What is Chargaff's Rule?

1 Answer

1 vote

Answer:

Chargaff's rules state that DNA from any species of any organism should have a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio of pyrimidine and purine bases and, more specifically, that the amount of guanine should be equal to cytosine and the amount of adenine should be equal to thymine. This pattern is found in both strands of the DNA.
