double helix

listen to the pronunciation of double helix
English - Turkish
ikiz heliks : aksi yönlerde dönen spiral yapı (DNA moleküllerinde olduğu şekilde)
English - English
A metonym for DNA
Two helical-shaped DNA strands wrapped around each other
The coiled structure of double-stranded DNA in which strands linked by hydrogen bonds form a spiral configuration, with the two strands oriented in opposite directions. a shape consisting of two parallel spirals that twist around the same centre, found especially in the structure of DNA
The three-dimensional structure of DNA, in which two strands are coiled in a helix (spiral shape)
The twisted-ladder shape that two linear strands of DNA assume when complementary nucleotides on opposing strands bond together
The spiraling lattice of double-stranded DNA that contains the genetic information pertinent to the organism The sides of the lattice - its spine - are composed of sugar and phosphate molecules The crosspieces, or rungs, are made up of base pairs, also known as nucleotides
spiral arrangement of two intertwining DNA molecules held tightly by hydrogen bonding between side chain bases
The structural arrangement of DNA, which looks something like a long ladder twisted into a helix, or coil
The spiraling lattice of double-stranded DNA that contains the genetic information pertinent to the organism The sides of the lattice -- its spine -- are composed of sugar and phosphate molecules The crosspieces, or rungs, are made up of base pairs, also known as nucleotides
The shape that two linear strands of DNA assume when bonded together Return to alphabet
A term often used to describe the configuration of the DNA molecule The helix consists of two spiralling strands of nucleotides (a sugar, phosphate, and base), joined crosswise by specific pairing of the bases
Describes the coiling of the antiparallel strands of the DNA molecule, resembling a spiral staircase in which the paired bases form the steps and the sugar-phosphate backbones form the rails
The structural arrangement of DNA, which looks something like an immensely long ladder twisted into a helix, or coil  The sides of the "ladder" are formed by a backbone of sugar and phosphate molecules, and the "rungs" consist of nucleotide bases joined weakly in the middle by hydrogen bonds
The spiraling lattice that two individual strands of DNA assume when bonded together by base pairing The sides of the lattice -- its spine -- are composed of sugar and phosphate molecules The crosspieces, or rungs, are made up of base pairs, also known as nucleotides
The shape that two linear strands of DNA assume when bonded together
A type of secondary structure of DNA molecules in which two antiparallel polynucleotide strands are coiled in a right-handed manner about the same axis
a pair of parallel helices intertwined about a common axis; "the structure of the DNA molecule is a double helix"
The twisted-ladder shape that two linear strands of DNA assume when complementary nucleotides on opposing strands bond together Source : Human Genome Project Information
a pair of parallel helices intertwined about a common axis; "the structure of the DNA molecule is a double helix
the natural form of DNA, refering to its two complementary neucleotide strands which wind into a spiral shape due to hydrogen bonds
The physical structure of DNA, consisting of two parallel strands of DNA coiled helically
A term often used to describe the configuration of the DNA molecule The helix consists of two spiraling strands of nucleotides (a sugar, phosphate, and base), joined crosswise by specific pairing of the bases See also Deoxyribonucleic acid; Base; Base pair
twisted double spiral structure of DNA molecules composed of two linear strands of nucleotides joined by hydrogen bonds
The natural coiled conformation of two complementary, antiparallel DNA chains This structure was first put forward by Watson and Crick in 1953
A term used to describe the configuration of a DNA molecule The helix consists of two spiraling strands of nucleotides held together with chemical bonds
