Description: Unit building block of DNA. It consists of a sugar and phosphate backbone with a base attached. Source: Specialized encyclopedia and dictionaries Description: A compound made up of these three components: a sugar, phosphate and a nitrogen-containing base. Found as individual molecules (eg, ATP, the «energy molecule»), or as many nucleotides linked together in a chain (nucleic acid such as DNA). Source: Specialized encyclopedia and dictionaries

| nucleotide |
the "building block" of nucleic acids, such as the DNA molecule. A nucleotide consists of one of four bases - adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine - attached to a phosphate-sugar group. In DNA the sugar group is deoxyribose, while in RNA (a DNA-related molecule which helps to translate genetic information into proteins), the sugar group is ribose, and the base uracil substitutes for thymine. Each group of three nucleotides in a gene is known as a codon. ...
