INTRODUCTION
 DNA is a molecule composed of 2
strands running in opposite directions to
form a double helix structure carrying
genetic information.
 Each strands composed of de-oxy ribose
sugar molecules linked together by
phosphate linkage.
 The two strands are held together along
their length with hydrogen bonds
between the bases.
3
DNA DENATURATION 4
DNA denaturation refers to the
melting of doubled stranded
DNA to generate two single
strands by breaking the
hydrogen bonds.
CAUSES OF DENATURATION
Denaturation can occur when nucleic acids are subjected
to:
 elevated temperature
 extremes of pH
 non-physiological concentrations of salt, organic solvents,
urea, or other chemical agents.
5
Elevated temperature
 The most common type of denaturation
is thermal denaturation
Tm: Temperature at which DNA is half
denatured.
• Above Tm DNA is single stranded
• Below Tm DNA is double stranded
6
Extremes of pH
 At high pH, the hydroxide ions (negatively charged ions) can
pull hydrogen ions from base pairs (forming H bond between
two strands) causing them to separate.
 High pH will alter the charged groups that are involved in H-
bond
 H-bond cannot occur at pH>11.3 and DNA denatures
7
Non physiological salts
 Low salt concentration could also denature DNA double
strands by removing ions that stabilize the negative charges
on the two strands from each other.
 The Tm value is lowered by the addition of Urea. In 8M urea,
Tm is decreased by nearly 20 degree celsius
 DNA can be denatured with 95% formamide at room
temperature only.
8
Characters of Denatured DNA
 Hyperchromic: increase the absorbance(A260) upon
denaturation
 The rate of increase in absorbance is directly
proportional to the rate of denaturation
 Viscosity decreases upon denaturation
9
DNA Renaturation
 Renaturation or annealing:
is the formation of base repairs and complementary strands of
DNA come back together.
 Renaturation occurs if double stranded DNA is heated above
Tm then the temperature is slowly decreased under
appropriate conditions
10
DENATURATION AND
RENATURATION OF
DNA
11
Applications :
 Understanding the genome size and complexity.
 Understanding genetic relatedness.
 Understanding relative proportion of repetitive sequences.
12
Conclusions
 These processes form the basis of many important techniques for DNA
manipulating. Though there are many techniques associated with DNA
denaturation, the end result is the same that is to break the bonds
between the strands and new molecules are formed which can then be
compared as desired. The ideal process of DNA denaturation depends on
what the DNA needs to be use for, how accurate and specific the
comparisons need to be and the volume of the material that has to be
processed.

  • 1. ZOOLOGY, JIWAJI UNIVERSITY, GWALIOR 1 TOPIC:- DNA: DENATURATION AND RENATURATION Dr. Ramkumar Lodhi Conservation Biology Lab ramkumarlodhi73@gmail.com
  • 2. SYNOPSIS  Introduction:- What is DNA  DNA denaturation  Causes  Elevated temperature  Extremes of pH  Non physiological salts  Characters of denatured DNA  DNA renaturation  Applications  Conclusion  References 2
  • 3. INTRODUCTION  DNA is a molecule composed of 2 strands running in opposite directions to form a double helix structure carrying genetic information.  Each strands composed of de-oxy ribose sugar molecules linked together by phosphate linkage.  The two strands are held together along their length with hydrogen bonds between the bases. 3
  • 4. DNA DENATURATION 4 DNA denaturation refers to the melting of doubled stranded DNA to generate two single strands by breaking the hydrogen bonds.
  • 5. CAUSES OF DENATURATION Denaturation can occur when nucleic acids are subjected to:  elevated temperature  extremes of pH  non-physiological concentrations of salt, organic solvents, urea, or other chemical agents. 5
  • 6. Elevated temperature  The most common type of denaturation is thermal denaturation Tm: Temperature at which DNA is half denatured. • Above Tm DNA is single stranded • Below Tm DNA is double stranded 6
  • 7. Extremes of pH  At high pH, the hydroxide ions (negatively charged ions) can pull hydrogen ions from base pairs (forming H bond between two strands) causing them to separate.  High pH will alter the charged groups that are involved in H- bond  H-bond cannot occur at pH>11.3 and DNA denatures 7
  • 8. Non physiological salts  Low salt concentration could also denature DNA double strands by removing ions that stabilize the negative charges on the two strands from each other.  The Tm value is lowered by the addition of Urea. In 8M urea, Tm is decreased by nearly 20 degree celsius  DNA can be denatured with 95% formamide at room temperature only. 8
  • 9. Characters of Denatured DNA  Hyperchromic: increase the absorbance(A260) upon denaturation  The rate of increase in absorbance is directly proportional to the rate of denaturation  Viscosity decreases upon denaturation 9
  • 10. DNA Renaturation  Renaturation or annealing: is the formation of base repairs and complementary strands of DNA come back together.  Renaturation occurs if double stranded DNA is heated above Tm then the temperature is slowly decreased under appropriate conditions 10
  • 12. Applications :  Understanding the genome size and complexity.  Understanding genetic relatedness.  Understanding relative proportion of repetitive sequences. 12
  • 13. Conclusions  These processes form the basis of many important techniques for DNA manipulating. Though there are many techniques associated with DNA denaturation, the end result is the same that is to break the bonds between the strands and new molecules are formed which can then be compared as desired. The ideal process of DNA denaturation depends on what the DNA needs to be use for, how accurate and specific the comparisons need to be and the volume of the material that has to be processed. 13
