Summary Introduction

To draw: A DNA polynucleotide chain (5′—3′) and its complementary strand (3’—5’). Label the components.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
draw a strand of DNA 4 nucleotides long (4 nucleotides on each side). Label the 5’ ends, the 3’ ends, the bond that holds the DNA backbone together, the glycosyl bond, and the bond that holds the nitrogenous bases together. You can use “P” to represent phosphate, and ATCG to represent the nitrogenous bases. Please try to draw the sugar accurately and include any unbonded functional groups, including the oxygen within the molecule.
Given the sequence shown below, write the complementary DNA sequence, using the base-pairing rules, as well as the directionality of the strands: 5'- CGAGGCTAGGTTAACCTG-3'
Permutation is the ordered arrangement of m number items out of a list of n items. For instance, the DNA strand with sequence of 3 bases: G-A-C IS different w ith A-G-C, C-A-G, G-C-A, A-C-G, and C-G-A. From this, we have: P-3) 3! 3x2x1 Therefore, there are 6 dıfferent sequences of DNA strands that can be formed out of 3 given bases. In general, we have this formula for permutation: (n-m)! Count the number of ways in which: Guanıne, Adenine, Cytosine, Thymıne, Cytosine, and Guanıne (6 bases) be sequenced in one DNA strand?
