Template talk:Nucleic acids

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I removed all the modified nucleosides from the table, since adding all of them would be ridiculous (100 in RNA alone). I also removed ribose from the list because it is a sugar not a nucleoside.

If someone wants to make a seperate list for naturally modified nucleosides that would be great. Hichris 16:03, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

A few of the last items were labelled nucleic acids when they are not really nucleic acids. Nucleic acids occur in the nuclei of cells, but molecules such as PNAs or Morpholinos are purely synthetic analogues. They should either be labelled as such or removed from this list entirely (though I think they are of sufficient interest to be retained). JonMoulton 23:37, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
