NUCLEOTIDES

Structural unit of nucleic acid is NUCLEOTIDE
Nucleotide have 3 main components 
                1.Phosphate group
                2. Pento sugar group
                3.Nitrogenous based group

                                           PENTO SUGAR GROUP
They are monosaccharides having 5 carbons 
There are 2 types of pento sugars 
              1. Ribose 
             2. Deoxy ribose

                                                NITROGENOUS BASED GROUP
 They are nitrogen containing organic molecule which can be found in nucleic acid.
There are 5 types of nitrogenous bases 
              1.Adenine 
              2.Guanine
              3. Thiamine 
              4.Cytosine
              5.Uracil

Nitrogenous bases can be divided into 2 groups 
            1.Purine
            2. Pyrimidines
