Chapter 7, Problem 5P

One strand of a fragment of duplex DNA has the sequence 5 ' -ATCGACCTGATC- 3 ' .

a. What is the sequence of the other strand in the duplex?

b. What is the name of the bond that joins one nucleotide to another in the DNA strand?

c. Is the bond in part (b) a covalent or a noncovalent bond?

d. Which chemical groups of nucleotides react to form the bond in part (b)?

e. What enzymes catalyze the reaction in part (d)?

f. Identify the bond that joins one strand of a DNA duplex to the other strand.

g. Is the bond in part (f) a covalent or a noncovalent bond?

h. What term is used to describe the pattern of base pairing between one DNA strand and its partner in a duplex?

i. What term is used to describe the polarity of two DNA strands in a duplex?

Suppose the following base sequence was found in a segment of one  strand of a DNA molecule: 3’ A-A-T-A-C-C-T-C-C-T-A-A-C-T 5’ What would be the bases in the complementary strand? Label the 3’ and the 5’ ends. Illustrate the DNA molecule below. Label the 3’ and the 5’ ends of both strands. Separate the above DNA molecule up to the seventh base. Add one primer for the leading strand complementary to the first base Adenine of the template strand. Add one primer for the lagging strand complementary to the seventh base Adenine of the template strand. Illustrate the DNA molecule. Label the 3’ and 5’ ends. Elongate the new strands up the seventh base by adding DNA bases complementary to the template strand. Illustrate the resulting DNA molecule. Label the 3’ and the 5’ ends of the template strands and the complementary strands. Elongate the new strands up the seventh base by adding DNA bases complementary to the template strand. Illustrate the resulting DNA molecule. Label the 3’ and the 5’…
