Nucleotide - Wikipedia
Nucleotides are organic molecules composed of a nitrogenous base, a pentose sugar and a phosphate. They serve as monomeric units of the nucleic acid polymers – deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), both of which are essential biomolecules within all life-forms on Earth.

Nucleotide | Description, Types, Function, & Facts | Britannica
A nucleotide is any member of a class of organic compounds in which the molecular structure comprises a nitrogen-containing unit (base) linked to a sugar and a phosphate group.

NCBI Nucleotide - National Library of Medicine
The Nucleotide database is a database of nucleic acid sequences. These sequences come from laboratories around the world that submit their data to one of a set of repositories, including GenBank, which is maintained by NCBI.

Nucleotide - National Human Genome Research Institute
A nucleotide is the basic building block of nucleic acids (RNA and DNA). A nucleotide consists of a sugar molecule (either ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA) attached to a phosphate group and a nitrogen-containing base.

Nucleotide Definition, Structure, and Function
What Is a Nucleotide? A nucleotide is an organic molecule that serves as the building block for nucleic acids like DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid). These molecules consist of three primary components: a nitrogenous base, a sugar molecule, and one or more phosphate groups.

Nucleotide base - Wikipedia
Nucleotide bases[1] (also nucleobases, nitrogenous bases) are nitrogen -containing biological compounds that form nucleosides, which, in turn, are components of nucleotides, with all of these monomers constituting the basic building blocks of nucleic acids.

Nucleotide: Structure, Types, and Biological Functions
A nucleotide is a pentose sugar linked to a nitrogenous base and a phosphate molecule. Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA. Figure: Nucleotide. The nitrogenous bases are derived from two-parent compounds – purines and pyrimidines.

Nucleotide - Definition, Structure (3 Parts), Examples & Function
A nucleotide is an organic molecule that is the building block of DNA and RNA. They also have functions related to cell signaling, metabolism, and enzyme reactions. A nucleotide is made up of three parts: a phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base.

Definition of nucleotide - NCI Dictionary of Genetics Terms
A nucleotide is made up of a nitrogen-containing base (adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine in DNA, and adenine, guanine, uracil, and cytosine in RNA), a phosphate group, and a sugar molecule (deoxyribose in DNA, and ribose in RNA). DNA and RNA are polymers made up of many nucleotides.
