Document Summary

Bio 130 lecture 3 nucleic acids continued, molecular interactions, and intro to proteins. Nitrogenous base: varies, gives nucleotide its identity. Phosphate group: backbone, 1p, 2p"s, 3p"s. Purines: double ring structure, guanine (g) and adenine (a) Pyrimidines: single ring structure, cytosine (c), thymine (t) and uracil (u) What are the differences between dna and rna: Dna: deoxyribose, g, c, a, t. Rna: ribose, g, c, a, u. On 2" carbon dna has h and rna has oh. Rna degrades more easily in extreme temperatures. The difference between t and u is that t has a methyl group. Nucleoside monophosphate sugar + base + 1p. Nucleoside diphosphate sugar + base + 2p. Nucleoside triphosphate sugar + base + 3p. Interactions between individual molecules usually mediated by noncovalent attractions. Electrostatic attractions: ionic bonds, bonds between oppositely charged molecules. Hydrogen bonds: special form of polar interaction. Van der waals attractions: not weakened by water, dynamic; flickering dipole; move through molecule.

A. contain DNA organized by histones.

B. contain usually one, circular chromosome.

C. contain plasmid DNA.

D. have chromosomes contained in a nucleus.

QUESTION 2. Azathioprine is a drug that may be prescribed to transplant recipients to reduce the chance of tissue rejection reactions. In its active state, it acts as a purine analogue, inhibiting DNA biosynthesis. This means that 6-mercaptopurine will be inserted in place of a purine containing nucleotides during DNA replication. Given this drug's mode of action, you would expect it to be incorporated into DNA in place of:

A. nucleotides containing guanine or cytosine.

B. nucleotides containing adenine or thymine.

C nucleotides containing adenine or guanine.

D. nucleotides containing guanine nucleotide or uracil.

QUESTION 3. RNA is distinguished from DNA because only RNA:

A. typically exists as a single-stranded molecule.

B. has a 3' to 5' directionality.

C. is composed of nucleotides that contain the sugar deoxyribose.

D. is composed of nucleotides that contain the nitrogen bases T, C, G, and A.

QUESTION 4. How are RNA nucleotides different from DNA nucleotides? To be marked correct, you'll need to select all true statements, as there may be more than one correct answer.

A. RNA nucleotides do not contain thymine.

B. RNA nucleotides use the sugar ribose, while DNA nucleotides do not.

C. RNA nucleotides lack phosphate.

D. RNA nucleotides incorporate pyrimidine nitrogen bases, while DNA nucleotides only incorporate purine nitrogen bases.
