  41. 3.2 Secondary structure DNA is composed of two strand wound round each other in opposite direction to form a double helix, with the bases on the inside and the sugar- phosphate backbones on the outside. The two DNA chains are held together by hydrogen bonds between pairs of bases; adenine(A) always pairs with thymine(T) and guanine(G) always pairs with cytosine( (C) ). DNA 是由两条方向相反的多脱氧核苷酸链组成的双螺旋,碱 是由两条方向相反的多脱氧核苷酸链组成的双螺旋,碱 基位于螺旋内侧,糖 基位于螺旋内侧,糖- -磷酸骨架位于螺旋外侧 磷酸骨架位于螺旋外侧. .两条链由碱基对之 碱基配对规律为A对 两条链由碱基对之 ,C对 对T, 对G. 间形成的氢键相连 间形成的氢键相连. .碱基配对规律为
