About Lesson

Watson and Crick DNA Model

  • DNA molecule consists of two parallel chains of polynucleotides forming a double helical structure.
  • Both the strands are spirally coiled.
  • The two strands are anti-parallel.
  • Both the base pair have sugar-phosphate chain on outside and purine and pyrimidine base on inside of the helix.
  • Both the strands are joined together by weak hydrogen bond.
  • The distance between two strand is 20 A0
  • There are 10 base pairs on complete turn ( 34 A0). The distance between two base pair is 3.4 A0.

A purine base is attached to its specific base. i.e. A=T and G ≡ C

  • A DNA molecule contains 28% adenine, 24% Guanine, 20% cytosine and 28% thymine.
  • Nucleotides in a helix are joined together by phosphodiester bonds.
