Chapter 4, Problem 9TYPSS

Make a concept map (see BioSkills 12 ) that relates DNA's primary structure to its secondary structure. Your diagram should include deoxyribonucleotides, hydrophobic interactions, purines, pyrimidines, phosphodiester linkages, DNA primary structure, DNA secondary structure, complementary base pairing, and antiparallel strands.

What are the complementary base pairs in DNA-RNA interactions? Answer format: Base 1(one letter symbol)-Base 2 (one letter symbol, or B-B*(hypothetical N-base) In the lengthening of a polynucleotide chain, which type of nucleotide subunit (name please not the formula) would bond to its 3’ end?  How many 3’,5’-phosphodiester linkages are present in a tetranucleotide segment of a nucleic acid?
To create a DNA:RNA hybrid from a short stretch of DNA with the sequence 5'-GGCTAAGTATGCCTAGTAGC-3', design the corresponding RNA sequence. Indicate the sequence in a 5' to 3' manner. What type of helix (A, B or Z) will this double-stranded nucleic acid form?
Consider normal B-form DNA. It forms a regular antiparallel double-helical structure with Watson-Crick base-pairing mediated through hydrogen bonding. The base pairs all stack upon one another, with 3.4 Å spacing between them. DNA strands having a complementary sequence will spontaneously form a double-helix in an aqueous solution. In terms of energy, what primarily drives helix formation? O Positive Entropy from base stacking van der Waals interactions O Hoogsteen interactions Positive Enthalpy from Hydrogen Bonding between GC and AT pairs Negative Enthalpy from Hydrogen Bonding between GC and AT pairs O Negative Entropy from base stacking
