Phosphate group
Phosphorylated
Adding a phosphate group
Three types of phosphorylated
Adenosine mono phosphate amp
Adenosine diphosphate adp
Adnenosine triphosphate atp
DeOxyribose
No oxygen atom see gallery for an idea
Ribose
Oxygen atom below carbon 2 Same structure 5 carbons oxygen in middle OH below 3 and above 1 and out of 5 8 hydrogen atoms 1-1 2-2 3-2 4-1 5-2
Phosphodiester bond
Bond between two nucleotides creating poly nucleotide OH group of phosphate from carbon 5 joins with H atom of carbon 3
Hydrogen bond
Weak bond between nitrogenous bases
Two H bonds
Between A-T A-U
3 h bonds
