scientists of DNA Flashcards
1
Q
miescher
A
isolated Nucleic from Pus (isolated DNA)
2
Q
Kossel
A
isolated 5 bases (actg) as nucleic acid, name of DNA
3
Q
levene
A
nucleic acids are made of PO4, ribose, and bases
4
Q
koltsov
A
- double helix model
5
Q
griffith
A
- transforming principle, info chromosomes transmit information in bacteria/viruses
6
Q
hammering
A
- established the nucleus as the site of hereditary
7
Q
Avery, McCarty, and Macleod
A
dna is probably a molecule of hereditary
8
Q
chargaff
A
- % A= % T and - % G =% C
- species can be identified based on this relationship
9
Q
Hershey and chase
A
- DNA is what carries genetic information for sure and not protein
10
Q
pauling
A
- triple helix model (failed)
11
Q
Wilkins, gosling, and Franklin
A
- X-ray diffraction photos showing an X-pattern suggesting a double helix ring
12
Q
Watson and crick
A
- double helix shape with sugar phosphate backbone, and bases parallel on the inside
13
Q
meselson-stahl experiment
A
- used bacteria and nitrogen to make DNA heavy, half DNA was heavy, other half was light
- the DNA was only light after another rep of replication, providing semi-conservative DNA replication is right
