Quick Notes on Nucleoproteins |Biochemistry

Nucleoproteins are conjugated proteins contain­ing nucleic acids and basic protein-like protamine's or histones. In nucleoproteins there are salt-like combi­nation between positively charged basic proteins and negatively charged nucleic acids. Cytoplasm also contains ribonucleoprotein which is found particularly in ribosomes. All living cells contain nucleoproteins and some of the simplest systems, such as viruses, consist entirely of nucleoproteins. Protamine's: 1. These [...]

Difference between DNA and RNA | Nucleic Acid

Learn about the difference between DNA and RNA. Difference # Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA): 1. Except some viruses, RNA is non-genetic material taking part in protein synthesis. 2. RNA is found both in nucleus and cyto­plasm. 3. Usually single-stranded, in some viruses double stranded, e.g., in Reo viruses. 4. Three types - mRNA, rRNA and tRNA. 5. Sugar is present in [...]
