Deoxynucleoside analogues such as 5-aza-2-deoxycytidine (depicted by Z) are converted into the triphosphate inside S-phase cells and are incorporated in place of cytosine into DNA. Ribonucleosides ...
(A) Nucleoside triphosphates serve as a substrate for DNA polymerase, according to the mechanism shown on the top strand. Each nucleoside triphosphate is made up of three phosphates (represented ...
Inosine is a nucleoside that occurs naturally in transfer RNAs (tRNAs) and is essential for proper RNA translation. It is commonly found at the wobble position of anticodons, allowing for greater ...
