08 DNA Part 1 - Structure And Function
Update: 2025-02-18
Description
Tune into BioSpeak as we uncover DNA’s essential structure and its role in carrying genetic information across organisms. Discover how DNA’s double-helix structure, made of nucleotide building blocks, differs in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, where eukaryotic DNA forms linear strands while prokaryotic DNA is circular. Learn about DNA’s nucleotide composition, the “ladder” model, and how the molecule stores genetic code that directs protein synthesis. We’ll also discuss how DNA coils around histones to form chromosomes, enabling compact storage within cells. Get ready for an engaging introduction to DNA’s structure and vital functions in this first episode of a two-part series on life’s genetic blueprint.
