,BioInformatics - ANS the application of information technology to molecular genetics
Uses algorithms to store and analyze biological data
Shows very small differences in DNA that can lead to curing of diseases and detection early.
Pharmacogenomics - ANS Genetic basis for heritable and inter-individual variation in drug
responses
Gene - ANS basic unit of inheritance in all living organisms responsible for a morphological
trait
Segment of DNA that specifies a morphological trait
Alphabet Analogy - ANS Letters: ATGC (nucleotides)
Words: Codons
Definitions: Amino Acid
Fred Griffith (1928) - ANS Bacterial Transformation Experiments
Bacterium changed its form and function
Found the transforming principle
Transforming Principle - ANS The process of converting from one strain of DNA to another
Oswald Avery, Maclyn McCarty, and Colin MacLeod - ANS Experimentally suggested the
transforming substance is DNA

, Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase - ANS Bacteriophage experiments
Viral reproduction experiments where radioisotopes were used
Phages used to determine that DNA was genetic material as the radioactivity of DNA
determines radioactivity of the bacteria.
Watson and Crick - ANS Found that DNA has the structure of a double helix
Watson and Crick Approaches - ANS Model Building
X-Ray diffraction pattern favored a DNA helix of a constant diameter
Structure of DNA - ANS Double stranded helix
Polynucleotide chaines of ATGC
5' to 3' where strands run antiparallel
Pairing complementary via hydrogen bonds
Bases form the core
Sugar Phosphate are on the outside
Chargaff's Rule - ANS A=T and C=G
(A+G)/(C+T)=1
