If complementary DNA strands were arranged in a parallel manner, what would you expect to see?
◦ Complementary nucleotides would be attracted to each other, forming ionic bonds that would make the helix stable but not uniform in width.
◦ Some regions of the two strands may form atypical hydrogen bonds, but the overall structure of the two DNA strands would not be stable.
◦ Complementary nucleotides would line up normally; but fewer hydrogen bonds would form, so the strands could be more easily pulled apart.
◦ The phosphodiester backbones would be too close and repel one another.
◦ There would be no discernable difference between DNA strands aligned in a parallel versus an antiparallel manner.
