This is a tutorial/lecture on the basic characteristics of Nucleic Acids. If you follow Salmonella Place's tutorials, we will be posting individual tutorials on DNA and RNA. This tutorial is good for classes such as Molecular and Cellular Biology (Medical School), General Biology, Genetics, etc.

These are the topics covered:
- Basic characteristics of Nucleic Acids and functions;
- Nucleotide structure;
- Different bases (pyrimidines and purines);
- Phosphodiester Bonds;
- Nucleic Acids found in nature, other than DNA and RNA.

Feel free to ask any questions if you need anything clarified.
We would love to help!
