deoksiribonukleosideja
Deoksiribonukleosideja are the building blocks of DNA. Each deoksiribonukleosideja consists of three components: a deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. There are four types of nitrogenous bases found in DNA: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). The deoxyribose sugar is a five-carbon sugar that differs from the ribose sugar found in RNA by the absence of an oxygen atom at the 2' carbon. The phosphate group is attached to the 5' carbon of the deoxyribose sugar. When these components are linked together, they form a deoksiribonukleosideja. The nitrogenous bases are attached to the 1' carbon of the deoxyribose sugar. In DNA, these deoksiribonukleosideja are polymerized to form long strands. The sequence of these bases along the DNA strand carries the genetic information. The deoksiribonukleosideja in DNA are linked by phosphodiester bonds, where the phosphate group of one deoksiribonukleosideja attaches to the 3' carbon of the sugar of the next deoksiribonukleosideja. This creates the characteristic sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA. The specific order of adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine deoksiribonukleosideja determines the genetic code of an organism.
