Question

What contribution did Chargaff make to the discovery of the shape of DNA?

Answer 1

have you heard about "Chargaff's rule"?

Answer 2

Well, I know that A goes with T and G goes with C because they have about the same amount of percentages or something like that.

Answer 3

so his finding implied that AT and GC are paired since they occur in equal amounts. not much really you can infer from this without other people's work.

Answer 4

Yeah, I know. The internet isn't giving me much help either. To bad I wasn't able to check out a book.

Answer 5

hm well i think that's your answer, his works suggested the base pairing.
