The Structure and Functionof Nucleic AcidsRevised Bryce* and D. Pacini *Department of Biological Sciences, Napier University, Edinburgh, and Bolton School Boy s Division, BoltonThe Biochemistry Across the School Curriculum Group (BASC) was setup by the Biochemical Society in 1985. Its membership includes edu-cation professionals as well as Society members with an interest inschool science education. Its first task has been to produce this series ofbooklets, designed to help teachers of syllabuses which have a high bio-chemical topics covered by this series include: Essential Chemistry forBiochemistry; Enzymes and their Role in Biotechnology; Metabolism;Immunology; Photosynthesis;Recombinant DNA Technology; BiologicalMembranes; and The Biochemical Basis of information on the work of BASC and these booklets is availablefrom the Education Officer at the Biochemical Society, 59 PortlandPlace, London W1N on the content of this booklet will be welcomed by the SeriesEditor Mrs D.
Basically, nucleic acids can be subdivided into two types: deoxy-ribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). Both DNA and RNA have been shown to consist of three groups of molecules: pentose (5-carbon-atom) sugars; organic bases; and inorganic phosphate. Sugars There are only two types of sugar present in nucleic acids, ribose which
