Computer molecular graphic of DNA
DNA molecules. Computer molecular graphic of a tetrameric structure formed from four strands of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) lying alongside each other. DNA encodes an organisms hereditary characteristics. The atoms have been colour-coded: hydrogen is yellow, carbon is dark blue, oxygen is red and phosphorus is green. The strands nitrogen atoms are contained within the molecule and cannot be seen here. DNA strands have sugar- phosphate backbones with nitrogen-containing nucleotide bases attached. The exact sequence of nucleotides determines the genetic code. The four DNA molecules are held together by hemi- protonated base pairs

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer-generated molecular graphic of DNA, revealing the intricate beauty of this fundamental building block of life. The image depicts a tetrameric structure formed by four strands of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) lying harmoniously alongside each other. Each atom in the graphic has been meticulously color-coded to enhance our understanding: hydrogen appears as vibrant yellow, carbon as deep blue, oxygen as striking red, and phosphorus as refreshing green. While the nitrogen atoms within the molecule remain concealed from view, it is evident that DNA strands possess sugar-phosphate backbones adorned with nitrogen-containing nucleotide bases. These bases are crucial components responsible for encoding an organism's hereditary characteristics. In fact, it is through the precise sequence of these nucleotides that the genetic code is determined. The mesmerizing complexity portrayed in this image highlights both the elegance and sophistication inherent in nature's blueprint for life. It serves as a reminder of how genetics play an integral role in shaping every living being on Earth. Captured by Science Photo Library, this extraordinary visual representation offers us a glimpse into the realm of biochemistry and genetics while showcasing cutting-edge computer graphics technology at its finest.
