Abstract

Any explanation of the facts of heredity in terms of molecular structure must eventually account for self-duplication, for specificity, and for variation and modification of the genetic material. The helical structure of DNA has certain implications, some or all of which may prove to be important to its biological function: they are the subject of this and the following chapters.
