DNA structure, artwork C017 / 7218
DNA structure. Computer artwork showing the structure of a double stranded DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule (right) and its components (left). DNA is composed of two strands twisted into a double helix. Each strand consists of a sugar-phosphate (deoxyribose-phosphate) backbone attached to nucleotide bases. There are four bases: adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine, which are joined together by hydrogen bonds. DNA contains sections called genes that encode the bodys genetic information

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of DNA, one of the fundamental building blocks of life. Created by artist Carlos Clarivan, this computer artwork beautifully illustrates a double-stranded DNA molecule on a black background. On the left side, we can observe its various components that make up this remarkable genetic material. The DNA molecule is elegantly twisted into a double helix shape, with two strands running parallel to each other. These strands are composed of a sugar-phosphate backbone made from deoxyribose-phosphate molecules. Attached to this backbone are nucleotide bases - adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine - which play a crucial role in encoding our body's genetic information. The bases are connected through hydrogen bonds and form specific sequences known as genes. Genes contain vital instructions for our biological processes and determine traits such as eye color or susceptibility to certain diseases. This molecular model highlights the incredible complexity and beauty found within our genetic code. It serves as a reminder of how intricately designed life is at its most basic level. Whether you're fascinated by biology or simply appreciate art that explores scientific concepts, this artwork offers an intriguing glimpse into the wonders of biochemistry and genetics captured through Carlos Clarivan's artistic lens.
