DNA is the most common genetic material.
It is found by watson and crick
It is made up of nucleotides
Nucleotides include sugar phosphate and a nitrogen base
It is a double helix model
Right handedly coiled
Both the strands are in anti parallel direction i.e one on 5’-3’and other in 3’-5’ direction
In DNA we have deoxyribose sugar and four different nitrogen bases
-adenine
-guanine
-cytosine
-thymine
Where adenine binds with thymine with 2 hydrogen bonds
And guanine binds with cytosine with 3 hydrogen bonds
The every 360* turn its called pitch
We have 10 base pairs in each turn
The pitch is about 36A*
The distance between two base pairs is about 3.6A*
Distance between the two strands is about 20A* which is maintained by the hydrogen bonds between base pairs
