DNA

DNA is the organic molecule Deoxyribonucleic Acid The function of DNA is as a molecule that permanently stores the information or instructions necessary to make Proteins in each cell

DNA Structure Monomer Nucleotide The Nucleotide is composed of 1) 5 Carbon Sugar 2) Phosphate Group 3) Nitrogenous Base

Nitrogenous Bases Adenine (A) Cytosine (C) Guanine (G) Thymine (T) The order of the Nitrogenous Bases determines the protein structure

Nucleotide Bonding DNA is a double stranded helical molecule Sugar Phosphate Backbone within strand Base Pairing Between strands

Discovery of DNA Structure Edwin Chargaff Rosalind Franklin James Watson & Francis Crick
