Document Summary

1952- hershey & chase: dna inherited material. 1953- watson, crick & franklin: dna structure double helix. 1956- tijo & levan: 46 chromosomes in nucleus. Used x ray fraction to examine *rosalind franklin. Initially thought that the human genome consisted of protein: x ray fraction: the patterns reveal positions of the atoms in the crystal (i. e. helical structure) Mature red blood cells do not have 46 chromosomes because they do not contain a nucleus. Nucleotides: building blocks of nucleic acids (dna & rna) Nitrogenous bases: guanine (g, adenine (a, thymine (t, cytosine (c) Dna & rna are made of dntp (deoxynucloside triphosphate) i. e. datp, dctp, dttp,, dgtp, dutp. Rna is very unstable; because of the oh on the c2 (physical structure) Dna is stable because it does not have an oh on the c2. 4 nucleotides subunits (actg) linked into a polynucleotide chain. 3" end has a oh (hydroxyl) group.
