Nucleotides 4.1
• DNA replication, RNA transcription (DNA → RNA) and translation (RNA→ protein)
• Thermodynamics explain why the structure is the way it is
4.1a Chemical Structures
• 4
o Nucleotides are building blocks of DNA and RNA
o Made up of nitrogenous base, (deoxy)ribose sugar and phosphate group(s)
▪ Base can be purine (A,G,I) or pyrimidines (C,T,U)
▪ DNA = AGCT and RNA = AGCU (tRNA has I)
o Remember base is not building block, nucleotides are!
• 5
o Nucleoside = furanose ring (5) sugar + nitrogenous base (aromatic ring)
o Nucleotide = above + 1 or more phosphate groups (on sugar)
• 6
o Nucleotides are derivatives of purine or pyrimidines
o Purine is pyrimidine + imidazole
o N = nucleotide R = purine and Y = pyrimidine
• 7
o Purine = 2 rings and pyrimidines are 1 ring
o Hypoxanthine (I) is found in tRNA and I is deaminated form of A and binds to U
and it is critical for Wobble in RNA but it is bad in DNA
o ‘NA doest eoe doule heli due to the riose preetig that
• 8
o See ribose has been reduced at position 2 (OH → H) to make deoxyribose
• 9
o ‘iouleotide OH ad deoriouleotide has -H (reduced)
o Base liked to -C of sugar through N-glycosidic bond
o Phosphate group added at or 5 phosphoester od to reate hole

o Have to specify how many phosphates in name with nucleoside
o Nuleotides hae phosphate groups added at 5-O or -O

o Same for deoxy with H but if now deoxyribose name changes
▪ If deoxyribose phosphate AMP now names dAMP
