## NAMING OF NUCLEOTIDES | | A. As an ordinary compound | B. As an acid | |---|---|---| | 1. | Name the nucleoside used | Change the -ine ending of the nucleoside to -ylic | | 2. | Indicate the point of attachment (may be omitted) | Affix the term "acid" | | 3. | Attach the word "monophosphate" | | Eg. cytidine 5 monophosphate or cytidine Eg. cytidilic acid ## COMMON NUCLEOTIDES OF RNA: 1. Cytidine monophosphate or cytidylic acid 2. Uridine monophosphate or uridylic acid 3. Adenosine monophosphate or adenylic acid 4. Guanosine monophosphate or guanylic acid ## COMMON NUCLEOTIDES OF DNA: 1. Deoxycytidine monophosphate or Deoxycytidylic acid 2. Deoxyuridine monophosphate or Deoxyuridylic acid 3. Deoxyadenosine monophosphate or Deoxyadenylic acid Deoxyguanosine monophosphate or Deoxyguanylic acid ## ATP - composed of the nitrogenous base- Adenine, sugar ribose like RNA, 3 Phosphate group - can be added to the molecules which are high energy bonds - serve as temporary energy batteries of the cell ## ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate) is a modified nucleotide that plays a central role in
