Glycine is the simplest amino acid and required for the synthesis of purines. Aspartate is required for the synthesis of pyrimidines. Glutamine and aspartate are required for the synthesis of both purines and pyrimidines. Lysine, leucine, alanine, histidine, methionine, tryptophan and alanine are not used as a precursor for the nucleotides.
