Nucleotides

From 3D Printables

Nucleotides are the building blocks for DNA and RNA. Every nucleotide consists of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (A, G, C, T, or U). In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose, in RNA, ribose (see Sugars for these structures). The structures below are full nucleotides (sugar, phosphate, and base). The bases can have either one or two rings. Single ring bases are pyrimidines, double rings are purines.
