The bases - the letters of the genetic alphabet - consist of the four nucleotides mentioned a page or two back: adenine, thiamine, guanine, and cytosine.
For example, you convert formaldehyde into a compound called formate, which helps make the nucleic acids adenine and guanine — two of the four building blocks of DNA.
举个例子,你把甲醛转化成一种叫做甲酸化合物,它能帮助生成核酸腺嘌呤和鸟嘌呤——这是 DNA 四个组成部分中两个。
In the first stage, the energized electrons from chlorophyll are used to create two vital energy--carrying molecules: ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate).
Nucleotides of DNA are made out of a sugar deoxyribose, a phosphate, and one of the four nuclear bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine or A, C, G, T for short.
This attaches methyl groups (a carbon atom and three hydrogens) to either adenine or cytosine, two of the four chemical bases that form the alphabet of DNA, depending on the gene involved.
