| nucleoside |
A base (purine or pyrimidine) that is covalently linked to a 5-carbon (pentose) sugar. When the sugar is ribose, the nucleoside is a ribonucleoside; when it is deoxyribose, the nucleoside is a deoxyribonucleoside. Adenine, guanine and cytosine occur in both DNA and RNA; thymine occurs in DNA; and uracil in RNA. They are the building blocks of DNA and RNA. See nucleoside analogue.

| nucleoside |
