Document Summary

Single or double ring of c and n. Tide = base, sugar and at least one phosphate group. Carbons in sugar numbered with a prime . 3"-5" = referring to the orientation of the sugar. Cytosine, thymine (dna only), uracil (rna only) Dna nucleotides are missing an o at the end of 2"c (4. 1b) 5"c covalently bonded to a phosphate group. Covalently bond 2 nt together with a dehydration reaction (4. 2) Left side of figure vs right side of figure. To covalently bond the sugar of one interacts with the phosphate group of another. Nucleotides are joined by a phosphodiester linkage. All the sugars in the strand have the same orientation. Dna and rna, both nucleic acids, have different 3d structures and functions. The bases of 2 antiparallel strands h bond to form a double helix (its secondary structure) (4. 6) Bases of a single strand h bond with each other to form a hairpin structure.
