transformation: nonvirulent bacteria could become
virulent when live, nonvirulent bacteria were mixed
with dead, virulent bacteria

bacteriophage, only the DNA was needed for

genetic material

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


I.

DNA as the Genetic Material

D. Over the past decades the relationship between DNA,


RNA, and protein has been established
1. DNA is the genetic material of cells; DNA is precisely copied
by a process called replication
2. A gene is a DNA segment that encodes a polypeptide, an
rRNA, or a tRNA
3. Genes are expressed when the information they encode is
transcribed, forming an RNA molecule complementary to
the original DNA template

4. mRNA molecules direct the synthesis of proteins; the


decoding of the mRNA information occurs during a process
called translation

strands are said to be complementary

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation

IV. The Genetic Code
1. For polypeptide-coding genes, the DNA base sequence
corresponds to the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide
(colinearity)

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


IV. The Genetic Code
2. Establishment of the genetic code-each codon that specifies
a particular amino acid must be three bases long for each of
the 20 amino acids to have at least one codon; thus the
genetic code consists of 64 codons

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


IV. The Genetic Code
3. Organization of the code
Degeneracy-many amino acids are encoded by more than one
codon
Sense codons-61 codons that specify amino acids
Stop (nonsense) codons-three codons (UGA, UAG, UAA) that
do not specify an amino acid, and that are used as translation
(protein synthesis) termination signals
Wobble-describes the somewhat loose base pairing of a tRNA
anticodon to the mRNA codon; wobble eliminates the need
for a unique tRNA for each codon because the first two
positions are sufficient to establish hydrogen bonding
between the mRNA and the aminoacyl-tRNAs

IV. Gene Structure
Gene: a linear sequence of nucleotides that is within the
genomic nucleic acid molecule, and that has a fixed start
point and end point
1.

Encodes a polypeptide, a tRNA, or an rRNA

2.

Has controlling elements (e.g., promoters) that regulate


expression of a gene; may be considered as part of the gene
itself, or they may be considered as separate regulatory
sequences

3.

With some exceptions, genes are not overlapping

4.

The segment that encodes a single polypeptide is also called a


cistron

5.

In procaryotes-coding information is normally continuous


although some bacterial genes are interrupted; in eucaryotesmost genes have coding sequences (exons) that are interrupted
by noncoding sequences (introns)

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


IV. Gene Structure
Genes that code for proteins
1.

Template strand-the one strand that contains coding information


and directs RNA synthesis

2.

Promoter-a sequence of bases that is usually situated upstream


from the coding region; serves as a recognition/binding site for
RNA polymerase
a.

Recognition site-site of initial association with RNA polymerase (35 bases


upstream of transcription initiation site)

b.

Binding site (Pribnow box)-sequence that favors DNA unwinding before


transcription begins (approximately 10 bases upstream of transcription
initiation site)

c.

Consensus sequences-idealized base sequences found most often when


comparing the sequences of different bacteria

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


IV. Gene Structure
Genes that code for proteins
3.

Leader sequence-a transcribed sequence that is not translated;


contains a consensus sequence known as the Shine-Dalgarno
sequence, which serves as the recognition site for the ribosome

4.

Coding
region-the
sequence
that
begins
immediately
downstream of the leader sequence; starts with the template
sequence 3'TAC5', which gives rise to mRNA codon 5'AUG3', the
first translated codon (specifies N-formylmethionine in bacteria,
methionine in archaea and eucaryotes)

5.

Trailer region-nontranslated region located immediately


downstream of the translation terminator sequence and before
the transcription terminator

6.

Regulatory sites-sites where DNA-recognizing regulatory


proteins bind to either stimulate or inhibit gene expression

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


IV. Gene Structure
Genes that code for tRNA and rRNA
1.

tRNA genes-promoters, leaders, coding regions, and trailer


regions are found; noncoding regions are removed after
transcription; more than one tRNA may be made from a single
transcript; the tRNAs are separated by a noncoding spacer
region, which is removed after transcription

2.

rRNA genes-have promoters, leaders, coding regions and trailer


regions; all rRNA molecules are transcribed as a single large
transcript, which is cut up after transcription, yielding the final
rRNA products

VI. Mutations and their Chemical Basis
Mutations and mutagenesis
1. Mutations can alter phenotype
a.

Morphological mutations-result in changes in colony or cell morphology

b.

Lethal mutations-result in death of the organism

c.

Conditional
conditions

d.

Biochemical mutations-result in changes in the metabolic capabilities of a cell

e.

mutations-are

expressed

only

under

certain

environmental

1)

Auxotrophs-cannot grow on minimal media because they have lost a biosynthetic


capability; require supplements

2)

Prototrophs-can grow on minimal media

Resistance mutations-result in acquired resistance to some


pathogen, chemical, or antibiotic

2. Mutations can arise spontaneously or can be induced by a mutagen


3. It is widely held that spontaneous mutations occur randomly and are then
selected; however, one hypothesis holds that some mutations are
directed or adaptive mutations that may be the result of hypermutation
followed by selection of favorable mutations

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


VI. Mutations and their Chemical Basis
Spontaneous mutations
1.

Arise occasionally in all cells without exposure to external


agents; they are often the result of errors in replication

2.

Errors in replication can occur due to tautomeric shifts, which


cause base pair substitutions; other errors can lead to
frameshifts
a.

Transition-substitution of one purine for another, or of one pyrimidine for


another

b.

Transversion-substitution of a purine for a pyrimidine or vice versa

c.

Frameshift-often the result of the deletion of nucleotides, which results in an


altered codon reading frame

3.

Lesions in the structure of DNA can cause spontaneous mutations


(e.g., loss of a nitrogenous base)

4.

Insertion of DNA segments (e.g., insertion sequences and


transposons) can cause spontaneous mutations

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


VI. Mutations and their Chemical Basis
Induced mutations-caused by mutagens that damage DNA or
alter its chemistry
1.

Base analogs are incorporated into DNA during replication and


exhibit base-pairing properties different from the bases they
replace

2.

Specific mispairing occurs when a mutagen changes a bases


structure and thereby alters its pairing characteristics (e.g.,
alkylating agents)

3.

Intercalating agents, which become inserted between the


stacked bases of the helix, distort the DNA and thus induce
single nucleotide pair insertions or deletions that can lead to
frameshifts

4.

Many mutagens (e.g., UV radiation, ionizing radiation, some


carcinogens) can severely damage DNA so that it cannot act as
a replication template; this would be lethal without the repair
mechanisms to restore the DNA; however, the repair
mechanisms are error prone, which also leads to mutations

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


VI. Mutations and their Chemical Basis
The expression of mutations
1.

Forward mutation-a conversion from the most prevalent gene


form (wild type) to a mutant form

2.

Reversion-a second mutation that makes the mutant appear to


be a wild type again
a.

Back mutation-conversion of the mutant nucleotide sequence back


to the wild type sequence

b.

Suppressor mutation-a reestablishment of the wild type phenotype


by a second mutation that overcomes the effect of the first
mutation; can be in the same gene or a different gene, but does not
restore the original sequence

3.

Forward mutation-a conversion from the most prevalent gene


form (wild type) to a mutant form

4.

Reversion-a second mutation that makes the mutant appear to


be a wild type again

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


VI. Mutations and their Chemical Basis
The expression of mutations
3.

4.

Point mutations-affect only one base pair and are more


common than large deletions or insertions
a.

Silent mutations are alterations of the base sequence that do not


alter the amino acid sequence of the protein because of code
degeneracy

b.

Missense mutations are alterations of the base sequence that result


in the incorporation of a different amino acid in the protein; at the
level of protein function, the effect may range from complete loss of
activity, to no change in activity at all

c.

Nonsense mutations are alterations that produce a translation


termination codon, which results in premature termination of the
protein during synthesis; location of the mutation within the
protein will determine the extent of change in function

d.

Frameshift mutations are insertions or deletions of one or two base


pairs that thereby alter the reading frame

Mutations can also occur in regulatory sequences and in tRNA


and rRNA genes; all can give observable phenotypes

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


VI. Mutations and their Chemical Basis
Detection and Isolation of Mutants
1.

2.

Mutant Detection
a.

Visual observation of changes in colony characteristics

b.

Auxotrophic mutants (i.e., those which have lost the ability to


synthesize a particular end product and which therefore require its
presence in the growth medium) can be detected by replica plating
on media with and without the growth factor; mutants are those
growing with the factor but not without it

Mutant selection-achieved by finding the environmental


condition in which the mutant will grow but the wild type will
not (useful for isolating auxotrophic revertants and resistance
mutants)

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


VI. Mutations and their Chemical Basis
Detection and Isolation of Mutants
3.

Carcinogenicity testing
a.

Many cancer-causing agents (carcinogens) are also mutagens

b.

Tests for mutagenicity are used as a screen for carcinogenic


potential

c.

The Ames test is a widely used mutagenicity test; it detects an


increase in reversion of special strains of Salmonella typhimurium
from histidine auxotrophy to prototrophy after exposure to a
potential carcinogen

VII. DNA Repair
A. Excision repair
a.

Corrects damage that causes distortions of DNA (e.g., thymine dimers,


apurinic or apyrimidinic sites, damaged or unnatural DNA)

b.

The damaged area is excised, producing a single-stranded gap, and


then the gap is filled in by DNA polymerase I and DNA ligase

B. Removal of lesions-reverses damage without removing and


replacing bases; although this process is error free, it is
limited to the repair of certain kinds of damage (e.g.,
photoreactivation to remove thymine dimers)

5.1 Genes: Structure, Replication, and Mutation


VII. DNA Repair
C. Postreplication repair-mismatch repair system detects
mismatched base pairs in newly synthesized DNA; these are
removed and replaced by the action of DNA polymerase I
and DNA ligase
1.

Restores DNA that has damage in both strands by recombination with an


undamaged molecule, if available (this frequently occurs in rapidly
dividing cells where there is another copy of the chromosome not yet
parceled out to a daughter cell)

2.

SOS repair is a type of recombination repair; it is used to repair excessive


damage that halts replication; it is an error-prone process that results in
many mutations
