Gene concept :
One gene one polypeptide
Conclusion
Beadle and Tatum proposed the "one gene one
enzyme" theory.
Conclusion
Many proteins are not enzymes
3) Hershey- Chase(1952)
- used radioactive sulfur and phosphorus to
trace the fates of protein and DNA, respectively
of T2 phages that infected bacterial cells. They
wanted to see which of these molecules
entered and could reprogram the cells to make
more phages.
Learning Outcomes :
1.2 Describe and compare the structures of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
Learning Outcomes :
6.1 Explain the concept of one gene one polypeptide
Results:
When proteins were labeled (batch 1), radioactivity
remained outside the cells; but when DNA was labeled
(batch 2), radioactivity was found inside the cells.
Bacterial cells with radioactive phage DNA released
new phages with some radioactive phosphorus.
Conclusion:
Phage DNA entered bacterial cells, but phage did not.
Hershey and Chase concluded that DNA, not protein,
function as the genetic material of phage T2.
