BioEd Online The DNA Double Helix The DNA ladder spirals in a double helix. There are 10 base pairs per turn. Each turn is 34 Angstroms high. The helix is 24 Angstroms wide. The major groove is the wider of the two grooves. The other groove is called the minor groove Redrawn from National Institute of Medical Sciences, NIH Major groove Minor groove Major groove Minor groove
