21. Draw the hydrogen bonds between A and T that hold the double helix together. Show both molecules and label the hydrogen bonds. You can use the model from above to see these interactions. The A-T and G-C base pairs are shown in detail towards the end of the model program. You can also google A-T base pairing to find an image to refer to while drawing.

a) It is known that double stranded DNA is denatured at low pH. pKa values should allow the determination of whether this is due to perturbation of the hydrogen bonding in A-T and/or G-C base pairs. The table gives values for the pKas of different protonated groups in the nucleobases.Nucleobase Position & pKa A N1, 3.5 G N7, 1.6; N1, 9.2 C N3, 4.2 T N3, 9.7a) Draw the A-T and G-C base pairs. - Label the bases with the one-letter code. – - Number the atoms in the rings and label the atom that attaches to the sugar. - Mark the groups that interact in normal…

A C Bo B D Out of the 4 base pairs that are shown, B and C are the ONLY Watson-Crick base pairs that are found in BOTH DNA and RNA The base pair seen in B is more stable than the Watson-Crick base pair shown in C partly because of a larger number of hydrogen bonds and partly because of more favourable pi-stacking interactions with adjacent base pairs. The base pair shown in D is almost never found in the DNA double helix. because the extra space occupied by the two purine bases would severely distort the helical structure normally generated by base pairs involving a pyrimidine base and a purine base. The base pair formed in A is less stable than the Watson-Crick base pair shown in B partly because of a smaller number of hydrogen bonds and partly because of less favourable pi-stacking interactions with adjacent base pairs.
Consider normal B-form DNA. It forms a regular antiparallel double-helical structure with Watson-Crick base-pairing mediated through hydrogen bonding. The base pairs all stack upon one another, with 3.4 Å spacing between them. DNA strands having a complementary sequence will spontaneously form a double-helix in an aqueous solution. In terms of energy, what primarily drives helix formation? O Positive Entropy from base stacking van der Waals interactions O Hoogsteen interactions Positive Enthalpy from Hydrogen Bonding between GC and AT pairs Negative Enthalpy from Hydrogen Bonding between GC and AT pairs O Negative Entropy from base stacking

Hydrolysis of the N-glycosyl bond between deoxyribose and a purine base in DNA creates an apurinic (AP) site.

Using Figures 8.7 and 8.9 as a guide, draw a dinucleotide composed of C and A. Next to this, draw the complementary dinucleotide in an antiparallel fashion. Connect the dinucleotides with the appropriate hydrogen bonds. FIGURE 8.9 The two polynucleotide chains in DNA run in opposite directions. The left strand runs 5 to 3, and the right strand runs 3 to 5. The base sequences in each strand are complementary. An A in one strand pairs with a T in the other strand, and a C in one strand is paired with a G in the opposite strand. FIGURE 8.7 Nucleotides can be joined together to form chains caled polynucleotides. Polynucleotides are polar molecules with a 5 end (at the phosphate group) and a 3 end (at the sugar group). An RNA polynucleotide is shown at the left, and a DNA polynucleotide is shown at the right.
Below is a sequence of 540 bases from a genome. What information would you use to find the beginnings and ends of open reading frames? How many open reading frames can you find in this sequence? Which open reading frame is likely to represent a protein- coding sequence, and why? Which are probably not functioning protein-coding sequences, and why? Note: for simplicitys sake, analyze only this one strand of the DNA double helix, reading from left to right, so you will only be analyzing three of the six reading frames shown in Figure 19.4.
