what is meant by palindromic dna?..

Answer / krishnam

The term palindromic dna is applied to regions of dna in
which there are inverted repetitions of base sequences with
twofold symmetry occuring over two strands.

such sequences are selfcomplementary within each of the
strands and therefore have the potential to form hairpin or
cruciform structures involving intrastrand base pairing.
