,Study task 1. Chapter 1: DNA, Chapter 2: RNA, Chapter 3: Proteins and
Chapter 4: Nucleic Acid Extraction Methods.
Chapter 1: DNA
Describe the structure of DNA and nucleotides
DNA (deoxyribonucleïnezuur).
 Bevat alle erfelijke informatie van een organisme
• DNA strengen zijn complementair
• DNA strengen vormen een dubbele helix
• De twee DNA strengen worden bij elkaar gehouden door
waterstofbruggen

Nucleotides: Base+Suiker+Fosfaat
Nucleotiden vormen een groep van bio-organische
verbindingen die de bouwstenen voor DNA en RNA
vormen.

Structuren:
Een nucleotide bestaat uit drie hoofdcomponenten:
 een purine- of een pyrimidinebase (een
zogenaamde nucleobase)
Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine en Thymine
 een suiker met vijf koolstofatomen (een
zogenaamd pentose)
 één tot drie fosfaatgroepen

Nucleosides: Base+Suiker
Een nucleoside is een bio-organische verbinding die bestaat uit een suiker (pentose) met 5
koolstofatomen en een nucleobase (een purine- of een pyrimidinederivaat).



Ribose sugar: Ribose is een monosacharide.




Nitrogen base: Rol kan worden beschouwd als een bouwsteen voor DNA en RNA.
DNA: adenine (A), guanine (G) = Purine, thymine (T), and cytosine (C) = Pyrimidine
RNA: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and uracil (U).
Purine (2 ringen): Adenine en Guanine Pyrimidine: (1 ring): Cytosine en Thymine

,Samenvatting Moleculaire Diagnostiek – Minor Bioresearch 2017 – Joyce Bakker
De suiker en fosfaatgroepen zijn covalent verbonden en vormen de
ruggegraat van de keten
• 3’ einde: hydroxyl-groep van suiker
• 5’ einde: fosfaat groep




Hydrogen bonds (2 or 3): Een
waterstofbinding is een zwakke chemische
binding die optreedt tussen
waterstofatomen en meer elektronegatieve
atomen. (A)denin en (T)hymine = 2
waterstofbindingen, (G)uanine en
(C)ytosine = 3 waterstofbindgen

Double helix: De DNA dubbele helix
polymeer van nucleïnezuren,
bijeengehouden door nucleotiden die
basepaar elkaar.


Describe the process of DNA replication and the functions of the enzymes involved and List the
enzymes that modify DNA and state their specific function (e.g. polymerases, helicases,
primase, methylases, deaminases, ligases, exonucleases, endonucleases incl. star activity)
DNA replicatie: productie van
twee complete dubbele helixen
uit een helix.
DNA-replicatie is nodig voor de
celdeling (mitose). De replicatie
begint op vaste plaatsen op het
DNA, de zogenaamde 'origin of
replication'.




DNA strengen zijn complementair. Beide
strengen kunnen dienen als template.
Ondanks de antiparallel aar d van de twee
strengen DNA synthese verloopt langs beide
strengen in dezelfde richting (5’ naar 3’).

DNA replicatie is semiconservatief. Een
combinatie van strengen.

, Samenvatting Moleculaire Diagnostiek – Minor Bioresearch 2017 – Joyce Bakker
Replicatie origin: Bij de replicatie
origin verbreken initiator eiwitten de
waterstofbruggen tussen de DNA
strengen.
- Bacterieel genoom (circulair
DNA) heeft 1 replicatie origin.
- Menselijk genoom heeft ca.
10.000 replicatie origins →
verkort replicatie tijd

Leading strand: continu gevormde DNA streng. 5’ 3’
Lagging strand: discontinu gevormde DNA streng. 3’ 5’

Okazaki-fragment: DNA streng die groeit aan de 5’ kant wordt discontinu gemaakt in kleine stukjes (Okazaki
fragmenten). Okazaki fragmenten worden later verbonden.
RNA-primer : stukje RNA geproduceerd door primase (RNA polymerase) dat dient als begin voor DNA synthese
Primase: Maakt RNA-primer. Primase kan twee losse nucleotiden verbinden.

1. Enzym helicase ontwind het DNA helix. Breekt het waterstof binding van het DNA backbone.
2. Enkelstrengs bindings eiwitten(SS=Single Stranded) zorgt dat terug binding niet plaats vindt.
3. Het leading strand template die van 5’ naar 3’ loopt wordt gemaakt m.b.v DNA polymerase III
4. De lagging strand template die van 3’ naar 5’ loopt wordt in segmenten gevormt, namelijk Okazaki-
fragmenten.
5. RNA primase legt een RNA primer neer.
6. DNA polymerase III legt de gecomplimenteerde baseparen neer. (P III vervangt het RNA primer)
7. DNA Polymerase I verwijderd de Okazaki fragmenten
8. DNA ligase bindt de Okazaki-fragmenten met elkaar.

Replicatie machine: Replicatie van DNA wordt uitgevoerd door de replicatie machine (eiwit cluster), DNA
polymerase (maakt nieuwe DNA keten)

Helicase: gebruikt energie uit ATP hydrolyse om de dubbele helix te openen
Primase/ RNA polymerase: Maakt RNA-primer.
Sliding clamp: Houdt DNA polymerase gebonden aan de DNA streng
Clamp loader: Plaatsen van de sliding clamp door hydrolyse van ATP. Eenmalig op de leading streng. Voor elk
nieuw Okazaki fragment op de lagging streng.
Enkelstrengs bindings eiwitten: binding aan enkelstrengs DNA om vorming van dubbele helix te voorkomen.

DNA polymerase 1: Deze reparatie polymerase is betrokken bij excisie met 3'-5 'en 5'-3' exonuclease activiteit
en verwerking van Okazaki-fragmenten die tijdens achterblijvende streng synthese.
DNA polymerase 2: De belangrijkste rol van Pol II wordt dat het vermogen om polymerase-activiteit te richten
op de replicatievork worden geïnstalleerd en hielp Pol III bypass terminal mismatches.
DNA polymerase 3: is het primaire enzym betrokken bij DNA-replicatie.

Polymerase: is een enzymcomplex betrokken bij de DNA-replicatie.
Helicases: ontspannen en te ontwarren
Primase: synthetiseert een korte ribonucleïnezuur (RNA) naar primer DNA-synthese
Methylasen: voeg methylgroepen aan stikstofbasen
Deaminases: neem aminogroepen van stikstofbasen
Ligases: katalyseren de vorming van een enkele fosfodiesterbinding
Nucleases zijn Exonucleasen: verwijder bases van de uiteinden van de DNA-strengen en endonucleases:
knippen DNA strengen intern.
