1Chapter IV Nucleic Acid Structure and Function2 (I)Secondary StructureDouble helix Dr.Crick Dr.WatsonI.DNA StructureX-Ray Diffraction Photograph of a Hydrated DNA Fiber by Dr.Maurice Wilkins3The central cross is diagnostic of a helical structure.The strong arcs on the meridian arise from the stack of nucleotide bases,which are 3.4 apart.1.The base composition of DNA generally varies from one species to another.2.DNA specimens isolated from different tissues of the same species have the same base composition.3.The base composition of DNA in a given species does not change with an organisms age,nutritional state,or changing environment.4.In all cellular DNAs,regardless of the species:A=T,G=C,A+G=T+C4 Chargaff rules:56 Features of double helix(1):1.Two antiparallel helical DNA chains wound around the same axis to form a right handed double helix,diameter is 2nm。2.The hydrophilic backbones of alternating deoxyribose and phosphate groups are on the outside of the double helix,facing the surrounding water.3.The purine and pyrimidine bases of both strands are stacked inside the double helix,with their hydrophobic and nearly planar ring structures very close together and perpendicular to the long axis.78Features(2):4.The pairing of the two strands creates a major groove and minor groove on the surface of the duplex.5.10 base pairs,or 34 (3.4 nm),per turn of the helix.6.The hydrogen-bonded base pairs:A:T 2 Hydrogen bonds G:C 3 Hydrogen bonds9Hydrogen bonds between bases join the 2 strands.10Features(3):7.The double helix is stabilized by hydrogen bonds and base stacking force(hydrophobic interaction and van der Waals forces)Unstable factors:electrostatic repulsion between negative charged phosphate groups11B form DNA:the most stable structure for a random-sequence DNA molecule under physiological conditions.12Features:left hand helix,zigzag appearance,only has a narrow and deep minor groove pyrimidines alternate with purines may play a role(as yet undefined)in regulating gene expression or in genetic recombination.Z form DNA(Zigzag DNA)13The triplexes are most stable at low pH.The triplexes also form most readily within long sequences containing only pyrimidines or only purines in a given strand.14Triplex DNA15(II)Tertiary Structure of DNASupercoil 超螺旋超螺旋The DNA in a prokaryotic cell is a supercoil.Negative SupercoilOpen

interference(RNAi)is a biological process in which RNA molecules inhibit gene expression,typically by causing the destruction of specific mRNA molecules.Historically,it was known by post transcriptional gene silencing(PTGS).Two types of small RNA microRNA(miRNA)and small interfering RNA(siRNA)are central to RNA interference.RNA interference has an important role in defending cells against parasitic nucleotide,but also in directing development as well as gene expression in general.62for their discovery of RNA interference gene silencing by double-stranded RNAThe Nobel Prize in
