Deoxyribose-containing nucleotides, the deoxyribonucleotides, are the monomers of DNA.
deoxyribose Five-carbon sugar found in nucleotides of DNA. PICTURE
depth diversity gradient The increase in species richness with increasing water depth until about 2000 meters below the surface, where species richness begins to decline.
deoxyribose
The sugar component of DNA, having one less hydroxyl group than ribose, the sugar component of RNA.
dependent variable ...
Deoxyribose A type of sugar that is one component of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).
Deoxyribose A five-carbon monosaccharide (C5H9O5) that constitutes the carbohydrate moiety of a deoxynucleotide; the deoxyribose commonly found in deoxynucleotides is 2-deoxyribose.
DNA (deoxyribose nucleic acid)
a helical, double stranded molecule composed of four different nucleotide subuints (A, T, G, and C) that carries the genetic instructions from one generation to the next ...
deoxyribose A 5-carbon sugar having 1 oxygen atom less than ribose; a component of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
dependency ratio The number of nonworking members compared to working members for a given population.
A Structure for Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid Text of the original paper that Watson and Crick published in 1953.
An organic acid and polymer composed of four nitrogenous bases--adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine linked via intervening units of phosphate and the pentose sugar deoxyribose.

Nucleoside In molecular biology; a molecule composed of a sugar (2' deoxyribose in DNA; ribose in RNA) which is linked to a purine (adenine or guanine) or a pyrimidine (thymine (DNA), cytidine or uridine (RNA)).
DNA (deoxyribose nucleic acid) is the genetic material of all cells. RNAs (ribose nucleic acid) which are closely related, ...
The deoxyribose sugar ring.
Is the deoxyribose ring flat or puckered?
Location of the sugar in the DNA double helix.
Are the two strands of DNA parallel or anti-parallel?
Structure of GC and AT base pairs.
Nuclease
An enzyme which cleaves phosphate-deoxyribose bonds within (endonuclease) or at the end (exonuclease) of a nucleotide sequence. Nucleases usually recognize a specific substrate, such as single- or double-stranded DNA or RNA.
Each strand has a backbone made of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate groups. Attached to each sugar is one of four bases--adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T).
A subunit of DNA or RNA consisting of a nitrogenous base (purine in adenine and guanine, pyrimidine in thymine, or cytosine for DNA and uracil cytosine for RNA), a phosphate molecule, and a sugar molecule (deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA).
A single-stranded nucleic acid similar to DNA but having ribose sugar rather than deoxyribose sugar and uracil rather than thymine as one of the pyrimidine bases.
Also known as: ribonucleic acid ...
Pentose sugar: A sugar molecule containing five carbon atoms. E.g.: deoxyribose.
Phage: A virus which infects a bacterial cell. Also called a Bacteriophage.
DNA is composed of two chains of nucleotides linked together in a ladder-like arrangement with the sides composed of alternating deoxyribose sugar and phosphate groups and the rungs being the nitrogenous bases as indicated by the diagram below.
nucleosides - compound composed of a purine or pydimidine base linked to either a ribose or deoxyribose sugar. DNA and RNA are not polymers of nucleosides.
Pure carbohydrates contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, in a 1:2:1 molar ratio, giving the general formula CnH2nOn. However, many important carbohydrates deviate from this, such as deoxyribose.
Nucleotide A building block of a nucleic acid consisting of a base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, uracil) joined to a sugar (ribose or deoxyribose) and a phosphate.
Null mutation A mutation which leads to the absence of a gene product.
