Summary Introduction

To propose: A model that can determine the outcome of transposition depending on the pattern of replication.

Introduction: DNA is a type of nucleic acids that is found in living organisms. DNA stands for “Deoxyribonucleic acid.” The process of the formation of daughter strands from DNA strands is termed as the replication of DNA. The enzyme RNA primer initiates the synthesis of daughter DNA strands from the template strand. The RNA primer is synthesized by an enzyme known as DNA primase. Two strands are synthesized by this enzyme; one is the leading strand, while the other is the lagging strand.

Home Work: • Suppose you perform a PCR that begins with one double-strand of the following DNA template: +5' -СТАССТСCGGGTTGACTGСТАССТТССССGGATGCCCAAAAТТСТСGAG-3— :::::::::::: :::::::::::: :::: +3'-GATGGACССССААСТGACGATGGAAGGGCCCТАССGGTTTTAAGAGCTC-5'+ A. Draw one cycle of PCR reaction below the following diagram. B. Label the template DNA, the primers, and what is happening at each step. (1) température cycle #1
a. Propose three different mutations to prevent initiation, elongation, and termination of bacterial DNA replication, respectively. Explain how/why each mutation would prevent its respective step. (Hint: mutations can be in genes that encode proteins or regulatory DNA sequences) b. In the early 1900s, Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty performed an experiment in bacterial cells to determine whether DNA, RNA, or protein functions as the 'transforming molecule' (i.e. the genetic material). In your own words, how did their experiment (depicted in the figure below) help to answer that question?
