Hydroxyl

... has nothing to do with the metabolism part. As for the first question, I can only guess that it is a more favorable reaction to phosphorylate a hydroxyl group on the chain (carbon 1) in a ketose sugar than any of the hydroxyl groups inside the ring of an aldose sugar (aldose sugars like glucose ...

... which in turn indicate the carbon numbers in the DNA's sugar backbone. The 5' carbon has a phosphate group attached to it and the 3' carbon a hydroxyl group. This asymmetry gives a DNA strand a "direction". For example, DNA polymerase works in a 5' -> 3' direction, that is, it ...

... Observations acquired from the experiment were done after the cell was exposed to hydrogen peroxide which could likely make the active metabolite hydroxyl radical and thereby exposing the cell's structures. The study was conducted by adding the peroxynitrite to the cells using standard DMEM (Dulbecco's ...

Hello everyone, I'm new. I'm using ChemSketch for a lab. I'm trying to build Hydroxyl, so I found the Hydrogen atom, put it on the page, then found the Oxygen atom and put it close to the Hydrogen atom....but I cant find where the covalent bond button is to connect ...
