Why do base pairs never self associate? A x A, U x U, C x C, G x G
Versus
A x T, G x C
it is necessary that smaller pyrimidines (T, C) base pair with larger purines (A, G) to maintain a diameter of 2nm across the double helix DNA. If two purines (A, G) were to base pair, the diameter would be larger than 2nm and if two pyrimidines(T,C) were base pair results in smaller diameter than 2nm. Hydrogen bonding is mainly responsible for holding the two DNA strands together. Adenine (A) is able to form two hydrogen bonds so it get associated with thymine(T), which also able to form two hydrogen bonds. Cytosine(C), which is similar to that of thymine(T), does not base-pair with adenine(A) because their hydrogen bonding does not line them correctly during association. Guanine(G) is able to form three hydrogen bonds so get line up correctly with cytosine(C), which also forms three hydrogen bonds during their association. Guanine(G) which is similar to that of adenine(A), does not base pair with thymine(T) because their hydrogen bonding would not line them correctly during association.
Therefore, base paring is possible only Iin case of A*T, G*C not in A*A, U*U. C*C, G*G.
5) In base pairing, why do we never see AG, GA, CT or TC forming complimentary base pairs?
Biochemistry homework 4. Explain why A-T and G-C are the only base pairs possible in normal double stranded DNA? 5. Match the appropriate characteristics in the right column with the structures of double strand or single strand DNA. (A) double-strand DNA: (B) single-strand DNA: (i) is a rigid rod (ii) shows a greater hyperchromic effect. (iii) contains equal amount of A and T bases. (iv) may contain different amounts of C and G bases. (v) contains U rather than T...
U . U UOPIOLO U NO 6-35. Identify the conjugate acid-base pairs in the following reac- tions: (a) H4NCH,CHANH, + H2O = HENCH-CH3NH2 + HEO" b) O co₂H + ON = coz + ONH* (b) Benzoate Pyridinium Benzoic acid Pyridine
3. Let T (V), and B be an orthonormal basis, so that M(T,B) (5+20 pts) Is T self-adjoint? Why/Why Not? (5+20 pts) Is T normal? Why/Why Not? . (10 pts/box with explanation) Now, let R E L(V) be a self-adjoint operator, SEL(V) a normal operator, and U E L(V) an operator that is neither self-adjoint nor normal; what properties do these operators have-mark R (if true only for F = R) / C (if true only for F = C)...
It is easiest to unwind DNA at regions that contain a lot of A. G/C base pairs B. A/T base pairs C. Mixtures of G/C and A/t base pairs D. Neither is easier.
What two factors contribute to the stabilization of complementary base pairs between A&T and G&C? How are the terms polymorphism and mutation related?
Does perservamine-A induce base pairs substitutions or Frameshifts? Does perservamine-X induce base pairs substitutions or Frameshifts?
Why might the insertion or deletion of three base pairs in a gene be less harmful than the insertion or deletion of only one or two base pairs?
1. What are the differences between an independent versus an interdependent self-construal? 2. Do you think giving is influenced whether we have an independent or interdependent self construal? Why or why not, and if so, in what ways?
pleas help me answer these question and there question ask to draw Who am 1? 2. domain can form hydrogen bonds to mismatched base pairs, for Why are Asp and Glu not repelled by the phosphate backbone of the DNA? example G and T. Draw the h recognized Who am 1? 2. domain can form hydrogen bonds to mismatched base pairs, for Why are Asp and Glu not repelled by the phosphate backbone of the DNA? example G and T....
