Summary:In this passage, sulfur is being added to sugar-phosphate DNA to modify synthetic oligonucleotides. Nature has been using phosphorothioate modidfications of DNA for a while now.


Questions:
What are the major functions of nucleic acids in the cell?It identifies the DNA
What are the differences in RNA and DNA? DNA carries information while RNA makes proteins and acts as the messenger.
List three things you learned from this article in your own words.
I learned that sulfur can be added to DNA and that bacterial genes give bacteria the ability to employ modidfications ontheir own.
What impact would the absence of this organelle have on the cell?Modifications won't be able to be made.
