Coding Strand of DNA
When pointing to DNA transcription, the coding strand is found to be the DNA strand whose base sequence is indistinguishable from the base sequence of the RNA transcript developed. It is this strand that comprises the codons, while the non-coding strand …
Nucleotide
Both DNA and RNA are composed of organic molecules known as nucleotides. Hence, nucleotides are known as the basic building blocks of nucleic acids. These substances play a role in various processes such as cell signalling, enzyme reactions, metabolism, …
Structure of Cytosine
Cytosine is among the five primary nitrogenous bases of which DNA and RNA and are being used in storage and transportation of genetic makeup within a cell. Adenine, guanine, thymine as well as uracil are the remaining four nucleobases.

Chapter 18, Problem 28P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A compound similar in structure to DNA base should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

DNA consist with two types of bases

  • Purines
  • Pyrimidines
Purine is a six member and five membered ring combination base that contains four nitrogen atoms within the ring and pyrimidine is a single six membered ring which contains two nitrogen atoms within the ring. These both base units are attached with other functional group and a sugar unit in DNA and therefore called DNA bases.
