Question 4.(60 secs Which of the following pair is mismatched? A. B-DNA: dehydrated B.Z-DNA:left-handed helix C.A-DNA: dehydrated D.Z-DNA: no major grooves E.B-DNA: right-handed helix
Select the phrases that accurately describe properties of the most common form of the DNA double helix. There is more than one correct answer. Select all that apply. DNA contains equal amounts of adenine and thymine, and equal amounts of cytosine and guanine. A helical turn consists of about 10 nucleotides. Base pairs have a spacing of 20 A. The phosphodiester bonds between nucleotide residues run in opposite directions in the two strands. The nitrogenous bases are exposed to the solvent, whereas the sugar-phosphate backbone of...

The structures of an A-form and a B-form double helix are different in several respects. Use a drawing to describe how is the position of the base pair within the helix related to the size of the minor groove and major groove. Which of the two forms is favored by RNA, and which is favored by DNA? In which are the base pairs perpendicular to the axis of the helix, and in which are they tilted? Which of the two...
