    Next step is to work on improving the accurate representation. DNA has a minor groove and a major groove. One of the strands needs to be shifted a bit to create this effect.

    This is well done, but you could make it perfect with a little more information. To draw it to scale it should be 3.4 units (of any unit you choose) from crest to crest on one strand. The strands should be 2 units thick (from top of crest to bottom of trough). That’s pretty minor. The real problem is you have the two strands equally spaced. In DNA there should be 1.2 units between the crests of two adjacent strands to make the “minor groove”. That will leave 2.2 units to the next crest to make the “major groove”. Also, it’s worth pointing out you drew it as a right-handed helix, which is correct, so well done. Finally, this is all for B-DNA, which is the kind we all usually mean, but there are other kinds.

      @@shooraynerdrawing it's more than ok for that. In fact, it might be better for most people because it's less complicated. The nerdy perfectionist in me hoped that with dimensions you would find it irresistible to redraw it perfectly.

      ​@@lana-xs8tk Yes, it's VERY hard! I finally got it done and my client was quite happy with it. The trick was that I had to let go of trying to be "mathematically" correct and just wing it. Fact is, very few people know the precise twists & turns and dimensions of the DNA Helix, they just want it to be perfectly recognizable for what it is. They're not going to check your work with a slide rule, calculator and medical journal. In fact, they wouldn't even know HOW! Good luck. You can do it! 👍

    Or if you know the sequence of DNA you can easily make an atomic model with my "DNA maker" at www.latech.edu/~bishop/. Type in "ACGT" without the quotes to see a short segment of double stranded DNA that you can rotate, manipulate on your computer. It should even work on your phone

    • @rolzi230
      @rolzi230 8 років тому +1

      that doesn't mean it is necessary wrong sometimes on the dna strand you can get the same base number of times. the bases are G-C and A-T so you can have GCCCATG and it will be okay

  • @TheWupperdo
    @TheWupperdo 9 років тому +14

    this is still not correct. in a true DNA double helix it's unlikely that the strands are equally spaced. the slight offset from equally spaced ribbons seen in most correct scientific drawings is due to the antiparallel phosphate backbone linkages of the separate strands. 5' to 3' on one side of the helix, 3' to 5' on the other, which should (under most circumstances) form one major and one minor groove.
