Nucleotides in DNA contain four different nitrogenous bases: Thymine, Cytosine, Adenine, or Guanine. There are two groups of bases: Pyrimidines: Cytosine and Thymine each have a single six-member ring. Purines: Guanine and Adenine each have a double ring made up of a five-atom ring attached by one side to a six-atom ring. The order of nucleotides along DNA polymers encode the genetic information carried by DNA.
Each nucleotide comprises a nitrogenous base, a pentose sugar and a phosphate group. Nitrogenous bases make the backbone of the nucleic acids. Nitrogenous bases are mainly divided into two types; (a) pyrimidines, which include cytosine, uracil and thymine, and (b) purines, which include adenine and guanine. These bases exhibit specific base pairings; adenine always pairs with thymine (in DNA) or uracil (in RNA) while guanine pairs with cytosine.
