The carrier of hereditary information in the body is. Genetic information in a cell. Chromosome set somatically and germ cells. DNA molecules can be seen through an electron microscope

Each protein is represented by one or more polypeptide chains. A section of DNA that carries information about one polypeptide chain is called a gene. Each DNA molecule contains many different genes. The totality of DNA molecules in a cell acts as a carrier of genetic information. Thanks to a unique property - the ability to duplicate, which no other known molecule has, DNA can be copied. When dividing, “copies” of DNA are dispersed into two daughter cells, each of which will therefore have the same information that was contained in the mother cell. Since genes are sections of DNA molecules, two cells formed during division have the same sets of genes. During sexual reproduction, each cell of a multicellular organism arises from a single fertilized egg as a result of multiple divisions. This means that a random error in the gene of one cell will be reproduced in the genes of millions of its descendants. This is why all the red blood cells of a patient with sickle cell anemia have equally degraded hemoglobin. The error occurred in the gene that carries information about the beta chain of the protein. A copy of the gene is mRNA. According to it, like a matrix, the wrong protein is “printed” thousands of times in each red blood cell. Children receive damaged genes from their parents through their reproductive cells. Genetic information is transmitted both from one cell to daughter cells and from parents to children. A gene is a unit of genetic, or hereditary, information.

  4. Remember where DNA molecules are found in plant and animal cells?
  5. What is complementarity?
  6. Name the types of RNA.

2.2. Learning new material

All properties of any organism are determined by its protein composition. Moreover, the structure of each protein is determined by the sequence of amino acid residues. Consequently, as a result, hereditary information that is passed on from generation to generation must contain information about the primary structure of proteins.

Genetic information– this is information about the structure of all proteins in the body contained in DNA molecules.

Gene is a section of a DNA molecule that encodes the primary structure of one polypeptide chain. DNA contains information about the primary structure of the protein.

Genetic code– a set of combinations of three nucleotides encoding 20 types of amino acids that make up proteins.

Properties of the genetic code:

  • The code is triplet. Each AK (amino acid) corresponds to a section of a DNA chain, and, accordingly, an mRNA of three adjacent nucleotides. Currently, the genetic code has been completely deciphered and a map has been drawn up, that is, it is known which triplets correspond to one or another amino acid out of the 20 that make up proteins.
  • The code is clear. Each codon encrypts only one AK.
  • The code is redundant (specific). This means that each AK is encrypted by more than one codon (with the exception of methionine and tryptophan). DNA consists of 4 different types nucleotides, and the smallest structural unit of a gene is a triplet of nucleotides. Therefore, the number of possible combinations is 43 = 64. There are only 20 different amino acids. Thus, there are more than enough different nucleotide triplets to encode all the amino acids.
  • The code does not overlap. Any nucleotide can be part of only one triplet.
  • There are “punctuation marks” between genes. Of the 64 triplets, U-A-A, U-A-G, U-G-A do not encode AK (consider the genetic code table in the textbook). These triplets are signals for the end of polypeptide chain synthesis. The need for these triplets is explained by the fact that in some cases, several polypeptide chains are synthesized on mRNA, and these triplets are used to separate them from each other.
  • The code is universal. The genetic code is the same for all living organisms living on Earth.

Genetic information is information about the structure of all proteins of the body contained in DNA molecules 1 gene = 1 protein molecule

Types of RNA There are several types of RNA in a cell. All of them are involved in protein synthesis. Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are the smallest RNAs. They bind AAs and transport them to the site of protein synthesis. Messenger RNA (i-RNA) - they are 10 times larger than tRNA. Their function is to transfer information about the structure of the protein from DNA to the site of protein synthesis. Ribosomal RNA (r-RNA) - have the largest molecular size and are part of ribosomes.

A gene is a section of a DNA molecule that encodes the primary structure of one polypeptide chain. A genetic code is a set of combinations of three nucleotides that encode 20 types of amino acids that make up proteins.

One amino acid is encoded by three nucleotides (one codon). ACC AGC GAT Triplet, codon gene AK1 AK2 AK3 protein Properties of the genetic code: The code is triplet. Each AK corresponds to a section of a DNA chain, and, accordingly, an mRNA of three adjacent nucleotides.

The code is clear. Each codon encrypts only one AK. The code is redundant. This means that each AK is encrypted by more than one codon (with the exception of methionine and tryptophan). The code is non-overlapping. Any nucleotide can be part of only one triplet. There are “punctuation marks” (polarity) between genes. Of the 64 triplets –U-A-A, U-A-G, U-G-A do not encode AK.

Genetic information is encoded in DNA. The genetic code was elucidated by M. Nirenberg and H.G. the Koran, for which they were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1968.

Genetic code- a system for the arrangement of nucleotides in nucleic acid molecules that controls the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide molecule.

Basic tenets of the code:

1) The genetic code is triplet. The mRNA triplet is called a codon. A codon encodes one amino acid.

2) The genetic code is degenerate. One amino acid is encrypted by more than one codon (from 2 to 6). The exceptions are methionine and tryptophan (AUG, GUG). In codons for one amino acid, the first two nucleotides are most often the same, but the third varies.

3) Codons do not overlap. The nucleotide sequence is read in one direction in a row, triplet by triplet.

4) The code is unambiguous. A codon codes for a specific amino acid.

5) AUG is the start codon.

6) There are no punctuation marks inside the gene - stop codons: UAG, UAA, UGA.

7) The genetic code is universal, it is the same for all organisms and viruses.

The discovery of the structure of DNA, the material carrier of heredity, contributed to the solution of many issues: gene reproduction, the nature of mutations, protein biosynthesis, etc.

The mechanism of genetic code transmission contributed to the development molecular biology, as well as genetic engineering, gene therapy.

DNA is located in the nucleus and is part of chromatin, as well as mitochondria, centrosomes, plastids, and RNA is in the nucleoli, cytoplasmic matrix, and ribosomes.

The carrier of hereditary information in the cell is DNA, and RNA serves to transmit and implement genetic information in pro- and eukaryotes. With the help of mRNA, the process of translating the sequence of DNA nucleotides into a polypeptide occurs.

In some organisms, in addition to DNA, RNA can be the carrier of hereditary information, for example, in tobacco mosaic viruses, polio, and AIDS.

The monomers of nucleic acids are nucleotides. It has been established that in the chromosomes of eukaryotes, a giant double-stranded DNA molecule is formed by 4 types of nucleotides: adenyl, guanyl, thymidyl, cytosyl. Each nucleotide consists of a nitrogenous base (purine G + A or pyrimidine C + T), deoxyribose and a phosphoric acid residue.

Analyzing DNA of different origins, Chargaff formulated patterns of the quantitative ratio of nitrogenous bases - Chargaff's rules.

a) the amount of adenine is equal to the amount of thymine (A=T);

b) the amount of guanine is equal to the amount of cytosine (G=C);

c) the number of purines is equal to the number of pyrimidines (G+A = C+T);

d) the number of bases with 6-amino groups is equal to the number of bases with 6-keto groups (A+C = G+T).

At the same time, the ratio of bases A+T\G+C is a strictly species-specific coefficient (for humans - 0.66; mice - 0.81; bacteria - 0.41).

In 1953, a biologist J.Watson and physicist F.Crick a spatial molecular model of DNA was proposed.

The main postulates of the model are as follows:

1. Each DNA molecule consists of two long antiparallel polynucleotide chains forming a double helix twisted around a central axis (right-handed - B-form, left-handed - Z-form, discovered by A. Rich in the late 70s).

2. Each nucleoside (pentose + nitrogenous base) is located in a plane perpendicular to the helix axis.

3. Two polynucleotide chains are held together by hydrogen bonds formed between nitrogenous bases.

4. Pairing of nitrogenous bases is strictly specific; purine bases combine only with pyrimidine bases: A-T, G-C.

5. The sequence of the bases of one chain can vary significantly, but the nitrogenous bases of the other chain must be strictly complementary to them.

Polynucleotide chains are formed by covalent bonds between adjacent nucleotides through a phosphoric acid residue that connects the carbon in the fifth position of the sugar to the third carbon of the adjacent nucleotide. The chains have a direction: the beginning of the chain is 3 "OH - in the third position of the deoxyribose carbon a hydroxyl group OH is attached, the end of the chain is 5" F, a phosphoric acid residue is attached to the fifth carbon of deoxyribose.

The autosynthetic function of DNA is replication - autoreproduction. Replication is based on the principles of semi-conservatism, anti-parallelism, complementarity and discontinuity. The hereditary information of DNA is realized as a result of replication according to the type of template synthesis. It occurs in stages: binding, initiation, elongation, termination. The process is confined to the S-period of interphase. The enzyme DNA polymerase uses single-stranded DNA as a template and, in the presence of 4 nucleotides, a primer (RNA) builds a second DNA strand.

DNA synthesis is carried out according to the principle of complementarity. Phosphodiester bonds are formed between the nucleotides of the DNA chain due to the connections of the 3 "OH group of the very last nucleotide with the 5 "-phosphate of the next nucleotide, which must join the chain.

There are three main types of DNA replication: conservative, semi-conservative, dispersed.

Conservative - preservation of the integrity of the original double-chain molecule and synthesis of the daughter double-chain molecule. Half of the daughter molecules are built entirely from new material, and half are built entirely from the old parent material.

Semi-conservative – DNA synthesis begins with the attachment of the helicase enzyme to the origin of replication, which unwinds sections of DNA. DNA binding protein (DBP) is attached to each of the chains, preventing their connection. The unit of replication is the replicon - this is the region between two points at which the synthesis of daughter chains begins. The interaction of enzymes with the origin of replication is called initiation. This point moves along the chain (3 "OH → 5" F) and a replication fork is formed.

The synthesis of a new chain occurs intermittently with the formation of fragments 700-800-2000 nucleotide residues long. There is a start and end point for replication. The replicon moves along the DNA molecule and its new sections unwind. Each of the mother chains is a template for the daughter chain, which is synthesized according to the principle of complementarity. As a result of successive connections of nucleotides, the DNA chain is lengthened (elongation stage) with the help of the enzyme DNA ligase. Upon reaching required length molecule synthesis stops - termination. In eukaryotes, thousands of replication forks operate at once. In prokaryotes, initiation occurs at one point in the DNA ring, with two replication forks moving in 2 directions. At the point where they meet, the two-stranded DNA molecules are separated.

Dispersed - the breakdown of DNA into nucleotide fragments, the new double-stranded DNA consists of spontaneously assembled new and parent fragments.

Eukaryotic DNA is similar in structure to prokaryotic DNA. The differences relate to: the amount of DNA by gene, the length of the DNA molecule, the order of alternation of nucleotide sequences, the shape of the fold (in eukaryotes it is linear, in prokaryotes it is circular).

Eukaryotes are characterized by DNA redundancy: the amount of DNA involved in coding is only 2%. Some of the excess DNA is represented by identical sets of nucleotides repeated many times (repeats). There are multiple and moderately repeating sequences. They form constitutive heterochromatin (structural). It is embedded between unique sequences. Redundant genes have 10 4 copies.

Metaphase chromosome (coiled chromatin) consists of two chromatids. The shape is determined by the presence of a primary constriction - the centromere. It divides the chromosome into 2 arms.

The location of the centromere determines the main shapes of chromosomes:

Metacentric,

Submetacentric,

Acrocentric,

Telocentric.

The degree of chromosome spiralization is not the same. Regions of chromosomes with weak spiralization are called euchromatic. This is an area of ​​high metabolic activity where DNA is composed of unique sequences. Zone with strong spiralization - heterochromatic region capable of transcription. Distinguish constitutive heterochromatin - genetic inert, does not contain genes, does not transform into euchromatin, and also optional, which can transform into active euchromatin. The terminal sections of the distal sections of chromosomes are called telomeres.

Chromosomes are divided into autosomes (somatic cells) and heterochromosomes (germ cells).

At the suggestion of Levitsky (1924), the diploid set of somatic chromosomes of a cell was called karyotype. It is characterized by the number, shape, and size of chromosomes. To describe the chromosomes of the karyotype according to the proposal of S.G. Navashina they are arranged in the form idiograms - systematic karyotype. In 1960, the Denver International Chromosome Classification was proposed, where chromosomes are classified according to the size and location of the centromere. In the karyotype of a human somatic cell, there are 22 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes. The set of chromosomes in somatic cells is called diploid, and in germ cells - haploid (it is equal to half the set of autosomes). In the human karyotype idiogram, chromosomes are divided into 7 groups, depending on their size and shape.

1 - 1-3 large metacentric.

2 - 4-5 large submetacentric.

3 - 6-12 and X chromosome are average metacentric.

4 - 13-15 average acrocentric.

5 - 16-18 relatively small meta-submetacentric.

6 - 19-20 small metacentric.

7 - 21-22 and the Y chromosome are the smallest acrocentric.

According to Paris classification chromosomes are divided into groups according to their size and shape, as well as linear differentiation.

Chromosomes have the following properties (chromosome rules):

1. Individualities - differences between non-homologous chromosomes.

2. Pairs.

3. Constancy of number - characteristic of each type.

4. Continuity - ability to reproduce.
