When RNA is hydrolysed, there is no relationship among the quantities of different bases obtained. What does this fact suggested about the structure of RNA ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Complete hydrolysis of RNA yields a pentose sugar (D-ribosc) and heterosyclic nitrugenous bases such as purine bases ad. enine '(A)' and guanine '(G)', and pyrimidine bases. uracil (U) and cytosine (C) and phosphoric acid. The quantity of four bases ob. tained by hydrolysis of RNA are not related to each other because RNA has single helix structure.
