What is the bond that connects the sugar residue to the phosphate in DNA? and Bond And Brown 1105720027

What is the bond that connects the sugar residue to the phosphate in DNA?



And what is the bond that hold the organic base to the sugar molecule??


Bond best answer:

Answer by Peter S
The linear backbone of a DNA molecule consists of alternating sugar residues and phosphate groups. The bond linking an individual sugar residue to the neighbouring sugar residues is a 3′, 5′-phosphodiester bond. This means that a phosphate group links carbon atom 3′ of a sugar to carbon atom 5′ of the neighbouring sugar.

The bond joining the 1′-carbon of the deoxyribose sugar to the heterocyclic base is the N-glycosidic bond.
