DNA structure and function explained through its key components and processes in cells.
- The DNA Aufbau consists of a double helix structure running antiparallel, containing genetic information through specific base pair sequences
- Prokaryoten DNA exists as a single circular chromosome with plasmids, while in Eukaryoten DNA is organized within the cell nucleus as linear chromosomes
- DNA replication occurs through semiconservative replication during cell cycle interphase
- Proteinbiosynthese involves transcription in the nucleus and translation at ribosomes
- Mutations can occur at chromosomal level affecting DNA structure and function
