DNA with money
DNA with money. Computer artwork of a DNA double helix superimposed over a British 20 pound note. This image could represent the commercial implications of DNA research. A molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) consists of two helical chains coiled around the same axis, each chain consisting of alternate phosphate and sugar groups. The chains are held together in a double helix by the hydrogen bonds formed between nucleotide bases attached to the two chains. There are four bases; adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T). The sequence of the bases in the molecule forms the genetic code

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the fusion of science and finance, as a DNA double helix elegantly intertwines with a British 20 pound note. The image symbolizes the profound commercial implications that arise from groundbreaking DNA research. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), the fundamental building block of life, is visually represented by two helical chains coiled around each other. These chains consist of alternating phosphate and sugar groups, forming a structural backbone for the intricate genetic code they carry. Held together by hydrogen bonds, four nucleotide bases - adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T) - create an elaborate sequence within the DNA molecule. The incorporation of this molecular marvel onto a banknote emphasizes how scientific advancements can shape our economic landscape. It highlights the significance of genetics in various industries such as healthcare, agriculture, and biotechnology. Through this computer artwork, Science Photo Library beautifully captures both the complexity and elegance inherent in DNA's structure. This visual representation serves as a reminder that our understanding of genetics holds immense potential for innovation and progress. While not explicitly mentioning its commercial use or any specific company associated with it, this thought-provoking image invites contemplation on how scientific breakthroughs like DNA research can revolutionize our world economically while unraveling nature's most enigmatic secrets.
