What is length of DNA in prokaryotes |
|
Answer» Explanation: The size of the genome in one of the most well-studied PROKARYOTES, E. coli, is 4.6 million base pairs (approximately 1.1 MM, if cut and stretched out). So how does this fit INSIDE a small bacterial cell? The DNA is twisted by what is known as SUPERCOILING. |
