Exercise 2

Calculate the approximate number of base pairs in four helical turns of the B-form DNA (based on the values from early X-ray diffraction structures). Calculate the approximate number of base pairs in four helical turns of the B-form DNA (based on the values for DNA in solution). Calculate the vertical length of the four helical turns in the B form of DNA.
B. Calculate the approximate number of base pairs in four helical turns of the A-form DNA (based on the values from early X-ray diffraction structures).
