Question
Chapter 14, Problem 14.49P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The optimal alignment for the interaction between guanine and adenine is to be drawn. Number of hydrogen bonds in the interaction is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The two strands are held together relatively strongly by hydrogen bonding among the nitrogenous bases. Hydrogen bond is between the hydrogen-bond donors and one hydrogen-bond acceptor. Guanine has two hydrogen bond donors and one hydrogen bond acceptor, adenine has one hydrogen bond acceptor and one hydrogen bond donor and cytosine has two hydrogen bond acceptors and one hydrogen bond donor.

Figure 14-31a (p. 716) shows how hydrogen bonding accounts for the fact that guanine is complementary to cytosine, giving rise to three simultaneous hydrogen bonds in the interaction. Draw the optimal alignment for the interaction between guanine and adenine. How many simultaneous hydrogen bonds exist in that interaction?
(i) A segment of DNA containing 20 base pairs includes 7 guanine residues. How many adenine residues are in the segment? How many uracil residues are in the segment??
