- In the DNA strand, each base can only bind to its complementary base. (studyread.com)
- Because the requirement of one particular nitrogenous base to bond with a specific other [ nitrogenous ] base , the two strands are thus complementary . (mrshum.com)
- Or more simply, C binds with G and A binds with T. It is called complementary base pairing because each base can only bond with a specific base partner. (tipseri.com)
- In this video I discuss DNA Complementary Base Pairing in nucleotide: Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, Cytosine. (tipseri.com)
Attached to ribose1
- Purines are biologically synthesized as nucleosides (bases attached to ribose). (wikipedia.org)
Genetic3
- These five nitrogenous bases are regarded as primary or canonical since they are the fundamental units of the genetic code. (biologyonline.com)
- The fact that purine bases always pair with specific pyrimidines is essential because it provides a mechanism for exact replication of DNA, a prerequisite for genetic inheritance and evolution. (hellovaia.com)
- This pairing is a fundamental concept in the study of genetics and forms the basis of how genetic information is stored and transferred in cells. (hellovaia.com)
Compounds2
- The nitrogen-containing bases belong to two families of compounds: the purines and the pyrimidines. (pharmacy180.com)
- Biomolecules are the organic compounds which form the basis of life, i.e., they build up the living system and responsible for their growth and maintenance. (aglasem.com)
Catabolism2
- Catabolism of purinespurine nucleotide degradation refers to a regulated series of reactionsby which purine ribonucleotides and deoxyribonucleotides are degradedto uric acid in humans. (web.app)
- The catabolism of pyrimidines produces citric acid cycle intermediates. (web.app)
Imidazole2
- The purine has a pyrimidine ring fused to an imidazole ring. (biologyonline.com)
- The pyrimidines consist of 1 carbon pyrimidine ring while the purines have 2 carbon rings in their structure as the pyrimidine ring is conjoined with an imidazole ring. (notesbard.com)
Polynucleotides1
- Nucleotide: A nucleotide is the precursor of polynucleotides, DNA and RNA. (paragonlockandsafe.com)
Phosphate groups4
- The addition of one or more phosphate groups to a nucleoside produces a nucleotide. (pharmacy180.com)
- Note: The phosphate groups are responsible for the negative charges associated with nucleotides and cause DNA and RNA to be referred to as "nucleic acids. (pharmacy180.com)
- In the structure of a nucleotide, the base is attached at the _____ carbon and the phosphate groups are attached to the _____ carbon. (freezingblue.com)
- By the joining one or more phosphate groups to a nucleoside through ester linkages, a nucleotide is formed. (wikibooks.org)
Structures1
- Thymine and cytosine are single ring structures, called pyrimidines . (mrshum.com)
Carbon-nitrogen rings1
- A base pair is a purine (two carbon-nitrogen rings) bonding a pyrimidine (one carbon-nitrogen ring). (theamplituhedron.com)
Deoxyribonucleotides1
- Nucleotides that contain deoxyribose are called deoxyribonucleotides and are the forms found in DNA. (rainis.pics)
Carbohydrates1
- Based on the chemical structure and polymerization, carbohydrates are divided into simple and complex groups. (vedantu.com)
Deoxyribonucleic acid4
- Nucleotides are molecular building blocks or subunits of nucleic acids such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). (tuiasi.ro)
- Nucleotides are obtained on hydrolysis of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acids (RNA) under controlled conditions. (britatom.gov.in)
- Deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA) is a folded-chain mechanism explaining the mysterious questions of evolution about the living organisms on Earth, according to the molecular basis of life. (theamplituhedron.com)
- DNA, or Deoxyribonucleic Acid, is fundamentally constructed from units known as nucleotides. (hellovaia.com)
Nucleobases adenine1
- They include the nucleobases adenine (2) and guanine (3). (wikipedia.org)
