harmless live bacteria (rough) mixed with heat-killed pathogenic bacteria (smooth) causes fatal disease in mice a substance passed from dead bacteria to live bacteria to change their phenotype
AP Biology
Transforming Principle
mice die
mice live
mice live
mice die
Transformation = change in phenotype something in heat-killed bacteria could still transmit AP Biology disease-causing properties
1944
purified both DNA & proteins separately from Streptococcus pneumonia bacteria
which will transform non-pathogenic bacteria?
virulent bacteria
mice die

DNA labeled with 32P T2 bacteriophages are labeled with radioactive isotopes S vs. P
Which radioactive marker is found inside the cell? Which molecule carries viral genetic info? AP Biology
35S
32P
AP Biology
S phage
radioactive proteins stayed in supernatant therefore viral protein did NOT enter bacteria
32P
phage
radioactive DNA stayed in pellet therefore viral DNA did enter bacteria

base pairing suggests that it will allow each side to serve as a template for a new strand
It has not escaped our notice that the specific pairing we have postulated immediately suggests a possible copying mechanism for the genetic AP Biology material. Watson & Crick
