Why Is DNA Called Deoxyribonucleic Acid?
The name of DNA is attributed to its structure. They have a sugar and phosphate backbone. The ‘deoxyribo’ part corresponds to the pentose sugar it is composed of which is bound to its base while the nucleic acid corresponds to the bases and phosphate. The deoxyribose is missing an OH-group at position 2 of the sugar ring. Hence, the name literally indicates ‘lack of oxygen’.
