DEFINITION |
A long linear double-stranded polymer formed from nucleotides attached to a deoxyribose backbone and found in the nucleus of a cell; associated with the transmission of genetic information. |
DesignNote |
DNA is a double-stranded molecule held together by weak bonds between base pairs of nucleotides. DNA contain the four nucleotide bases adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). In nature, base pairs form only between A and T and between G and C; thus the base sequence of each single strand can be deduced from that of its partner. |
