17.2 Primary Structure of Nucleic Acids

Do you know if any of the following components are present in the nucleic acids?

• Draw the formula for deoxyadenosine monophosphate.

• The formula for uridine DNA only can be drawn.

What is the cause of an overproduction of uric acid?

• The genetic information is carried by this sequence of bases.

• The letters of the bases are used to write the order of the nucleotides in a nucleic acid.
• The base has the adenine backbone attached to it.

• A, C, G, and U are connected in the primary structure.

• The 3' OH group of adenosine monophosphate and the 5' phosphate group of cytidine monophosphate were joined to form an RNA dinucleotide.
