In writing nucleotide sequences for nucleic acids, the convention is to write the nucleotides (usually using the one-letter abbreviations for the bases, shown in Figure 28.1.4) starting with the nucleotide having a free phosphate group, which is known as the 5′ end, and indicate the nucleotides in order.

The conventional numbering system used for DNA and RNA is shown here for reference - the prime (') symbol is used to distinguish the sugar carbon numbers from the base carbon numbers. The two 'hooks' on the RNA or DNA monomer are the 5' phosphate and the 3' hydroxyl on the sugar, which in DNA polymer synthesis are linked by a 'phosphate diester' group.

Nucleotides, composed of a sugar, phosphate group, and nitrogenous base, are the building blocks of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). The chapter discusses how nucleotides link to form nucleic acids, the differences between DNA and RNA, and the roles these biomolecules play in genetic information storage and transmission. Understanding nucleotides is crucial for comprehending cellular processes and molecular biology.
