ITS COMPONENTS
GROUP 4 – SECTION B
• Informational molecule
• Two kinds:
• DNA – deoxyribonucleic acid
• RNA – ribonucleic acid
• DNA – blueprint of living organisms
• RNA – machinery for the expression of the coded information
in DNA to proteins
• mRNA – carrier of genetic information encoded in the DNA
1. DNA
2. RNA
• Primary function of DNA – storage of genetic material
• Central Dogma of LIFE: flow of genetic material
• DNA → mRNA → protein
↑
Replication → transcription → translation

• Bial’s test
• Test reagent dehydrates pentose to form
furfural. Furfural further reacts with orcinol
and the iron present in the reagent produce a
bluish product.
• Reagent: concentrted HCL, orcinol, ferric
chloride
