Chargaff made an observation about DNA that was very important in the determination of its structure. He noticed that the amount of adenine always equaled the amount of the thymine, and the amount of cytosine always equaled the amount of guanine. This principle is known as chargaffs rule, and it helped Watson and crick eventually realize that A paired with T and C paired with G.
