Depending on the molecule, the "sugar" may change, but a moiety is like a subdivision of a functional group. In DNA we have nitrogenous base held by a sugar phosphate backbone. "Sugar moiety" refers to the deoxyribose sugar that is part of the DNA backbone.
What is moiety? a half
"Let's split that turkey; you shall have a moiety and I too shall have half." I will have a moiety to show i am here to help out everyone get what they needed to come here to get.
According to online services, Moiety is properly defined as having half ownership of something. For example, joint tenants are said to have Moiety of the property.
The term 'glycoside' commonly refers to an organic compound with a sugar moiety attached (often it is used where the compound can also be found occurring naturally without the sugar - known as the aglycone). Ethanol is a short chain hydrocarbon alcohol, and contains no such sugar, therefore the answer is no. Best wishes, Fraser.
Both DNA and Rna are composed of, first, the sugar-phosphate backbone. The sugar is ribose and the phosphate is a PO4 (-2) moiety. Reaching laterally are the third components - the nucleotide bases.
Non polypeptide moiety refers to each part that a non polypeptide can be divided into. For example, maybe a benzene moiety.
A nonpolypeptide moiety is a component in a protein molecule that is not made up of amino acids. These moieties can be prosthetic groups like heme in hemoglobin or cofactors like metal ions that help the protein function properly. Nonpolypeptide moieties are critical for the structure and activity of many proteins.
moiety (possibly?)
A sugar phosphate backbone is a structural component of nucleic acids like DNA and RNA. It consists of alternating sugar (deoxyribose or ribose) and phosphate groups that are connected by covalent bonds, providing stability to the nucleic acid molecule. The nitrogenous bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine in DNA; adenine, uracil, cytosine, guanine in RNA) are attached to the sugar moiety in the backbone.
class of alkaloids containing a structural moiety of indole.
For the Dna [sugar-phosphate] backbone there are two types of monomers - the ribose [5 carbon] sugar and the [PO4 minus] phosphate moiety. The Four Handshake Bases that form 'the rungs of the Dna Ladder' are the nucleotide base monomers. Their Names are the pairs Adenine with Guanine and the pairs Cytosine with Thymine.
A pentose sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine, or uracil).
