Transformation-did not really understand mechanism

•Can we do this-pick up DNA from our environment?

Hershey and Chase (1952)Their work pointed to DNA rather than proteins…

Bacteriophages what are they???? (worked with one called T2)

Some phages grown in media for a couple hrs with radioactive Sulphur…(which should be incorporated into some proteins Methionine, Cysteine)

Other phages grown in media for a couple hrs with radioactive Phosphorus….(which should be incorporated into DNA)

What do these terms refer to…

How does this replication thing work??•origin of replication •helicase •topoisomerase•replication fork •primase and the RNA primer •single stranded binding proteins•DNA polymerase

Question 1.True of Leading strand, Lagging strand, or Both????

Daughter strand elongates away from replication fork

Synthesizes 5’ to 3’

Multiple primers needed

Made in segments

Made continuously

Daughter strand elongates toward replication fork

Question 2. The diagram below shows a replication bubble with synthesis of the leading and lagging strands on both sides of the bubble. The parental DNA is shown in dark blue, the newly synthesized DNA is light blue, and the RNA primers associated with each strand are red. The origin of replication is indicated by the black dots on the parental strands.

Rank the primers in the order they were produced. If two primers were produced at the same time, overlap them.

Question 3. The lagging strand is synthesized as a series of segments called Okazaki fragments Fragment A is the most recently synthesized and Fragment B will be synthesized next in the space between primers A and B.

-----Start DNA polymerase III binds to 3’ end of primer B

A. DNA polymerase I replaces primer with DNAB. DNA polymerase I binds to 5’ end of primer AC. DNA polymerase III moves 5’ to 3’ adding DNA nucleotides to primer BD. DNA ligase links fragments A and B
