Concept explainers
To determine: The base sequence of the given complementary strand.
Introduction:
There are two types of nitrogenous bases: purines and pyrimidines. Adenine and guanine are the purine bases with double ring structures. Cytosine and thymine are the pyrimidines bases that have single ring structure. These bases pair with their complementary bases and form a
To determine: The special type of sequence which is contained in the DNA segment.
Introduction:
Some DNA segments have regions with inverted repeats which are in such way that an inverted and sequences which are self-complementary in a strand is repeated in the opposite direction in the complementary strand. This DNA segment is known as palindrome.
To determine: Whether the double-stranded DNA has the potential to form any alternative structures.
Introduction:
Some DNA sequences adopt unusual structures. The sequence dependent structural differences which are found in large chromosomes could affect the
