Suppose a DNA single strand has N bases, it can form a double helix with its complimentary strand, as shown in the figure attached. Please calculate, in total number, how many kinds of double helixes can be formed with N base pairs? (Hint: the final results are different for N to be odd number or even number. So, please consider both cases). 3' Nitrogenous bases: 5' Adenine Thymine Guanine Cytosine Major groove Base pair 10 Sugar- phosphate backbone Minor groove 3' 5
