Overview
The DNA structure, discovered by James Watson and Francis Crick, is a double helix model that reveals the fundamental basis of life. This discovery, influenced by the work of Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins, has had a profound impact on genetics, molecular biology, and our understanding of heredity. The DNA structure is composed of nucleotides, with sugar and phosphate molecules forming the backbone, and nitrogenous bases projecting inward from the backbone, pairing in a complementary manner.
