deoxyribose is a sugar. It is manufactured by several big companies by coating graphite shafts with fructose. It is then put into a vacuum chamber and heat is added. This pulls some of the carbon chains out of the graphite stick and binds it to the fructose. Finally, bacteria is added, which converts it to deoxyribose.

What is the backbone of DNA made of?
Phosphates and sugars.
What is the name of the sugar molecules found in DNA?
The sugar that is found in DNA is called Deoxyribose
What is deoxyribose?
Deoxyribose, also known as D-Deoxyribose and 2-deoxyribose, is an aldopentose - a monosaccharide containing five carbon atoms, and including an aldehyde functional group in its linear structure. Deoxyribose is a constituent of the nucleotide bases that form DNA.
Is ribose sugar found in DNA and why?
D in DNA stands for Deoxyribose. R in RNA stands for Ribose. Deoxyribose is ribose but the 2' hydroxyl group is not present.
What is a DNA nucleotide made up of?
is made up of three basic components, 5-carbon sugar called deoxyribose, a phosphate group, and nitrogenous base.
