About the Cover:

The reaction of antigens with antibodies is shown. Two identical antigen-combining sites are shown on each antibody molecule. Both light and heavy chain parts of the molecule are used to form the combining sites. In the second figure the antigen and antibody molecules have combined to form a large aggregate. (From reference (14)). The details of the hydrogen bonding of the base pairs in DNA are shown on the left. Adenine is always linked to thymine by two hydrogen bonds and guanine always associates with cytosine by three hydrogen bonds. The obligatory pairing of the smaller pyrimidine with the larger purine permits the two deoxyribose phosphate backbones to have identical helical configurations.
