Uracil vs. Thymine
RNA uses Uracil in place of Thymine.
N-Glycosidic Linkage
A nitrogenous base is linked to the OH of the 1'C of pentose sugar via an N-glycosidic linkage.
Examples of Nucleosides
Examples include adenosine, deoxyadenosine, guanosine, deoxyguanosine, cytidine, deoxycytidine, uridine, and deoxythymidine.
Nucleotide Formation
Formed when a phosphate group is linked to the OH of the 5'C of a nucleoside through a phosphoester linkage.
3'-5' Phosphodiester Linkage
Two nucleotides are linked through this linkage.
Polynucleotide Chain Ends
It has a free 5' phosphate at one end and a free 3' hydroxyl group at the other end.
Nitrogenous base present in both DNA and RNA
Cytosine.
