DNA, conceptual computer artwork. Deoxyribonucleic acid is the molecule
DNA, conceptual computer artwork. Deoxyribonucleic acid is the molecule that controls the growth, development and functioning of all living things. It comprises a pair of sugar-phosphate strands spiralling around each other in a double helix. The strands are linked by the interactions between bases on each strand. There are four types of base: adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) and guanine (G). A only links to T, and C only links to G, making each strand complementary to its partner. DNA encodes information as a sequence of base pairs. The strands contain sections called genes, which are recipes for proteins, the main structural and functional components of the body

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of DNA, depicted through a mesmerizing conceptual computer artwork. Deoxyribonucleic acid, commonly known as DNA, serves as the fundamental molecule governing the growth, development, and functioning of all living organisms. The image portrays a pair of sugar-phosphate strands elegantly spiraling around each other in a double helix formation. The interconnection between these strands is facilitated by specific interactions among four types of bases: adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). A remarkable characteristic lies in their complementary nature; A exclusively links with T while C solely pairs with G. This complementary arrangement forms the basis for encoding vital information within DNA's sequence of base pairs. Within this awe-inspiring structure lie sections called genes – akin to recipes – which hold instructions for producing proteins. Proteins serve as essential components responsible for both structural and functional aspects within our bodies. Through this visually stunning representation, we are reminded of the profound significance that DNA holds in understanding life's complexities at a molecular level. It symbolizes not only our biological heritage but also represents an ongoing frontier for scientific exploration and research into genetics and biochemistry. This extraordinary artwork from Science Photo Library invites us to marvel at the wonders hidden within our very own genetic blueprint while appreciating the boundless possibilities it presents for further discoveries in various fields such as medicine, agriculture, and evolutionary biology.
