Chapter 4, Problem 6P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The composition of [T] and [C] for a double-helical strand of DNA molecules if [A]=0.030 and [G]=0.24 should be determined.

Concept introduction:

According to base pair rule, (A) is always equal to (T) and (G) is always equal to (C) for a double strand helix of DNA that is

Adenine (A) =Thymine (T) and

Guanine (G) = Cytosine (C)

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The composition for [A], [T], [G], and [C] of complementary strand should be determined.

Concept introduction:

According to the rule, there are four nucleotides in DNA; they are Adenine (A), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G), and Thymine (G).

Base pair in DNA are A=T and G=T.

. A viral DNA is analyzed and found to have the following base com- position, in mole percent: A = 32, G = 16, T = 40, C = 12. (a) What can you conclude about the structure of this DNA? (b) What kind of secondary structure do you think it would have?
29.) equalities now called Chargaff's rule. Biochemist Erwin Chargaff was the first to note that, in DNA, [A]=[T] and [G]=[C], A) Using this rule, determine the percentages of all the bases in DNA that is 20% thymine. [A] = [C] = [G] [T] = 20% %3D - B) If a single strand of RNA is 20% uracil, what can you predict about the percentages of the remaining bases and why?
pppApCpCpUpApGpApU-OH(a) Using the straight-chain sugar convention, write the structure of the DNA strand that encoded this short stretch of RNA.(b) Using the simplest convention for representing the DNA base sequence, write the structure of the nontemplate DNA strand.
