Chapter 22.1, Problem 22.2P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of guanosine needs to be drawn, the carbon in the sugar needs to be numbered and it should be classified as a ribonucleoside or a deoxyribonucleoside.

Concept Introduction:

DNA and RNA are linear polymers of nucleotides.

A nucleotide has three components; a five-membered sugar ring (monosaccharide), a nitrogen-containing base, and a phosphate group.

Only the base and the sugar portion of a nucleotide is called a nucleoside.

  General, Organic, & Biological Chemistry, Chapter 22.1, Problem 22.2P , additional homework tip  1

Bases in DNA/RNA:

There are only five common nitrogen-containing bases are present in DNA/RNA, which are derived either from pyrimidine or purine.

  General, Organic, & Biological Chemistry, Chapter 22.1, Problem 22.2P , additional homework tip  2

Sugar in DNA/RNA:

The monosaccharide in RNA is D-ribose.

In DNA, the monosaccharide is D-2-deoxyribose (lacks a hydroxyl group at C2).

  General, Organic, & Biological Chemistry, Chapter 22.1, Problem 22.2P , additional homework tip  3

Naming Nucleosides:

The suffix − idine is used to name a nucleoside derived from a pyrimidine base.

The suffix -osine is used to name a nucleoside derived from a purine base.

The prefix deoxy- is used if hydroxyl group is missing at C-2 position of the sugar.
