franklin study
DNA is twisted into spiral or helix
nb are perpendicular
backnone is outside while nb is inside
more than 1 strand
monomer to polymer is formed by:
peptidyl transferase enzyme
watson and crick model
2 strands like a ladder antiparallel
ladder is sugar phosphate backbone and rungs are nitrogenous bases
rungs have the same width purines and pyrimidines
rungs consists of AT 2 H bonds and GC 3 H bonds
each turn consists of 10 pairs
A T
are linked with
2 H bonds
G C
are linked with
3 H bonds
purines are:

PYRIMIDINES ARE:

what are the 2 chromosomal proteins?
histones and
non histones
histones
structural
homogenous
has a positively charged they bind strongly to the negatively charged phosphate group at normal ph forming string of nucleotides
they are repeated as they have low molecular weight
they have high content of arginine and lysine that forms ionic bonds
shortens the DNA to a level (10 folds) that allows it to be replicated
non histones
heterogenous
found in chromatin
are structural and regulatory
high molecular weight (low amount)
structural non histones
has a role in spatial organization
forms packed proteins and condensed chromatins
regulatory non histones
determine whether the DNA code will be used in making RNA, proteins and enzymes or not
amoeba and yeast and E.coli are
eukaryotes
yeast and E.coli only have plasmids
prokaryotes
unicellular only
single molecule of circular DNA
plasmids are present in some bacterial cells
not complicated with proteins
found in nucleoid
ha one point attached to the membrane
1.4 mm long
reproduce asexually only
not surrounded by a nuclear membrane
eukaryotes
maybe unicellular or multicellular
full chromosomes
linear
plasmids are present in some yeast fungus only
complicated with proteins as histones and non histones
found in the nucleus
has many points of replicaion
2meters long
reproduce sexually or asexually
