The Molecules of Heredity

DNA is a very long molecule composed of “deoxyribonucleotides,” each of which contains one of four possible kinds of bases joined to a sugar phosphate backbone. James Watson and Francis Crick discovered (1953) the overall 3D structure of DNA backbone to be a double helix and that the precise sequence of bases within the strands (chains) of DNA are what carry genetic information. The four bases of DNA are cytosine (C), thymine (T), adenine (A), and guanine (G).

The genetic information that is stored within DNA is (ultimately) transmitted to determine the production of specific proteins. DNA strands act as templates from which (specific complementary) messenger RNA (mRNA) strands are produced. RNA bases are the same as those for DNA, except that uracil (U) replaces thymine. A sequence of three RNA bases is called a “codon,” each of which then specifies a particular amino acid. The codons of mRNA are read sequentially to produce specific proteins (composed of a series of amino acids).

A gene is a segment of DNA that directs the formation of a particular protein. Genes normally occupy specific locations on particular chromosomes.
