How many N-terminus are there in this cartoon?arrow_forwardWhy do think nucleotides are also sometimes referred to as “bases” or “nucleotide bases”? What is the difference between a nucleotide and a nucleoside? Explain by giving an example, using structures. What kind of bond links a base to some sugar? Is the sugar an alpha or beta anomer? In what position(s) of the sugar does this occur? In what position(s) of the base does this occur? Instead of the term “Formation of a nucleoside”, what could the name of the reaction be? What functional group is being formed? Define the primary structure of DNA/RNA. Compare and contrast to the primary structure of proteins.arrow_forward
