Discovery of DNA Discovery of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) (deoxyribonucleic acid)

1953 Watson, 1953 Watson, Crick and Crick and Wilkins Wilkins determined the determined the structure of DNA structure of DNA to be a to be a double double helixhelix

They won a They won a Nobel Prize for Nobel Prize for their work their work

Structure of the DNA Structure of the DNA molecule molecule

DNA is DNA is shaped like shaped like a a double double helixhelix

It is like a It is like a spiral spiral staircasestaircase

Restriction EnzymesRestriction Enzymes Restriction enzymesRestriction enzymes (also known as (also known as restriction restriction

endonucleasesendonucleases) recognize specific DNA sequences and ) recognize specific DNA sequences and CLEAVECLEAVE or cut the DNA into pieces or cut the DNA into pieces **

Generally these cuts occur in a manner which leaves a sticky Generally these cuts occur in a manner which leaves a sticky end of single strand DNAend of single strand DNA

These pieces can be separated by using gel electrophoresis These pieces can be separated by using gel electrophoresis (this is like electronic chromatography)(this is like electronic chromatography)

We use restriction enzymes for cutting bacterial, viral or We use restriction enzymes for cutting bacterial, viral or even human DNA and later insertion of the desired DNA even human DNA and later insertion of the desired DNA fragments – called gene splicing fragments – called gene splicing **

one side of the DNA molecule (the one side of the DNA molecule (the sense strand) that results in the sense strand) that results in the production of a single strand of RNA production of a single strand of RNA **

The original DNA is not changedThe original DNA is not changed This process can be repeatedThis process can be repeated The amount of DNA that is transcribed The amount of DNA that is transcribed

DNA is unzipped by an enzymeDNA is unzipped by an enzyme Only one side fills with RNA nucleotides by Only one side fills with RNA nucleotides by

the action of another enzyme the action of another enzyme RNA RNA polymerasepolymerase A-U, G-C (A-U, G-C (NO THYMINE = TNO THYMINE = T) )
