DNA sugar phosphate backbone?
Yes, sugar deoxyribose and a phosphate group forms the backbone in the DNA.
Does ATP contain a phosphate atom?
ATP = Adenosine triphosphate, it contains 3 phosphate groups, the structure of this molecule consists of a purine base (adenine) attached to the carbon atom of a pentose sugar (ribose). The 3 phosphate groups are attached to another carbon atom of the pentose sugar.
Another word for glucose is?
Grape sugar, blood sugar, or corn sugar
What is made of one sugar one phosphate and one base?
Each nucleotide contains one sugar, one phosphate and one base.
What is composed of sugar a base a phosphate?
Nucleotide
What is the sequence of subunits in the DNA backbone?
The sequence of subunits in the DNA backbone is phosphate, sugar, phosphate, sugar, phosphate, and sugar. The coding region is the code for protein sequence.
What type of bonds holds the sugar and phosphate groups together?
The bond linking a phosphate group to a sugar of a another molecule is called a phosphodiester bond
What are the 2 constant parts of DNA molecules?
The phosphate and deoxyribose in the backbone of DNA are constant throughout the molecule.
What makes up the sides of the ladder a DNA molecule?
The backbone of the DNA molecule is made up of a sugar (deoxyribose) bonded to a phosphate group bonded to another sugar and then another phosphate and so on. These are very strong covalent bonds that are not easily broken.
What makes up the upright part of the DNA ladder?
Deoxyribose
What is nucleic acid made of?
A phosphate group, a ribose sugar, or deoxyribose sugar backbone and a nitrogenous base.
How are the sugar phosphate backbones of a DNA molecule different?
Sugar phosphate backbones do not include the nucleic acids of the DNA. They are composed of a sugar and a phosphate group bonded to each other.
What two parts make up the back bone of DNA?
Phosphate and Deoxyribose sugar are the two parts that form the backbone of DNA. They are joined by ester bonds.
What is sugar found in?
sugar is found in phosphate
What are the three joined structures of a nucleotide?
five-carbon sugar group, phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base
What best describes a nucleotide structure?
a nitrogenous base, phosphate group, and pentose sugar
What are the three buildings blocks of a nucleotide?
Sugar, phosphate, and nitrogenous base.
