What is the difference between the nucleoside and nucleotide?

Answer»

A nitrogeneous base is linked to the pentose sugar through a N-glycosidic linkage to form a nucleoside such as adenosine or deoxy adenosine. And when a phosphate group is linked to 5 OH of a nucleoside through phosphoester linkage, a corrosponding nucleotide is formed.
