Summary Introduction
To review:
Prevention of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) binding protein from identifying double stranded ribonucleic acid(RNA) molecule.
Introduction:
DNA is also known as a polynucleotide chain. Nucleotides in DNA molecule are present in major and minor grooves and its backbone is made up of sugar and phosphate groups.

As you should recall, DNA, when not being actively transcribed, has a double helical structure. This portion of the DNA has had the two strands separated in preparation of transcribing for a needed protein. The following is one of the two complimentary strands of DNA:
3' - AACCAGTGGTATGGTGCGATGATCGATTCGAGGCTAAAATACGGATTCGTACGTAGGCACT - 5'
Q: Based on written convention, i.e. the 3'-5' orientation, is this the coding strand or the template strand? ______________________________
Q: Assuming this strand extends from base #1 to #61 (going left to right), interpret the correctly transcribed mRNA and translated polypeptide for bases 24 - 47:
mRNA: ___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-
polypeptide chain: ________--________--________--________--________--________--________--________
Describe the d=features of the following DNA-binding domains and how they interact with DNA.
Helix-turn-Helix
Zinc Finger
Leucine Zipper
Helix-loop-Helix
The formation of a double-stranded structure must obey the rule that adenine hydrogen bonds to thymine (or uracil in RNA) and cytosine hydrogen bonds to guanine. Discuss reasons why complementarity is an important feature of DNA and RNA structure and function.
