Chapter 16, Problem 19TYK

You are trying to test your hypothesis that DNA replication is conservative— that is, that the parental strands separate, newly made complementary strands join together to make a new DNA molecule, and the parental strands then rejoin. You take a sample of E. coli grown in a medium containing only heavy nitrogen (15N) and transfer it to a medium containing light nitrogen (14N). After allowing time for only one DNA replication, you centrifuge a sample and compare the density band(s) formed to the bands formed from bacteria grown on either normal 14N or 15N medium. Which band location would support your hypothesis of conservative DNA replication?

Below is a diagram of DNA replication as currently believed to occur in E. coli. From specific points, arrows are provided that lead to numbers.   Answer the questions below relating to the locations specified by the numbers.                                                                              (02)  What end (5’ or 3’) of the molecule is here? (State which) What enzyme is probably functioning here to deal with supercoils in the DNA? What enzyme is probably functioning here to unwind the DNA? What nucleic acid is probably depicted here? What are these short DNA fragments usually called? What enzyme probably functions here to couple these two newly synthesized fragments of DNA? Is this strand the leading or lagging strand? What end (5’ or 3’) of the molecule is here? (State which)
When DNA replication was investigated by using heavy, N15 DNA to mark the original molecules, and light, N14 DNA to mark the newly synthesized molecules, one band was found in the middle of the centrifuge column after one round of replication, and two bands were found (middle and top of column) after 2 rounds of replication. Imagine that after 1 round of replication 2 bands were found, one at the bottom and one at the top of the centrifuge column. In that case, what model of DNA replication would have been supported?     The dispersive model     The conservative model     The Franklin model     The semi-conservative model
a) If you isolated DNA from the ear and the tail of the same mouse, would you expect the DNA, isolated form the two tissue types, to be the same? Why? (2) b) Provide one difference between DNA replication in eukaryotes and prokaryotes with regards to their origin(s) of replication. (1) For the toolbar, press ALT+F10 (PC) or ALT+FN+F10 (Mac). 14px E EY A Y BIVS Paragraph Arial ABC x² X2 ?次T Te 田田国王 用 图 +]
