Watson and Crick already knew that the number of purines is always the same as pyrimidines.

The scientists that contribute to discovery of DNA and its complete structure:

•  Friedrich Miescher-was the first who found DNA inside the nucleus (first it was called nuclein) while he was trying to discover the protein components of leukocytes (1869)

• Phoebus Levene- was the first who discovered three major components of a nucleotide (1919)

• Erwin Chargaff –discovered that the total amount of purines (A + G) and the total amount of pyrimidines (C + T) are nearly equal (Chargaff’s rule) (1950)

• Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins, did an important X-ray crystallography work that contributed to Watson and Crick's discovery of double-helical model for the structure of DNA.

  • Paracrine: Their target cells are often their neighbors so they often diffuse to reach them
  • Autocrine: Their secretion acts on themselves. Hence they are their own targets.

Research studies suggest that a high-fiber diet protects against _____.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Research studies suggest that a high-fiber diet protects against colon cancer. This is because high fibrous food increases the bulk in the digestive tract to pass easily through the intestinal tract to shorten the time of passage. This short time of passage of food reduces the interaction of carcinogens present in the food with the intestinal tract. The fibers are broken down in butyrate by the bacteria present in the lower intestine. This butyrate inhibits the growth of tumors of colon and rectum,
