There are four potential types of interactions with complementary base pairs, what are they and give an example of each
Answer
DNA, hydrogen-bond donors (for example, the amino group of adenine in Figure 2.13C and D),
hydrogen-bond acceptors (for example, the N7 nitrogen atom of guanine in Figure 2.13A and B),
hydrophobic groups (for example, the methyl group of thymine in Figure 2.13C and D),
nonpolar hydrogen atoms (for example, the ring proton of cytosine in Figure 2.13A and B).
