Document Summary

Nucleotides consist of a nitrogenous base, a deoxyribose sugar and a phosphate group. The four bases in dna are cytosine, guanine, adenine and thymine. Purines (double ring structure) are a and g. Sugars and phosphates are connected by a covalent bond (phosphodiester bond) Found the double helix anti-parallel structure through xray crystallography. C and g bond with3 hydrogen bonds, a and t with two hydrogen bond. Dna was determined to hold the genetic material by hershey and chase. They used bacteriophages to infect a cell. Radioactive sulfur was used in one group, and radioactive phosphorus in the other. The radioacti(cid:448)e phosphorus (cid:449)as fou(cid:374)d i(cid:374) the (cid:858)pellet(cid:859) after ce(cid:374)trifugi(cid:374)g, (cid:373)ea(cid:374)i(cid:374)g that it was dna injected into the cells. The mrna undergoes splicing to remove the introns. The mrna is then translated to form a polypeptide. An rna intermediate means that there are expendable information carriers, so the. Non-degenerate: multiple combinations can code for the same amino acid.
