DNA sugar phosphate backbone?
Yes, sugar deoxyribose and a phosphate group forms the backbone in the DNA.
Is a phosphate DNA or RNA?
Both DNA and RNA contain a sugar phosphate group as the backbone to their structure. In DNA the sugar is deoxyribose, where as in RNA it is just ribose.
What is the backbone of DNA made of?
Phosphates and sugars.
What makes up the outside of the dna ladder?
The sugar phosphate backbone.
Function of the sugar phosphate groups?
Structural integrity of Dna's backbone.
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.
DNA sugar phosphate backbone?
Yes, sugar deoxyribose and a phosphate group forms the backbone in the DNA.
What enzymes is correctly paired with its role in DNA replication?
DNA ligase--> adds bases in the remaining gaps of sugar-phosphate backbone
What are the 2 constant parts of DNA molecules?
The phosphate and deoxyribose in the backbone of DNA are constant throughout the molecule.
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.
Enzyme that analyzes the formation of the sugar to phosphate bonds in DNA?
Polymerase is the enzyme that speeds up the sugar to phosphate bonds in DNA.
Is a phosphate DNA or RNA?
Both DNA and RNA contain a sugar phosphate group as the backbone to their structure. In DNA the sugar is deoxyribose, where as in RNA it is just ribose.
What 2 substances make up the backbone or the sides of the DNA molecule?
The sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA is made up of deoxyribose (a sugar) and phosphate.
DNA bases are made of?
Sugar and Phosphate
What is a stand of DNA made of?
sugar and phosphate
What forms the backbone of the DNA double helix molecule?
The backbone of a DNA chain is sugar and phosphate groups of each nucleotide.
