DNA: Deoxyribonucleic Acid
Watson and Crick
Nitrogen bases make nucleotidesdifferent(A,T,G,C)
Nucleotide is made of a sugar,phosphate anda nitrogen base
DNA is a nucleicacid.The monomer isa nucleotide.
DNA is a double stranded helix
Complimentarybase pairing means:A=T (2)G=C (3)Hydrogen bonds
Chargaff’s rules:#A = #T#G = #C
i.e. 30.9% A 29.4% T 19.8% C 19.9% G
If given A = 30%,can you calculateC?
