A TWO child average will not solve overpopulation. With a two child average per woman (or per man), total population would go up by about two billion more â to nine billion! â before it even levels off! And it would not decline below 8 billion for another 200 years!
Nucleic acids. Nucleotides can link together by the formation of phosphate ester bonds. The hydroxyl group of a phosphate on one nucleotide undergoes a condensation reaction with the hydroxyl group on the carbohydrate ring of another nucleotide. The process may continue, building up nucleic acid molecules. These are polymers called polynucleotides. Formation of a polynucleotide. Nucleic acids are the 'building blocks' of DNA and RNA. The structure of DNA. DNA is formed from two polynucleotide chains.
Nucleic Acid Binding Domains. The DNA-or RNA-binding function of a protein is localized in discrete conserved domains within its tertiary structure. An individual protein can have multiple repeats of the same nucleic acid binding domain or can have several different domains found within its structure. The identity of the individual domains and their relative arrangement are functionally important within the protein.
