CompoundDescription
phosphoric acidconcise etchant is 37% H3PO4
guanosine monophosphateA guanine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety and found widely in nature.
adenineA purine base and a fundamental unit of ADENINE NUCLEOTIDES.
ammonium hydroxideThe hydroxy salt of ammonium ion. It is formed when AMMONIA reacts with water molecules in solution.
Adenosine TriphosphateAn adenine nucleotide containing three phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. In addition to its crucial roles in metabolism adenosine triphosphate is a neurotransmitter.
adenosine diphosphateAdenosine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate). An adenine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety at the 5'-position.
uridineA ribonucleoside in which RIBOSE is linked to URACIL.
uridine monophosphate5'-Uridylic acid. A uracil nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety in the 2', 3' or 5' position.
uridine diphosphateA uracil nucleotide containing a pyrophosphate group esterified to C5 of the sugar moiety.
adenosine monophosphateAdenine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety in the 2'-, 3'-, or 5'-position.
adenosineA nucleoside that is composed of ADENINE and D-RIBOSE. Adenosine or adenosine derivatives play many important biological roles in addition to being components of DNA and RNA. Adenosine itself is a neurotransmitter.
phosphoribosyl pyrophosphateThe key substance in the biosynthesis of histidine, tryptophan, and purine and pyrimidine nucleotides.
WaterA clear, odorless, tasteless liquid that is essential for most animal and plant life and is an excellent solvent for many substances. The chemical formula is hydrogen oxide (H2O). (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)
dihydrofolateRN given refers to (L)-isomer
guanosine diphosphateA guanine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety.
guanine
guanosineA purine nucleoside that has guanine linked by its N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of ribose. It is a component of ribonucleic acid and its nucleotides play important roles in metabolism. (From Dorland, 28th ed)
thymineOne of four constituent bases of DNA.
uracilOne of four nucleotide bases in the nucleic acid RNA.
ribose 1-phosphateRN given refers to (D)-isomer
RiboseA pentose active in biological systems usually in its D-form.
2-deoxyribose 1-phosphate, (alpha-d-erythro)-isomer
HydrogenThe first chemical element in the periodic table with atomic symbol H, and atomic number 1. Protium (atomic weight 1) is by far the most common hydrogen isotope. Hydrogen also exists as the stable isotope DEUTERIUM (atomic weight 2) and the radioactive isotope TRITIUM (atomic weight 3). Hydrogen forms into a diatomic molecule at room temperature and appears as a highly flammable colorless and odorless gas.
thymidineA nucleoside in which THYMINE is linked to DEOXYRIBOSE.
cytidine monophosphateCytidine (dihydrogen phosphate). A cytosine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety in the 2', 3' or 5' position.
cytidine diphosphateCytidine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate). A cytosine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. Synonyms: CRPP; cytidine pyrophosphate.
cytidineA pyrimidine nucleoside that is composed of the base CYTOSINE linked to the five-carbon sugar D-RIBOSE.
thymidine monophosphate5-Thymidylic acid. A thymine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the deoxyribose moiety.
thymidine 5'-diphosphatesee also record for thymidine 3',5'-diphosphate, RN 2863-04-9
2'-deoxyuridylic acidRN given refers to parent cpd
