Molecular Biology of the Gene — DNA structure, replication, transcription, and genetic code
What does it mean that the two DNA strands in the Watson and Crick model are "anti-parallel"?
They are identical and can be read interchangeably.
Information stored in DNA must be read in the 5' to 3' direction.
They repel each other due to negative charges.
One strand is composed of purines and the other of pyrimidines.
