positive (OH) (aka 3’)
• The phosphate side is slightly negative (P) (aka 5’)
• Enzymes all build new strands in a 5 (-) to 3’ (+) direction when they work!
• That means they move along the original strand from 3’ to 5’

Steps to make more DNA (an exact copy)1. Unwind double helix and break the H bonds
(helicase)2. Stabilize open strands (use the spooling
proteins called histones)3. Copy DNA by adding complementary
nucleotides (DNA polymerase)4. Check for errors (ligase and polymerase)5. Connect fragments on the lagging strand
(ligase)

Free PowerPoint BackgroundsSemi-conservative replication
• Each DNA molecule will consist of an old and a new strand of DNA.
• This means each parental or original strand of DNA can act as a template to copy.
• However, based on those back bone charges and the mandatory direction of DNA polymerase, we have a leading and lagging strand during replication.

Charges and Copy Issues• Charges on DNA strands and charges on the
enzymes copying the DNA cause a “leading” and “lagging” strand during replication. These terms are used to describe the template strand (one being copied) of DNA.
• Replication enzymes move along the template (original DNA) from 3’ – 5’. While building the new strand from the 5’ – 3’
• So the parental strand (template/original) of DNA that starts with the 3’ side is called the “leading strand”.
• The one that starts with a 5’ is called the “lagging strand”.
