More detailed description:
Many people think that Watson, Crick, and Wilkins are the ones who discovered the structure of DNA, but they are wrong. Just because they won the Nobel Prize doesn't mean they deserved it. Roslin Franklin is really the one who discovered it, as also she made better gas masks at the time of the war, and discovered 2 viruses. Wilkins and Roslin hated each other because they both wanted to be in charge in the lab but neither wanted to step down to be an assistant so in the lab Roslin and Wilkins are both working seperatly to try and discovers the structure/shape of the DNA first. Watson and Crick made a model of DNA and Roslin Franklin proved their model totally wrong and Watson and Crick got fired by their boss. So both men were mad at Roslin and Watson was extremely jealous. Wilkins met up with his old buddies Watson and Crick and they talked about how "rude" Roslin Franklin was and called her a mean nickname "Rosey". Then Wilkins asked Roslin if he could see her work but she refused because she wanted to o further into her studies and not have other people messing with her information and discoveries. Roslin had already discovered the structure of DNA but was busy trying to learn more about it so she didn't report it, she had taken an x-ray of DNA in the shape of an X that she called Photo 51. In her notes she discribed how DNA was in a double-helix shape. Watson had snuck into her office and stolen her research papers stating the helix shape and PHOTO 51! So then he showed Wilkins and Crick and together they made a model of DNA and won an award they didn't deserve. However if it weren't for Watson's jealousy and mentioning how slyly he had stolen her info in his book The Double Helix no one would've none that Roslin Franklin had discovered it. She is now only today getting credit for it, Roslin had died from radiation sickness from all the x-rays she took no too long before The Double Helix was discovered.
The double helix model for DNA structure was discovered by:
James Watson, Francis Crick, Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin
Scientists by the name of James Watson and Francis Crick discovered DNA to be in the form of a double helix.
DNA helicase
DNA Helicase. - an enzyme, is responsible for unwinding and unzipping the double helix.
double helix, twisted ladder, spiral staircase.
To 'unwind' the double helix for protein synthesis, enzymes called DNA Helicases cause the two parent DNA strands to unwind and separate from one another in both directions. And im only 15

A double helix.
DNA is a double helix made of two strands linked together with hydrogen bonds.
