They are derivatives of → purine
Elements of the structure of RNA, they determine the sequence of amino acids in the proteins of which RNA will direct the synthesis
In RNA, adenine and guanine are attached to ribose:
These structural elements are linked by phosphate groups to form parts of RNA chains:
Portion of RNA (Reading from 5 ' to 3' ): Ad & eacute ; nine - Guanine
They are derivatives of → pyrimidine
RNA structural elements, they too partly determine the sequence of amino acids in proteins
In RNA, uracil and cytosine are attached to ribose:
These structural elements are linked by phosphate groups to form RNA chains:
Portion of RNA (Reading from 5 ' to 3' ): Uracil - Uracil - Cytosine
The bases of RNA and DNA chains combine by hydrogen bridges as follows:
