Final Jeopardy Explanation – Monday, September 25 2023
In 1953, an article by James Watson and Francis Crick proposed the double helix structure for DNA, and their work was groundbreaking in understanding how genetic information is stored and replicated.
The “specific pairing” they discussed referred to the way in which the nitrogenous bases of the DNA strands pair up: adenine (A) with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) with guanine (G). This complementary base pairing provides the mechanism for DNA replication, as each strand can serve as a template for creating a new partner strand.
This discovery was monumental in the field of genetics and won them the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962.
