Chapter 28.1, Problem 28.1P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structural formula for the nucleotide 2'-Deoxythymidine-5'-monophosphate has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

The Nucleotide is the component of Nucleic acid which is a component of DNA and RNA.  The Nucleotide consists of three components-Nitrogenous base (heterogeneous aromatic amine base), five membered sugar molecule and phosphate group.  The Nitrogenous bases are Purines (Adenine, Guanine) and Pyrimidines (Uracil, Cytosine, Thymine).  The five membered sugar molecule may be D-Ribose or 2-Deoxy-D-Ribose sugar.  The Phosphate base is linked to sugar molecule at 3'and5' positions, by the ester linkage.

  Nucleotide = Nitrogenous base + Sugar molecule + Phosphate ion
