DNA molecule, artwork C013 / 9972
DNA molecule. Computer artwork showing a double stranded DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule. DNA is composed of two strands twisted into a double helix. Each strand consists of a sugar-phosphate backbone (coloured strip) attached to nucleotide bases (spheres). There are four bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine. The bases are joined together by hydrogen bonds (rods, between spheres). DNA contains sections called genes that encode the bodys genetic information

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a DNA molecule, artwork C013 / 9972. Created through computer-generated imagery, it vividly portrays the iconic double helix structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). The DNA molecule is composed of two strands elegantly twisted together, resembling a mesmerizing spiral staircase. Each strand is comprised of a sugar-phosphate backbone, represented by colorful strips that add an artistic touch to the image. Attached to this backbone are nucleotide bases depicted as spheres in various vibrant hues. These bases include adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine - the building blocks responsible for encoding our body's genetic information. The connection between these bases is illustrated by slender rods symbolizing hydrogen bonds. It is through these bonds that the four bases join forces to form the unique genetic code within our DNA. DNA contains sections called genes which play a crucial role in encoding all aspects of our biological makeup. This remarkable illustration not only highlights the structural elegance of DNA but also emphasizes its vital function in storing and transmitting genetic information. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail by LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this artwork serves as a testament to both scientific knowledge and artistic creativity. Its striking visual representation invites us into the fascinating world of biochemistry and genetics while reminding us of nature's extraordinary complexity at its most fundamental level.
