The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose. ... Nucleotides in DNA contain four different nitrogenous bases: Thymine, Cytosine, Adenine, or Guanine. There are two groups of bases: Pyrimidines: Cytosine and Thymine each have a single six-member ring.

All the following statements about destruction of cyclins are true EXCEPT: ubiquitin targets Cdks. destruction is carried out by

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

ubiquitin targets CDKs

Explanation:

Cyclins are named such because they undergo a constant cycle of synthesis and degradation during cell division. When cyclins are synthesized, they act as an activating protein and bind to Cdks forming a cyclin-Cdk complex. This complex then acts as a signal to the cell to pass to the next cell cycle phase.

Cyclins drive the events of the cell cycle by partnering with a family of enzymes called the cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks). A lone Cdk is inactive, but the binding of a cyclin activates it, making it a functional enzyme and allowing it to modify target proteins.

Now that you have identified the components of DNA, can you describe how these components bind together to form a DNA molecule?

omeli [17]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is attached below.

Answer:

1. DNA is the polymer of deoxyribonucleotides that contain the nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and phosphate group. The phosphate is attached with the 3 C position of the deoxyribose sugar. This leads to teh formation of phosphodiester bond.

2. The DNA backbone consists of phosphate and sugar. The nitrogenous bases are inserted inside the DNA molecule. These nitrogenous bases are linked together by the hydrogen bonds.

3. The adenine binds requires two hydrogen bonds to bind with thymine. This provide complementary nature to the DNA molecule. Uracil is present instead of thymine in RNA .

4. The guanine binds requires three hydrogen bonds to bind with cytosine. More amount of energy is required to break their bonds.
