DNA Structure and Replication

4 types of Nitrogen bases: Adenine

ThymineGuanineCytosine

Deoxyribonucleic acid

How do I write the complimentary DNA strand??

How do I write the complimentary DNA strand??

Remember Chargaff’s Base Pairing Rules??

Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T)Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C)

DNA Strand: Complimentary

DNA Strand:TGCGCGTTAAGT

ACGCGCAATTCA

How do you make more DNA?

WHERE DOES DNA REPLCATION OCCUR?

• S Phase occurs during interphase of the cell cycle• Takes place in the nucleus of eukaryotes

How does DNA Replication work?

How does your DNA go from 1 DNA strand 2 identical DNA strands

Matching Cards

= Helicase

= DNA Polymerase

= Complimentary DNA Strand
