Nucleoside Synthesis

A nucleoside is composed of a nitrogenous base and a five-carbon sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), which can be thought as a nucleotide without a phosphate group. The nitrogenous base is bond to the pentose via a beta-glycosidic linkage. Examples of nucleosides include cytidine, uridine, adenosine, guanosine, thymidine and inosine. Nucleosides are the basic building blocks of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) that play a significant role in genetic information expression. Visit www.bocsci.com/nucleosides-services.html to know more.
