Biochemist Erwin Chargaff was the first to note that, in DNA, [A] = [T] and [G]= [C], equalities now called Chargaff’s rule. Using this rule, determine the percentages of all the bases in DNA that is 20% thymine.

In the Watson-Crick model for the DNA double helix (B form) the A-T and G-C base pairs share all but one of the following properties. Which is the exception? None of the proton-binding groups in the purine and pyrimidine bases is in its charged or ionized form. The plane of the base pair is roughly perpendicular to the axis of the helix in each case. The number of hydrogen bonds formed between the two bases of the base pair is the same. O The distance between the two glycosidic (base-sugar) bonds is the same in both base pairs, within a few tenths of an angstrom.

When DNA is heated, it denatures; that is, the strands separate because hydrogen bonds are broken and some base-stacking and hydrophobic interactions are disrupted. The higher the temperature, the larger the number of hydrogen bonds that are broken. After reviewing DNA base pair structure, determine which of the following molecules will denature first as the temperature is raised. Explain your reasoning. a. 5′-GCATTTCGGCGCGTTA-3′ 3′-CGTAAAGCCGCGCAAT-5′ b. 5′-ATTGCGCTTATATGCT-3′ 3′-TAACGCGAATATACGA-5′
A duplex DNA molecule contains a random sequence of the four nucleotides with equal proportions of each. What is the average spacing between consecutive occurrences of the sequence 5'-ATGC-3'? Between consecutive occurrences of the sequence 5'-TACGGC-3'?
if this DNA has a molecular weight of 1.20 ×108 Dalton which contains a head in a about 200 nm long. Calculate the length of the DNA assuming the molecular weight of a nucleotide pair is 600 Dalton and assume that the DNA is a B-form and that there are 10 base pair per turn which makes is 34 Å per turn. ( 1nm = 10Å)
In the Watson-Crick DNA base pairing model, Adenine (A) binds to thymine (T), guanine (G) binds to cytosine (C).Draw the structures of thymine and adenine stabilized by Watson-Crick base pair interaction. Also draw the structure of the amide group of glutamine in an interaction of this T-A pair in a way that maximally satisfies the hydrogen bonding capacity of amide.
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'
In 1950, Edwin Chargaff discovered that the ratios of A:T bases, and of G:C bases, in DNA is always 1:1. This discovery became known as Chargaff's rules and was important in helping determine the structure of DNA. The percentages of adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T) bases in DNA from three species are shown below. Select the best answer for each of the questions. Q1: Does the distribution of nucleotide bases in species 1 and 2 in the table follow Chargaff’s rules? Why or why not? Q2: Based on the information in the table, what is the % cytosine in species 3?
Base analysis of DNA from maize (corn) shows it to have 23 mole percent cytosine (moles per 100 moles total nucleotide). What are the percentages of the other three bases?
