In analyzing the base composition of a DNA sample, a student loses the information on pyrimidine content. The purine content is A = 27% and G = 23%. Using Chargaff’s rule, reconstruct the missing data and list the base composition of the DNA sample. (Include a brief explanation of how you got your results).
You are trying to determine the base content for a number of samples in the lab (mouse DNA, bacterial DNA, single-stranded DNA virus and double-stranded RNA virus). Unfortunately, you failed to use an alcohol-proof marker and during the ethanol precipitation of your samples the labels came off the tubes. You finish the experiment anyway and try to use the data to determine the samples. Can you determine the source of each sample based on your results?
