21 Απρ 2015 · Abstract and Figures. The proposal of a double-helical structure for DNA over 60 years ago provided an eminently satisfying explanation for the heritability of genetic information.
DNA encodes information through the order, or sequence, of the nucleotides along each strand. Each base—A, C, T, or G—can be considered as a letter in a four-letter alphabet that spells out biological messages in the chemical structure of the DNA.
DNA SEQUENCING AND GENE STRUCTURE. Nobel lecture, 8 December, 1980. by. WALTER GILBERT. Harvard University, The Biological Laboratories, Cambridge, Massachusetts. 02138, USA. When we work out the structure of DNA molecules, we examine the fundamen-tal level that underlies all process in living cells.
DNA structure. DNA is made up of molecules called nucleotides. Each nucleotide contains a phosphate group, a sugar group and a nitrogen base. The four types of nitrogen bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C). The order of these bases is what determines DNA's instructions, or genetic code.
DNA (deoyxribose nucleic acid), discovered in 1869 by Friedrich Miescher, is composed of four bases (guanine, cytosine, adenine, thymine). The bases are connected to a sugar (deoxyribose), and sugars are interconnected through phosphate linkages to form a long, unbranched chain.
