Summary Introduction

To sketch: A model showing base pairing of O6-MeG and cytosine.

Introduction: DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a nucleic acid which plays an important role in storage, expression and transmission of genetic material. It consists of nucleotide bases which pairs with other nucleotides covalently and helps in formation of two strands of DNA. Nucleotides of DNA are of four types- adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine.

Original sequence:    Consider the following coding 71 nucleotide DNA template sequence (It does not contain a translational start):  5’-GTTTCCCCTATGCTTCATCACGAGGGCACTGACATGTGTAAACGAAATTCCAACCTGAGCGGCGT GTTGAG-3’    Question:    4) In a mutant you discovered that the underlined nucleotide has  been deleted. What would the resulting peptide sequence be? What  type of mutation is this?  5’-GTTTCCCCTATGCTTCATCACGAGGGCACTGACATGTGTAAACGAAATTCCAACCTGAGCGGCGT GTTGAG-3
Using Fig. as a guide, draw the complete structure of a nucleoside triphosphate before and after it becomes incorporated into a polynucleotide chain. Draw the structure that would result if the newly formed phosphodiester bond were hydrolyzed.
DNA contents of nitrogenous bases • %A = %T %C = %G • A+G = C+T %3D Example: if 35% of the bases of a DNA - molecule is thymine what the % of Cyosine?
