Definition
English
:
A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all
cells
. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain
DNA
in a double-stranded
state
, yet several important
biological processes
transiently involve single-stranded regions.
DNA
, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of
purines
(adenine and guanine) and
pyrimidines
(thymine and cytosine),
forms
a double helix that is held together by
hydrogen
bonds between these
purines
and
pyrimidines
(adenine to
thymine
and
guanine
to cytosine).
