Nucleosides are glycosylamines consisting of |FRAME: Bases| bound to a |FRAME: CPD0-1110 ribose| or |FRAME: 2-DEOXYRIBOSE| sugar via a β-glycosidic linkage. The nucleosides are called |FRAME: Ribonucleosides ribonucleosides| when the sugar is |FRAME: CPD0-1110 ribose|, and |FRAME: Deoxy-Ribonucleosides deoxyribonucleosides| when it is |FRAME: 2-DEOXYRIBOSE|. Common |FRAME: Ribonucleosides ribonucleosides| include |FRAME: CYTIDINE|, |FRAME: URIDINE|, |FRAME: ADENOSINE|, |FRAME: GUANOSINE| and |FRAME: INOSINE|. Examples of |FRAME: Deoxy-Ribonucleosides deoxyribonucleosides| include |FRAME: THYMIDINE| and |FRAME: DEOXYADENOSINE|. When nucleosides are phosphorylated on the sugar's primary alcohol group, the resulting phosphonucleosides are called |FRAME: Nucleotides nucleotides|.
