How does every cell get a copy of DNA?
![Page 3: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a
copy. Why?
![Page 4: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Remember that DNA Replication happens during the S phase of INTERPHASE, when the cell is
growing.
![Page 5: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Also remember that DNA runs
opposite directions on
either side (one side is upside down). This is
called an antiparallel
pattern.
![Page 6: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
To start, the DNA unwinds with the help of the enzyme helicase.
![Page 7: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Then, the DNA ladder splits in two. The
hydrogen bonds that hold the bases
together are broken. The A’s separate
from the T’s and the G’s separate from the C’s. It is like the DNA
“unzips”.
![Page 8: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
This unzipped area is called a
replication fork. Typically DNA
unzips into a bubble with a fork at either
end.
![Page 9: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Once the DNA is unzipped, pre-made nitrogenous bases (ATG & C) that are loose in the nucleus come and “fill in”
each split half of the DNA like a puzzle.
![Page 12: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
This process is aided by the enzyme DNA polymerase.
![Page 13: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
![Page 14: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Where there is a nucleotide with a Guanine base on
the DNA, a nucleotide with a Cytosine base is filled in by DNA
polymerase.
![Page 15: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Where there is a nucleotide with a Thymine base on
the DNA, a nucleotide with an Adenine base is filled in by DNA
polymerase.
![Page 16: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
When there is: DNA Polymerase will fill in:
A

Once all of the bases are filled in, you have two complete, perfect copies of DNA. It is
perfect because each unzipped half of DNA provides a pattern, or template, to fill in the
other half.
![Page 18: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
In the two resulting copies of DNA, each is half original DNA, and half new DNA. So, we say that DNA replication is semi-conservative.

What Does it Actually Do?
![Page 20: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
DNA controls living things because it holds the genetic code.
The instructions in the genetic code are used to build proteins.
![Page 21: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Remember that proteins are the tools that cells need to do their
jobs.
![Page 22: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Proteins make up many
structures in a cell!!
(your fingernails and hair are also made of protein).
![Page 23: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Enzymes that make important chemical reactions in a cell go
faster are also proteins.
![Page 24: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Proteins are made up of chains of
AMINO ACIDS
![Page 25: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Transcription is the first step to
making proteins.
It involves making a copy of the genetic code.
![Page 27: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The genetic code is made up of the order of
the nitrogen bases (ATGC) in the steps of
the DNA ladder.
![Page 28: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Every three bases make up a code that stands for a certain AMINO ACID.
This group of 3 bases is called a CODON.
So, the code on the DNA decides what order the amino acids are put together in and what kind of protein is made.
![Page 29: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

For example, the Codon CTG codes for the amino acid Aspartic acid.
The Codon T T C codes for the amino acid Lysine.

The process that turns the DNA
code into an actual protein is called….
PROTEIN SYNTHESIS.
![Page 37: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Varying the code in the DNA
changes the order of Amino
Acids in the protein, which
makes a different protein
with different properties.
![Page 38: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Protein Synthesis uses a molecule like DNA called RNA.
• RNA is single stranded
–it is only made of one half of the ladder
• RNA has a different nitrogen base
–URACIL (U) instead of Thymine (T)
• So, RNA’s bases are AUGC.
![Page 41: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

There are 3 important kinds of RNA • mRNA (messenger RNA)
• tRNA (transfer RNA)
• rRNA (ribosomal RNA)
![Page 43: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
To start protein synthesis, the DNA unzips, like if it were going to copy itself.
Instead of copying DNA, though, a copy
of MESSENGER RNA (mRNA) is made using the DNA
template.
![Page 44: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
The enzyme RNA polymerase helps build mRNA just as DNA
polymerase helped build DNA.
![Page 45: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

![Page 46: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Certain sections of DNA code called promoters tell the RNA polymerase where to attach to
DNA and start making mRNA.
These act as a start
signal for transcription.
![Page 47: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Thus, the genetic code is re-written (transcribed)
in mRNA.
![Page 48: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
The mRNA has extra “junk” code in it called introns.
These introns are cut out and the good code (called exons) are put
together and their ends are capped.
The mRNA is now complete.
![Page 49: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Introns Removed!
![Page 50: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
When the mRNA is made, it leaves the nucleus and heads for a
ribosome (WHERE PROTEINS ARE MADE).
![Page 51: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

In translation, the mRNA is read and the code is used to actually
build a protein.
![Page 53: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
RNA
AA Chain (Protein)
Ribosome
The ribosome attaches to the mRNA and runs down it like a train on a track.
It stops every three bases (once per codon), and a transfer RNA (tRNA) attaches.
![Page 54: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

TRANSFER RNA is just three bases long, but it has and extra “arm” that
grabs onto certain amino acids.
Only certain tRNAs with just the right three bases will grab onto certain
amino acids.
![Page 56: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
The three bases on tRNA are called an anti-codon.
Anti-Codon matches a sequence on the RNA (CUU)
At this end, an Amino Acid is carried
![Page 57: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
The ribosome puts the mRNA and tRNA with its amino acid together
temporarily.
Only the right tRNA with the right anti-codon and the right amino acid
will fit onto each mRNA codon.
![Page 58: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)

So, a tRNA’s job is to carry an amino acid to its mRNA codon.
![Page 60: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Once everybody is on board, the ribosome moves three more
bases down, and another tRNA attaches with another amino acid.
The two amino acids on the two tRNAs on the ribosome on the
mRNA stick to each other.
![Page 61: How does every cell get a copy of DNA? Before a cell divides, it has to copy its DNA so the new cell can have a copy. Why?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d9e5503460f94a8933a/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)

Now that two amino acids are stuck together with a peptide bond, the amino acid chain that makes a
protein has begun to form.
The ribosome keeps moving and attaching more tRNAs and more
amino acids to the chain.

Once the tRNAs have done their job and their
amino acid has joined the protein chain, they leave
to get another amino acid.

When the ribosome gets to the end of the mRNA, it finds a stop codon that tells it the
protein is complete.
The ribosome then lets go of the mRNA and the protein lets
go of the ribosome.

Many ribosomes may read a strand of mRNA at once.

From here the protein enters the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) and Golgi Complex to be finalized, packaged in vesicles and sent off to go
do its job in the cell, or to be sent out of the cell in
exocytosis.
