  1. N H 2 N N N H N O O H H O P O H H O O O H O H Formation of a nucleotide Three compounds are needed to make a nucleotide deoxyribose They combine through two condensation reactions (condensation means ‘splitting out’ water, H2O) a base (this one is adenine) Click to follow the formation of the nucleotide from these three compounds and phosphoric acid

  2. N H 2 N N N H 2 N H N N N N H O N O O H H O O H O 2 O H O H a base a condensation reaction And now a phosphate group is added by reaction with phosphoric acid – click to see the reaction deoxyribose

  3. N H 2 N N O N H O P O H H O N O O H H O 2 O H a condensation reaction Click for a larger diagram of the nucleotide

  4. N H 2 N N O N H O P O N O O H O H The nucleotide formed from: deoxyribose, adeninine and phosphoric acid is This is called AMP ReplayClose window
