DNA molecule, artwork C013 / 9971
DNA molecule. Computer artwork showing a double stranded DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule. DNA is composed of two strands twisted into a double helix. Each strand consists of a sugar-phosphate backbone (coloured strip) attached to nucleotide bases (spheres). There are four bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine. The bases are joined together by hydrogen bonds (rods, between spheres). DNA contains sections called genes that encode the bodys genetic information

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a DNA molecule, depicted as a stunning computer artwork. The image reveals the double-stranded structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), elegantly twisted into a helical shape. Each strand is composed of a sugar-phosphate backbone, represented by vibrant colored strips, which are connected to nucleotide bases portrayed as spheres. The four bases found in DNA—adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine—are visually distinguished and joined together by delicate hydrogen bonds illustrated as rods between the spheres. This remarkable molecular structure holds great significance as it encodes the genetic information that defines our bodies within sections called genes. Set against an enchanting black background, this illustration serves as a powerful reminder of the complex biochemical processes that underpin life itself. It highlights how these tiny building blocks—sugars, phosphates, and bases—combine harmoniously to form the fundamental code for all living organisms. Created by LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY with meticulous attention to detail and artistic flair, this mesmerizing artwork invites us to marvel at nature's ingenuity on both macroscopic and microscopic scales. It encapsulates the wonders of biology and genetics while offering an aesthetic feast for those who appreciate scientific artistry.
