Exercise 9
The structure given below is a nucleoside analog.
The structure given below is a nucleoside analog.     A. Name the nucleoside that the structure mimics. B. Imagine a strand of RNA containing this nucleoside analog (linked by phosphodiester bonds as in normal RNA). In a high-pH environment, is the RNA strand subject to hydrolysis where the nucleoside analog is present? Explain why or why not.
