Transcript of What are my four bases? Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine.
DNA STRUCTURE
4 BASESWhat are my four bases?
Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine
WHAT IS MY SAYING TO REMEMBER BASE PAIRS?
Apples in the Tree, Cars in the Garage
BASE PAIRSWhat are my base pairs?
A-TC-G
NUCLEOTIDES
What three parts make up a nucleotide?
Sugar, Phosphate, Base
Purine =A&G Pyrimidine=C,T&U
ANTI PARALLEL STRUCTUREDependent on which carbon on the sugar molecule the phosphate is attached to.
On one side of the DNA, ALL nucleotides must be flipped in order for the base pairs to match up in the middle of the DNA
RNA
FOUR BASES
What are my four bases for RNA?
AdenineGuanineUracil Cytosine
PYRIMIDINE AND PURINE BASES OF RNA
Pyrimidines Uracil Cytosine
PurinesAdenineguanine
RNA NUCLEOTIDE-Uses Ribose as the sugar-Uses uracil, not thymine as a base-three parts: sugar, phosphate, base
RNA STRUCTURE
-Single Stranded-uses uracil, adenine, cytosine, and guanine-sugar is ribose
SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES
SIMILARITES
Both have 4 bases They both have A, G, C Same three parts of the nucleotide:
sugar, phosphate, base Both have a backbone
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN RNA AND DNA
