RNA and DNA are chiral molecules, their chirality is due to:RNA and DNA are chiral molecules, their chirality is due to:

Options

  1. Achiral bases
  2. Bchiral phosphate ester units
  3. CD-sugar component
  4. DL-sugar component

Correct answer

C. D-sugar component

Step-by-step solution

The chirality of DNA and RNA molecules are due to the presence of sugar components. RNA and DNA are chiral molecules, their chirality is due to:
Related Theory DNA have multiple chiral centres and are found as single enantiomers in nature. The DNA structure itself is chiral and exists as a single enantiomer.
