What is the difference between thymidine monophosphate and thymidine?

Answer 1

Thymidine is a nucleoSIDE.

Thymidine monophosphate is a nucleoTIDE. It is also called thymidylic acid. It is a component of DNA.

Here is thymidine

It consists of a nitrogenous base (pyrimidine) and a 5-carbon sugar (deoxyribose). Together, they make up a nucleoSIDE .

Here is thymidine monophosphate

It consists of a nitrogenous base (pyrimidine), 5 carbon sugar (deoxyribose), and a phosphate group (monophosphate/1 phosphate). Together, they make up a nucleoTIDE .

Thymidine monophosphate (TMP) is a nucleotide composed of thymine, a deoxyribose sugar, and a single phosphate group, whereas thymidine is a nucleoside composed of thymine and a deoxyribose sugar but lacking the phosphate group found in TMP.

Julian Aguilar

Thymidine monophosphate (TMP) is a nucleotide composed of thymine, a nitrogenous base, attached to a ribose sugar and a single phosphate group. Thymidine, on the other hand, is a nucleoside composed of thymine and ribose sugar, lacking the phosphate group found in TMP. Essentially, thymidine is the base component of thymidine monophosphate.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
