Key Equations

$$[\text{A}] = [\text{T}], \quad [\text{G}] = [\text{C}], \quad \text{therefore} \quad [\text{Purines}] = [\text{Pyrimidines}]$$
$$Lk = Tw + Wr$$
$$\Delta Lk = Lk - Lk_0, \qquad \sigma = \frac{\Delta Lk}{Lk_0}$$
$$T_m = 81.5 + 16.6\log[\text{Na}^+] + 41(\%\text{GC}) - \frac{675}{N}$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
