Genetics molecules like DNA and RNA have the ability to carry genetic instructions and replicate themselves perfectly. DNA contains genes which provide the code for protein production. The genetic code is expressed through transcription of DNA to mRNA and translation of mRNA to proteins. DNA replication ensures genetic information is preserved as cells divide. Mutations can occur through changes in DNA sequence or structure and generate genetic variability in populations.
The slide presenting the Importance of genetic code and discusses how does the genetic code deduced that brings in the entire understanding of Genetic today.
DNA is a double helical structure that transfers the genetic information from one generation to another. it consists of two strands with the four nucleotide basis .The four nucleotides contains adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine .These four nuclic basis are such arranged and coiled with the help of hydrogen bonds and forms the helical structure of DNA. In RNA the thymine is replaced with uracil. Here you will learn the replication ,transcription and translation process in DNA.
DNA & RNA the basic bio molecules of heredity are very complex molecules with definite structure and functions. Few of the basic structures and functions are described in the presentation.
DNA and RNA molecules are linear polymers built from individual units called nucleotides connected by bonds called phosphodiester linkages. DNA and RNA are used to store and pass genetic information from one generation to the next.
Both RNA and DNA are made of nucleotides and take similar shapes. Both contain five-carbon sugars, phosphate groups, and nucleobases (nitrogenous bases). They both play important roles in protein synthesis. DNA has the five-carbon sugar deoxyribose and RNA has the five-carbon sugar ribose, hence their names

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

identified by
Friedrich Meischer
in 1868
In 1953, James Watson and
Francis Crick, described a very
simple but famous Double Helix
model for the structure of DNA.

obtained suggested
several
structural
features of DNA

Salient features of the Double-helix structure of DNA:
It is made of two polynucleotide chains, where the backbone
is constituted by sugar-phosphate, and the bases project inside.
The two chains have anti-parallel polarity. It means, if one
chain has the polarity 5’→3’, the other has 3’→5’

16. The bases in two strands are paired through hydrogen bond (H-bonds)
forming base pairs (bp). Adenine forms two hydrogen bonds with
Thymine from opposite strand and vice-versa. Similarly, Guanine is
bonded with Cytosine with three H-bonds.
Hydrogen bond: A chemical bond consisting of a hydrogen atom between two
electronegative atoms (e.g., oxygen or nitrogen) with one side be a covalent bond
and the other being an ionic bond.
Based on the observation of Erwin Chargaff that for a double stranded
DNA, the ratios between Adenine and Thymine; and Guanine and
Cytosine are constant and equals one.

18. Experimental level Conceptual level
For each type of cell, extract the
chromosomal material. This can be
done in a variety of ways, including the
use of high salt, detergent, or mild alkali
treatment. Note: The chromosomes
contain both DNA and protein.
1.
Remove the protein. This can be done in
several ways, including treament with
protease.
2.
Hydrolyze the DNA to release the bases
from the DNA strands. A common way
to do this is by strong acid treatment.
3.
Separate the bases by chromatography.
Paper chromatography provides an easy
way to separate the four types of bases.
(The technique of chromatography is
described in the Appendix.)
4.
Extract bands from paper into solutions
and determine the amounts of each base
by spectroscopy. Each base will absorb
light at a particular wavelength. By
examining the absorption profile of a
sample of base, it is then possible to
calculate the amount of the base.
(Spectroscopy is described in the
Appendix.)

Compare the base content in the DNA
from different organisms.

RNA. Ribonucleic acid
Usually single stranded and
helical in structure.
But double stranded also
present in some viruses.
Nucleotides are:
• Guanine, adenine.
• Cytosine, uracil.
23. Types of RNA
In all prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, three main classes of RNA
molecules exist:
1) Messenger RNA(m RNA)
2) Transfer RNA (t RNA)
3) Ribosomal RNA (r RNA)
The other are:
small nuclear RNA (SnRNA),
micro RNA(mi RNA) and
small interfering RNA(Si RNA) and
heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA).
24. Messenger RNA (m-RNA)
All members of the class function as messengers carrying the information in a gene to
the protein synthesizing machinery
The coding region or sequence encodes for the synthesis of a protein.
A gene is a locus (or region) of DNA which contains information to
build a protein.
A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity.
25. The central dogma of molecular biology has been described as
"DNA makes RNA and RNA makes protein”
26. Transfer RNA are the smallest of three major species of RNA
molecules
They transfer the amino acids from cytoplasm to the protein
synthesizing machinery, hence the name tRNA.
There are at least 20 species of tRNA one corresponding to
each of the 20 amino acids required for protein synthesis.
Transfer RNA (t-RNA)
1) Primary structure- The nucleotide
sequence.
2) Secondary structure- Each single t-
RNA shows extensive internal base
pairing and acquires a clover leaf
like structure. The structure is
stabilized by hydrogen bonding
between the bases.
3) Tertiary structure
Structure
27. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)
Ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) is the RNA component of
the ribosome, and is essential for protein synthesis in all living
organisms.
rRNA component performs the peptidyl transferase (peptide
bond formation) activity and thus is an enzyme (a ribozyme)

30. Translation
In translation, messenger RNA
(mRNA) - produced by
transcription from DNA - is
decoded by a ribosome to
produce a specific amino acid
chain, or polypeptide.
Is the process in which
cellular ribosomes
create proteins.
Protein

31. Translation
The genetic code
A. The genetic code is redundant.
• More than one codon can specify
the same amino acid.
A. The genetic code is degenerate.
• In most instances the third base is
the degenerate base.
A. The genetic code is nearly universal.
• Living beings has the same code,
only a few rare exceptions have
been noted.
• Encode the same 20 amino acid
with the same 64 triplets.
There are 20 amino acid, but 64 bases combinations or 64 tRNAs
The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded within genetic
material (DNA or mRNA sequences) is translated into proteins by living cells.
So codons and amino acids are linked with by the genetic code

Translation have directionality, begins at 5’ end of mRNA. 5’ 3’
34. Replication
Step one:
- An enzyme called Helicase breaks the hydrogen bonds between the bases of the two
antiparallel strands forming a replication fork.
- DNA Gyrase (also called Topoisomerase) relieves tension that builds up as a result of
unwinding.
- Single strand binding proteins (SSBs) help to stabilise the single stranded DNA.
35. Replication
Step two:
- RNA polymerase (also known as RNA Primase) synthesizes short RNA
nucleotides sequences that act as primers (starters). These essentially provide a
starting point for DNA replication.
36. Replication
Step three:
- DNA Polymerase III can now start synthesising the new DNA strand using free DNA
nucleotides. However, DNA polymerase can only read the original template (parent strand)
in the 3’ → 5’ direction (making DNA 5’ → 3’). This is not a problem on the leading strand.
- On the lagging strand DNA polymerase synthesise short fragments of DNA in-between
each of the RNA primers.
37. Replication
Step four:
- DNA Polymerase I now removes the RNA primers and replaces them with DNA
- DNA Ligase joins the DNA fragments of the lagging strand together to form one
continuous length of DNA.

41. MUTATIONS
Types of mutations – 1.Genetics:
There are many different ways that DNA can be changed, resulting in
different types of mutation.
Substitution
A substitution is a mutation that exchanges one base for another.
Such a substitution could:
Insertion
Insertions are mutations in which extra base pairs are inserted into
a new place in the DNA
Deletion
Deletions are mutations in which a section of DNA is lost.
1. Change a codon to one that encodes a different amino acid and
cause a small change in the protein produced.
2. Change a codon to one that encodes the same amino acid and
causes no change in the protein produced.
3. Change an amino-acid-coding codon to a single "stop" codon
and cause an incomplete protein.
A mutation is a change in DNA: genes, chromosomes or genomes
42. MUTATIONS
Types of mutations – 2. Chromosomals:
A chromosome mutation is an change that occurs in a chromosome.
These changes are most often brought on by problems that occur
during meiosis or by mutagens (chemicals, radiation, etc.).
Chromosome mutations can result in changes in the number of
chromosomes in a cell or changes in the structure of a chromosome.
Chromosome Structure
a) Translocation: The joining of a piece of a chromosome to a non-
homologous chromosome.
b) Deletion: This mutation results from the breakage of a chromosome in
which the genetic material becomes lost during cell division.
c) Duplication: Duplications are produced when extra copies of genes are
generated on a chromosome.
a) Inversion: In an inversion, the broken chromosome segment is reversed
and inserted back into the chromosome.
43.
44. MUTATIONS
Types of mutations – 3.Genomics:
a) Aneuploidy (Aneuploidía): Is the presence of an abnormal number of
chromosomes in a cell, for example a human cell having 45 or 47
chromosomes instead of the usual 46.
Monosomy: refers to lack of one chromosome of the normal
complement. Monosomy of the sex chromosomes (45,X) causes
Turner syndrome.
Trisomy: Down syndrome, trisomy 21. Edwards syndrome, trisomy
18. Patau syndromed, trisomy 13. Klinefelter syndrome, sexual
trisomy XXY
Moploidy or haploidy, is the state where all cells have just one
set of chromosomes beyond the basic set.
Poliploidy (Poliploidía), is the state where all cells have multiple
sets of chromosomes beyond the basic set, usually 3 or more.
Specific terms are triploid (3 sets), tetraploid (4 sets), pentaploid
(5 sets)…
b) Euploidy (Euploidía), is the state of a cell or organism having one or
more than one set of the same set of chromosomes
Chromosome Number Changes
45. The causes of mutations
Mutations happen for several reasons:
1. DNA fails to copy accurately.
1. External influences: Mutations can also be caused by exposure
to specific chemicals or radiation
Cells employ an arsenal of editing mechanisms to correct mistakes
made during DNA replication.
46. The effects of mutations - Evolution
Somatic mutations, occur in non-reproductive cells and won't be passed onto
offspring.
Germ line mutations, occur in reproductive cells like eggs and sperm. The only
mutations that matter to large-scale evolution are those that can be passed on to
offsprin.
http://evolution.berkeley.edu/evolibrary/article/0_0_0/mutations_05
Some regions of DNA control other genes, determining when and where other
genes are turned "on". Mutations in these parts of the genome can substantially
change the way the organism work or is built. A mutation in a gene "conductor"
can cause a cascade of effects in the behavior of genes under its control.
Little mutations with big effects: Mutations to control genes
